How to combat Burnout in the Martial Arts? | ft.

[@hard2hurt]

Fun... yeah... so fun.

[@metrolinamartialarts]

Sorry buddy 😅

[@rabbitshady499]

As long as Mike is the one getting low kicked, it is always gonna be fun.

[@fsnicolas]

Just as well. Cuz you H2H. 😉 Good job, Icy Mike!

[@danielteixeira309]

Mike is just go to the body and make you my B!!!! Anoying little man

[@gw1357]

There's an additional layer to burnout as you age. You physically don't recover as fast, get injured easier, etc. But you also (or at least I do) feel anxious when you're not training because you feel like your athleticism is fading and not using it is a waste.

[@metrolinamartialarts]

Yeah exactly. Luckily only 37 so I've still got some recovery left in me!

[@ComicusFreemanius]

My rotator cuff isn't torn! Your rotator cuff is torn! Who?! What?! Stop asking!

[@JKDVIPER]

That’s why I’ve ahh kg easy tried to focus on hitting hard as possible and accurate as possible.

[@dacedebeer2697]

Yup I don't get burned out so much as I get injured. The forced breaks are horrible, I feel like a junkie in need of a fix, and I also have experience at that so I know what I mean.

[@yourleftisttesticle]

If you arent competing, just ask your doc for low dose testosterone to maintain your levels. It can help you maintain recovery levels as you age. You'll still drop, as the doctor isnt gonna give you as much as like bodybuilders take, but the drop will be way slower for a lot of men.

[@88Spint]

Best way to combat burnout is funny cat videos, doggy cuddles and a sugar rush. Standup comedy works well too.

[@metrolinamartialarts]

Haha all good methods!!

[@metrolinamartialarts]

Thank you!

[@NMAAmartialarts]

Great topic! This is a really good reminder for anyone who trains, but I think especially for school owners. I recently took a day away from teaching to focus on personal errands and get a bit of a recharge. My students were supportive, and I reminded myself that taking a break now and then helps me maintain the proper quality of instruction they deserve.

[@metrolinamartialarts]

Yeah - that's always a struggle because you want to be there for your students. But if you're burntout - then you're never there. Thanks for watching!

[@lejo1233]

this is such an important topic..thank you for making this video..i sometimes struggle with the feeling of "deflation"as you discribe it or not beeing motivated some days.i always felt so bad about it so i couldnt even enjoy the day off training.

[@metrolinamartialarts]

Rest is so important - but so is being present. Thanks for watching!

[@JaybayJay]

I just remember all the times I've been attacked, the fights I've been in or the guy that came within 2 millimeters of killing me when he stabbed me twice in the leg and I used my Matsubayashi Ryu to disarm him and save my life.. That helps.. Or you could put on women's aerobics.. That get's the blood pumping..

[@metrolinamartialarts]

@@JaybayJay you need to live a less dangerous life! 🤣

[@JaybayJay]

@@metrolinamartialarts Can't happen lol.. I grew up in biker central Ontario Canada.. home of the biggest massacre.. research the bandido massacre, you'll see where I grew up.. I knew the guys who killed a friend of mine to start it and the guy that got killed and this is a small town area but it's got it's numbskulls. I don't know all the bikers, but i grew up with their kids, we all went to the same school back then. But my brother was my biggest bully so it didn't matter where i lived. I started tkd at 10, did a few classes then I quit cause of the cartoon the Raccoons. I was teaching Matsubayashi ryu at 15 as Senpai at white. The fist time I saw my older brother attacked, he was 12, the older boy was 18 and they went through a store window, and then had a glass knife fight right in the street while adults watched. And my brother won that fight, and he was my bully so it's not hard for me to find the will to train. He used to attack me all the time. Fear has always been a very powerful motivator for me. It's part of why I've never lost a street fight in 37 years lol.

[@metrolinamartialarts]

@JaybayJay won't happen* - you can like, move. 😅 I get what you're saying - but I still think for a lot of people fear is a detractor not a motivator.

I’ve been pretty spoiled by my dojo. I train upwards of 5 days a week, 3 most weeks, but one of those days is always a Monday which is kumite night. So the training is always varied even though it’s karate.

[@jmiahTNT]

KZbin famous now lol. Good vid brother, burnout is definitely one of those things that we don't discuss a ton. It does help to prioritize something else as well as having a different goal to strive for. Been doing that myself recently, focusing more on answering questions in BJJ and being a better pad holder in Kickboxing. Not really training myself or lifting heavy. 3 weeks off does wonders for the mind and body.

[@metrolinamartialarts]

We made it!! Lol It's like your body was asking for rest! Lol

Thanks for making this video. Been feeling mentally fatigued after I won my first amateur Muay Thai fight. I’ve been training for 5 months and have competed 3 times, 2 point competitions prior to my debut. My coach is trying to get me to fight again soon and I honestly don’t want to but I don’t want to come off as a bitch in his eyes since he’s old school. I just haven’t been feeling as great in training as I used to and have been a lot more tired than usual.

[@rabbitshady499]

What a genius way to get to the point of the whole idea. Brilliant concept and very entertaining. Your advice applies to life in general, if u r not having fun, it won't last and you will hate your life for not doing what you enjoy ❤

Good timing with this video. I didn't make my level-3 Muay Thai team, which I was training almost every day for. Once I didn't make the team, I found myself skipping class and just going in to work on my own in between classes. I'm pretty much ready to get back in there and work with level-2 after a few days of avoiding class. Thanks for reminding me to have fun! We're going to make level-2 even cooler than level-3, watch!!

Great topic. I've been training since 1987, & sometimes it's good to take a week off. I will be going to NC, for the 1st time, this August. There's a big martial arts event in Salisbury NC, that my wife & I are attending.

[@metrolinamartialarts]

I'm 20 minutes from there!

[@HariOmRadhaKrishna]

@@metrolinamartialarts One cure for Burnout is attending Seminars/Workshops! Throughout the 90's, while attending the local Tae Kwon Do studio, I'd take seasonal trips to big cities nearby that were hosting M A events. Usually Ninjutsu masters in Milwaukee & Dan Inosanto JKD in Minneapolis, but also Hapkido & new arts like BJJ. Fun to try new martial arts without the pressure of remembering the material for a future test.

[@szymszyn6714]

I think there is another one - train your mental health. Everybody has an episode of something hitting them hard. At the beginning training is fun. Then after few days it's still fun but the hard thing is getting deeper and deeper in your mind, to the point where you are not thinking about training anymore. It also causes some kind of burnout because "why would I do this when it's not fun anymore because of the hard thing". Training your mental health will gladly improve your immunity to this kind of things, but when they actually appear - try to talk to someone. It could be your coach (they are most of the time older and dealt with some similar problems as you, just trust them), your friends (even if they don't get your point as good as you, sometimes even talking it out can help a lot) or even a therapist (they took a lot of knowledge just to be here to help you, especially the sport therapists could get your point). Stay safe and have fun everyone :)

[@whaleship]

i've been feeling the burnout approaching recently and i think this helped me catch it early. i just couldn't really figure out what it was, feeling listless when usually i'd be having a blast, no usual surges of adrenaline, the dopamine just isn't hitting right and i was kinda confused as to why. Heck, even my peers were asking if i was alright and i just didnt have an answer because nothing really changed or had me feeling down in life.

[@metrolinamartialarts]

Oh dang. Now that you're aware - what will you do?

[@whaleship]

​@@metrolinamartialarts I took some time to realign myself w the things i really wanted to focus on and found that sharing this piece of my life with a friend was really good for me If i could describe the feeling I was having, I'd say it was almost like being lost and I knew the general direction I needed to go but a thick fog just slowly creeping in and clouding my mind had me stumbling around in a circle. I got swept up in the motions of routine and was just autonomous for a bit. So I brought a friend to training a few times and honestly seeing the gears turning and clicking as he learned and got smacked around was really satisfying. Realized that I have a lot I can teach while having so much I can still learn or improve at and then having chats after like "yea i remember the first time i got popped in the nose" 😂 it was like a breath of fresh air

[@whaleship]

goofing around and having fun again was a nice change of pace that i really needed

I been training like 6 years now started off 4-5 days I do 6 days a week now even when I don't feel like going I go cause I know the days I don't go my future opponents at the gym going super hard but honestly when my body tells me it's ok to take an extra days off plus the extra day off all I think about is going back to training .. earned a subscriber btw :p

[@icarusswitkes6833]

I have no motivation to go to hema right now. I've been doing longsword for more than a year now and it's kinda just hit me at this point, just how much time you have to put into this in order to actually be good with a sword. If I go I know I'll just be there doing drills that don't come naturally and aren't fun. So I usually say that I'll go, but then procrastinate and get there 30 minutes late and just decide to wait 30 more minutes to go in. And then I do the dagger and grappling classes because those are always fun because they come more naturally to me. I think longsword will be fun in the future if I keep training to the point where I know what I'm doing, but I don't know if that much work is really worth it to me.

[@metrolinamartialarts]

Keep trucking- you'll find your fun again!

[@richardpeterson4440]

Hey, love the channel love the video! As a martial artist who fell deeply in love with weightlifting I would encourage you to get rid of the pad and squat with shoes that don’t squish. It might be a bit uncomfortable for a while but ultimately you want to be as stable as possible to get the most strength adaptation.

[@metrolinamartialarts]

My arms don't allow for me to properly back squat - I'll keep the pad. The shoes are normally for running - looking to get some good weightlifting shoes. Thanks for watching!

[@richardpeterson4440]

That is the best reason I’ve ever heard! There is a specialty bar called a safety squat bar. It puts the handles in front of you and was originally developed for powerlifters who injured a shoulder. Depending on how restricted you are I could be a great option. But if the pad works well more power to you!

[@metrolinamartialarts]

@Richard Peterson I have a kabuki trap bar and their safety squat (transformer) bar is on my wishlist

[@badart3204]

Ngl I burned out and getting my shoulder ripped with an 8 month recovery was my exit from martial arts. Ngl don’t regret it. I learned enough to defend myself and restrain drunk muscular people which was useful. I think martial arts can be a lifelong journey but it’s not for everyone and prioritizing other hobbies after achieving basic competence to be more well rounded in life can be good.

[@metrolinamartialarts]

Definitely agree

What is the background flutey music throughout the video, specifically at the 5 minute mark going into a talky section? It's really nice and emotion evoking.

3:36 couple rules of thumb. 1. HARD WORK isn’t always SMART WORK. 2. BEING IN SHAPE doesn’t win a fight. 3. THINKING a MARTIAL ART has you all set self defense wise is a misconception. This is why we ought not boast. Ever. 4. PLAYFIGHTING WITH FRIENDS is no way to gage where we are at PHYSICALLY. When it comes to DEFENSE. 💯☺️🤛

[@metrolinamartialarts]

What does that have to do with burnout?

[@JKDVIPER]

@@metrolinamartialarts well because people will train the wrong way for a long time. And the consequences are pretty serious. Working out too much thinking physically fit is tough, thinking more work is good work. Not getting enough rest to recharge ones tank. And of course. These are just common misconceptions. Plus the added danger of being burned out as the real life situation comes into play, and now we have a hard time during crunch time.

[@metrolinamartialarts]

@@JKDVIPER I see. So, overworking can lead to burnout.

[@JKDVIPER]

@@metrolinamartialarts ya but the overall point was. Why do we train at all if it doesn’t work? Number 2 was, don’t be of the mind that being in tip top shape means you’re ready for crunch time. (A REAL FIGHT) Meaning, we are training hits, we are training grappling, obviously for some reason other than looking cool right? And lastly, being SUPER TIRED in a burn out state is exactly the wrong medicine if you are concerned about needing a defense out there in the real world. All this has to do with YOU WINDING UP with a VALUABLE PRODUCT at the end of the day. Not lying to oneself.

I saw you in instagram sparring with one famouse savate master I forgot his name, he has some good video . he took them down I think

[@metrolinamartialarts]

Prof Nicolas Saignac! I'm up there somewhere haha

[@hotpopcorncake]

@@metrolinamartialarts Cool. Btw the way how different is the training that savate to jkd? Because from what I noticed savate has more arsenal in the kicks and stuff.

[@metrolinamartialarts]

@Supersperg yeah - Savate is a sport so it has a variety of attacks where JKD is more direct and less kicks.

[@Agiranto]
