    Everything in fighting puts stress on the body. Stress is good to an extent, it forces the body to adapt. But too much stress, or stress in the wrong places, can cause the body to adapt in the wrong ways or to outright fail. The body needs to be viewed as a system, or really as a lot of systems working together. Stress on one part affects other parts. There has to be a balance, otherwise incorrect movement patterns develop, the wrong muscles get used, proprioception gets distorted, etc.

    That's why workouts need to be varied and complete. You can't neglect any muscles, or others will become underdeveloped. For example a big problem in boxing is people not working the pulling muscles of the upperbody. This leads to shoulders that are hunched and internally rotated, which causes elbows to flare, the chin to raise and the chance of injury to skyrocket. The lats and the biceps need to be strong to counteract the changes caused by throwing so many punches, otherwise posture will be wrong.

    That's also where stretching and mobility work becomes very important.

    Jms, its something ive been very aware of for a number of years, the stress thing. As regards impact, interestingly how it affects the CNS, reading papers scientific ones that were given to me, by guys at the uni. Surprisingly the major impact is to the spine, because of the thing on top,the head. Plus pre season in sports soccer and such, there are 38% injuries occur because of overuse. I find that interesting.Plus other things that compound the problem.

    REPETITION IS A KILLER. random variation is needed to inject into the routines. unpredictable movements, need to be sprinkled in liberally. Repeating a sequence more than 4 or 5 times in a stressful way will take out of balance the perfect proportion of the whole body working in synch. Do different things everyday. Mix it up, sideways, diagonally, upside down, do crazy shit, sprint backwards uphill, do situps upside down, to backups instead of situps, walk like a fish on your side then back on the other side, strengthen the shin muscles, the face muscles, make sure the whole body is getting stressed equally, insanely, it feels good like an octopus all over you

    I honesty wouldn't be surprised if that number was higher. Some muscles get overused, some never get used, people do the same shit every day and never grow.

    Thats the figure, but it goes deeper. Pushing it, causes impact and stress, which creates cortisol, which breaks down muscle bone and myelin,

    Going up stairs on all fours would have to be more reasonable than the usual.

    Main cause for that is eyesight believe it or not. More i look into it the more obvious it becomes, excuse the pun . It was explained to me years ago by a friend, who was head of osteopathy at Harvard, knew what he was talking about.

    I understand that. What makes it clear is when I go shooting a pistol. I am right handed, but left eye dominant. In trying to shoot that way, I can feel my body being misaligned; I had to teach myself to shoot left handed, and it was very easy.

    Not really, its about what we do plus overtraining and what it causes.

    I think that if you are feeling tension you are doing it wrong; the only moment of being tight is just before impact.
    I think that there is too much of a 'no pain no gain' mentality. If you hurt you are doing it wrong.

    Funny enough Greys the last 15% of movement, is how we are designed to work. to our optimum.

    I'm not sure I understand what you mean there.
