Becoming a Pro Fighter: The Training Regimen

Becoming a Pro Fighter: The Training Regimen

Some days I’m going to spend time on the heavy bag (or in the laboratory as I like to call it), and other days I’ll spend my time working on the focus mitts. My friend Shannon helps me out with that—despite only doing it for a short time she’s the best mitt holder I’ve ever had.

Hopefully as I progress I’ll be spending more and more time with my coachs and getting a lot of quality sparring in.

You Can Reach Your Maximum Potential With Subliminal Messages

Our minds are unique, every one of us is different, and as we grow and learn things we all progress slightly differently. We are all different, and perhaps some of us receive positive reinforcement in school and go on to do well academically. Others revel in sports, they receive constructive praise for their sporting achievements and really put in the practice - on the way developing the proper mindset and patterns of thinking required for sports success. Sadly, people also receive negative feedback - being told they are no good academically, or that they won't ever be successful in a certain area. This causes a negative reaction in our brains. Some neuron pathways close down and others open up, but essentially we limit our very own potential. This is a small amount of self sabotage, but mainly a safety mechanism - to safeguard ourselves from further negative comments, feelings and inner thoughts.
