And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Learning how to move like that.....it takes hours and hours and hours of training with a really good trainer, to where a completely artificial motion becomes muscle memory. Something else. Ali had it. I'll have to watch some of his bouts.
I was told move your ass not your head. Believe it or not if you're in a fighting stance and you move your ass to the left your head goes right and vise versa.
These are fairly common moves in many martial arts, especially the kung fu based versions. When I was working on higher belts, we spared partial or full contact. I would do a TON of cardio because many of the higher belts were better than I was and I knew it. I'd do a lot of this (also we did a lot of sliding around behind the opponent with very fast slides/shuffle steps) until the opponent got tired and I could take advantage.
It took running more than 10 miles a day to get the stamina because this is anything but easy. He's more likely to tire himself out before his opponent if he isn't in superior shape. This is just a good way to tire out an opponent who may have a very devastating punch that you really don't want to take too many times.
Alvarez is an excellent boxer.
ReplyDeleteNot seeing anything easy there.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to take their word for it.
