Spring Training

4/2/2013

Every year it always seems like it takes spring so long to arrive. I love being outdoors and training in the fresh air. One of my favorite activities for training at the Olympic Training Center was going outside and pummeling and drilling arm drags and other standing techniques on the grass. We would work our positioning and our standing attacks outdoors where we could see the sun and feel the breeze. Those were good times. 

Since then I've adopted some unique methods for outdoor training including lifting heavy rocks, pull ups on the local park equipment, and using my bike inner tubes to practice throws and sprawling defensive techniques. Training outdoors every now and then keeps things fresh and helps you adapt to new environments. Obviously there are some techniques that are less effective outdoors but I encourage all of you to take your grappling and wrestling training outside.
