WHAT! No boxing in the martial arts? We have enough boxes as it is.
Although it might be hard to spend 70% of your day outside, so for you hard-core boxers, you can flip the strategy and get 30% of your day, week, month or year – OUTSIDE. The quick-fix solution is to attend one of our camps if your year is full of boxes.
I too have spent many years enjoying the benefits of a well-equipped martial arts box.
Let’s think about the reality that we already have quite a few boxes taking control of our lives as it is: Fact is, if you live a normal life, you migrate from one type of box to another.
When you go to Starbucks, you like the fact that this particular box, has what you are looking for.
What is in that box determines its value and level of importance in our now traditionally trained materialistic lives.
You probably get some time in the outdoors if you travel from one box to another.
If you lock yourself in a box without new air coming in, you would die from a lack of oxygen.
Common sense would state that the bigger your box, the safer you are.
Now consider removing the box altogether and you provide the body with more oxygen.
What can you do to have a healthier box? You can take a step closer to being outside.
Does your training center have windows and are they open? Does your training center have airflow? You need a window / open door on one side of the room as well as the other.
Are you spending more time in the gym on a treadmill killing your cells when you could be running outside at the park near the trees, by a lake or through a river? Outer Space and why we need it If fresh air is not enough to get you outside, consider the abundant amount of space that an outdoor training location can provide.
Space is key for Martial Science students, as we like to have room for sparring and weapons training.
With a park setting, you have the best martial arts training center one could ask for.
You have grass, which is a perfect natural martial arts training mat.
As kids, we played a lot outside, but as we grew older, we are conditioned to spend more time inside or on a box.
The typical life of an adult is simply transferring from one box to another; sleep in the bed box, take a shower in a box, drive to work in a box, sit in a box behind a box inside an even larger box, go to dinner in a box, go back to the big box home to sit on a box in front of the visual box.
Sure, the above changes a bit as we challenge the system – we fly in a unique box, we call our friends with a cool new box and I am writing this article on a tiny multi-box.
I am looking forward to going to the book box today and sit in a movie box eating a snack from a junk box.
