hi
hi i would just like to add somethings to the posts that everyone has got on this toppic. If thats all right. I'm new to this so i don't know much about posts. I beleave that adding exta wieght to any tipe of trainning like all of you is verry good, not only for the factor of changing things up but for the beneficial asspects of doing this. I always tell my students that by changing the wight that they use they not only learn how to contol what it is that there using but by doing this they will learn a copple of other things as well.
1 they will learn about momentum of the weapon as well as of there boddy.
2 they will learn how power changes with other weights and how they can delivered power though it differently with each weight.
3 it will also help them with there movements as well as with their stances.
4 I also lit them know that with changing the weight of something they now change what part of their body they use to generate power, speed, and control with. ( lets face it with out either one of these 3 things the weapon that were trainning with is useless.)
5 this is the last thing that i let them know is that by changing the weight of the weapon it will also change the persons balance.
These are the 5 things that I let and encourage my student to learn from when they change the weight of the weapons that they train with. I beleave that if you understand these 5 things then you'll be able to understand the princeables of any weapon on mater the weight.
