there has been alot of good training going on i see,

i like always training with realistic methods, me and my 2 training partners just made 3 training weapons, simlar to bokens but more practical, we sawed the heads off 3 golf clubs, wraped and tied layers of heavy material around it, then secured it all, they were wieghted nicely also could be used fully without serious damage while doing full contact weapons sparing, 1 on 1, 2 on 1, free for all, scenario training, one armed 2 unnarmed etc, they do hurt if you get hit in the face with them though,

we customise alot of weapons so they are practical to train with, without killing each other, but not softening the training so it is unrealistic. we cross train in many styles, and bring them all to the table when sparring armed or unnarmed, i must say full contact weapons sparring is really fun, and very productive at the same time, we all train seperately t different places, and all train together aswell and teach each other what we learn on our own, we dont go anywhere fancy to train, just on a big patch of grass over the back of our blocks,

i like this thread it has alot of good realistic training methods and advice,

peace,
