Im still reading stuff on the site...
I train with SBG so ill share what i believe to be aliveness.Aliveness means that what you do has timing energy(resistance) and motion.If your boxing and your standing there in place not using any footwork...then what you are doing is not alive.If you practice a lockflow...with no resistance then its not alive.It needs all three elements to be alive....if its missing any of the three its not alive.Progressive resistance is a big part of Aliveness as well.Progressive resistance is known to us as the I method.For more on aliveness and the I method check out www.roninathletics.com
