yup, you will never learn properly if you are trying to fight for real everytime you train. you have to slow it down, break it down, analyze, and experiment. cant do all that if you are going 100% everytime you train.
even bjj guys take time to drill and flow train in order to become more familiar with positions, techniques and concepts.
