Kick Boxing Trap...
Gee, where's all the Straight Blast Gym guys? I expected to hear some criticisms about training being a waste of time if you don't go with a fully resisting opponent!
I have to agree with many of the points of the article. I have progressed much faster when the pressure and speed is held constant at 50-75% of full sparring, leaving me room to persue the timing and execution of specific techniques and tactics. I believe it is most important for beginers and intermediates, and anyone trying to acquire new methods to work techniques in sparring in a gradually escalating manor. But I do agree that it should also go toa point of a resisting non coreographed sparring.
