Combat Arts as the Ultimate Sport

By Greg Mihovich

Everybody trains in Combat Arts, like Muay Thai and Judo for different reasons.
The reasons might change as the time goes along. When I was a teenager it
was important to me to gain self confidence and the ability to protect myself in
frequent street confrontations on the mean streets of Russia. Plus it was cool
and exiting to practice all these punches, throws and submissions I saw in the
movies!

As I grew older and more mature, I saw in Combat Arts a great vehicle for
continuous and never-ending self-improvement and self-discovery. You always
learn something, always have to find new ways and better the old ones. Also, it’s
a great way to get friends, as there is no better way to bond with somebody, than
to work hard, sweat and bleed alongside with him on the road to perfection!












Now, as I have been a Fitness Professional for the last five years, and consider
myself, among other things, a biomechanist – a human movement engineer if
you wish, Combat Arts attract me from a standpoint of studying the unlimited
potential, possibilities and practical applications of human movement. In combat
every situation is unique and demands a beautiful blend of mental concentration,
spiritual confidence, technical expertise and physical ability. And all of it applied
in real time under adrenaline pressure against another human (or humans) who
are trying to accomplish similar objectives! It is the ultimate playground (yes, it is
a lot of fun!) for a development of a complete individual.

It is also a great workout blended with technical practice, which means that you
are not counting reps but having fun, while getting into great shape. In Muay Thai,
for example, you spend countless rounds kicking, kneeing, punching, elbowing
and grappling against the resistance of the bags, pads and your partners, while
in Judo you basically squat, lunge, twist, pull and deadlift your partner’s
bodyweight the whole training session! No training session on a treadmill or, god
forbid, machines comes even close!












My point is: whatever your reasons are, if you want to learn a valuable skill, get
confident, get in great shape and have fun or meet new friends come to the
Underground Gym to get some world-class training in Combat Arts! If you leave
far, find a place to train and do it! You have nothing to lose, except for some
excess body fat and much to gain!
