Heres art extracts from an written by Drew Guest for Blitz magazine Australia. This thread accomanies the one I also made about adrenaline and possible techniques for training to familiarize yourself with the effects of 'fight or flight.' To Go or to Go Off Fear and The Fight or Flight Response Time seems to slow down and it seems you are looking through another�s eyes. You can�t think properly and repeat, �This isn�t happening� or similar over and over in your mind. Your pupils ...

Adrenaline and familiarisation techniques

Shaun — Sat, 03 Jan 2009 16:08:13 GMT

As I�m sure you would agree, one of the hardest things to overcome in a physical street confrontation is the affects of adrenaline and that �fight or flight� mechanism. The most skilful person in the gym can see their technique go to pot on the street. Obviously it would be impossible to resist the affect of adrenaline completely but what�s the best way of training to cope with it.

Again I�m not sure if it was entirely necessary and might have been avoided but it wasn�t and the boy did well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKdZgeesw68&feature=related

Will to win

A good athlete will tell you they train hard despite the pain, despite the burn. A Great athlete will tell you they train because of the burn. Years ago when I played rugby what got me so far (professional trials and even England training camps) wasn�t my amazing skill level. But a will to win and an inner voice that said in no uncertain terms �we are winning this game of rugby today. Irrespective.� I liked that voice, it inspired me to county final games and national semi finals, it helped me ...
