Improving Mental and Physical Ability Through Aggressiveness Exercises

Aggressiveness exercises are a great way to improve our mental and physical abilities. In our next issues we will cover a few of them.

Drill:

In pairs one partner tries to make the other complete a full turn (360 degrees). This can be done by either turning them while the 'active' partner stays put, by turning together full circle or a little of both.

Tips:

1. We can grab pull and push any parts of the body.

2. It is very important we maintain a play mentality.

3. We can decide to work in time sets, meaning for example, that for 3 minutes, we continue the drill no matter how many times one partner completed a full spin. In general, the amount of sets, their duration and the length of time of each set, should be decided upon according to our abilities and endurance level both mentally and physically. Furthermore, we must make sure we keep changing shoulders in order to avoid working unequally on either side.

4. It is important that we look for the aggressiveness inside the exercise rather than the techniques which can be applied. We shouldn't look to achieve our goal through joint-locks or strikes of any sort.

5. When we finish the exercise it is very important to stretch our whole body.
