Lead with Variety

3/13/2021

0 Comments

 
Over time, as one might expect, my training regime has changed.  What guides me now and what I have found to be most beneficial is variety, doing something different every day and not necessarily on schedule.  I always want to keep the mind-body guessing so that it never knows what is coming.

​My categories of training are as follows:
Strength training
Flexibility training
Mind training
Energy training
​Agility training.
Martial training

The specifics of routines will necessarily cross over these categories.  For example, Shaolin Qigong will be flexibility training, energy training, and martial training; Hatha Yoga will be strength training, flexibility training, and energy training; Meditation could be mind training and energy training, depending on the routine, or could just be mind training.  While Hunyuan Qigong could be mind training and energy training.  Taiji form could cover all categories, as could weapons training, push hands and other partner training.  The key for me is to cover all the above categories while maintaining a level of variety.

The end goal is comprehensive total well-being that covers all known aspects of existence, while enjoying the ride in the meantime.
