Let’s talk about training.

Due to the pandemic many gyms are closed. How do you practice your martial art/contact sport while at home? Do you train with a partner? Also what are your options, if you need to be isolated completely alone. If you are not actually training in the art/sport, then what conditioning exercises will you do that develop you as a martial artist?

I know the training varies, it depends what martial art you are practicing, but I am interested in all the different experiences. For example, training in striking arts is quite easily imaginable, but what about grappling? Also looking for new interesting training ideas.

There are a bunch of soli drills you can do.

On another thread I was just discussing the benefits of learning breakdancing for grappling.

You can train with your dummy.

Welcome to the forum mate :)

Had no partner to train with, but man I explored sooo much. Did more online training than I could recollect and worked on a lot of things on my own (basics+technique, kata, bagwork, footwork drills, stances, conditioning, meditation, reading)

Made this thread just for this purpose, for others to share and get ideas:
The inspiration thread: The Self-Isolation training of Sosai Mas Oyama

Everything is pretty open now where I am so I can train with others.
