Between the "partner drill" and the "sparring/wrestling", there should be another training and that's the "special technique testing".
For example, within 1 minute, if you can put your hand on your opponent's neck, you win that round. Otherwise, you lose that round. Test this for 15 rounds and record the result. There can be 3 levels of testing here.
1. one directional testing - Your opponent can only play defense.
2. restricted bi-directional testing - your opponent can only do what you try to do on him.
3. free bi-directional testing - your opponent can do anything.
So even with simple testing like this, it can have 3 levels of excitement.
Other similar testing that I like to use by this method are:
Within 1 minute, If I can
1. hit my opponent's head, I win. Otherwise, I lose.
2. get my opponent a head lock, I win. Otherwise, I lose.
3. get my opponent's leading leg, I win. Otherwise, I lose.
- ...
Here is an example for test 1. The advantage of this method is it will force you to train one particular technique.
What's your opinion on this?
