There are people that are pretty good in perfect conditions. In a 68 degree gym, in their uniform or yoga pants they can look just like " insert whatever great fighter".What about training in the cold? You ever tried techniques that require dexterity in the cold? You ever try to execute wrist locks when your fingers are numb from the cold?
These are all things I am experimenting with. My motivation comes from Kru Jeff Burger and a Systema teacher in RI. Sasha Komocar. These gentlemen helped me to get motivated to grab my kettlebell and go out in the snow and train with no shirt.
The mental focus once you get moving helps to accomplish the tasks but it is certainly a different monster to fight, grapple, lift weights or shoot in wet and or cold weather.
Remember that real self defense involves street fighting in bad weather and good.
How do you train for realistic weather conditions?
