Women's judo: it's disturbing to watch these girls beat each other up – Telegraph Blogs Watching Gemma Gibbons gaining Britain’s first judo medal in 12 years, I found myself wondering: is women fighting each other violently a perfectly wholesome spectator sport?

Worked at increasing punching power by 'priming' the system, increasing the CNS activation. Using the ballet bars rather than just the wall as we did at Primal, we can activate both the pulling and throwing actions of the punch at the same time.

This makes it easier for beginners to get a hold on what muscle actions are needed AND transfer this to the pads. It worked!

Here's some training and MUCH more fighting from a feisty female stand up fighter - Erika Kamimura. Check out the unrelenting aggression, spectacular distance control and timing. Her opponents are playing catch up!

Working on training to improve your punches, working through and 'observing' the components of a punch to get it to work more effectively.

Did a lot of footwork drills last week. This is an attempt to get people moving and striking/kicking harmoniously.

That might sound stupid but the skip step is key to getting in and out while striking. Not easy to master but with effort you can get it.

Tonight we built on the 'skip' kick movement we've been working on lately. It was all about using the skip step to get into position so a technique could be thrown correctly.

Once you get the skip step sorted you add an entire new dimension to your game!

Last night we did a LOT of multiples drills, moving through various drills as follows
punching in flurries
