EXPERT INSIGHT | SABUM Silvia Farigu
What belief about performance or success did you have to unlearn to reach the highest level? And once you did, how did your performance or success change?
SABUM SILVIA FARIGU:
Quality over quantity in every area: training, competition, and teaching.
Some examples: In patterns, rather than executing a kick higher than necessary, (which is also a mistake), it's better to focus on executing the technique correctly. In sparring, it's not necessary to perform many different techniques in a single match, but rather to know how to choose the right ones for that situation and achieve the objective with minimal risk. It's not necessary to show 10 to get one point. Training must also be carefully planned. High training volumes for prolonged periods are not synonymous with quality, and it's necessary to respect recovery times to perform at your best.
Experience, study, and even daily commitments have pushed me to organize myself even better and benefit from the positive effects of a program focused on quality rather than quantity.
