damndaniel Posted February 2, 2020 Report Share Posted February 2, 2020 Do fighters skills diminish over time if they are not trained, like kicks and punches? What about majors like Boxing overall? Physicals like cardio and strength? Does fighters ability to learn skills diminish? If you have an 18yo what should you have him learn first? I have one 18yo project fighter, and focusing on physicals and sparring. Should I adjust that? have him learn more specific skills? thanks for the input Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe most people train a little bit of everything among the main secondaries, primaries and physicals. Some people wait a bit longer to start having projects sparring. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SavageMMa Posted February 3, 2020 Report Share Posted February 3, 2020 I spar with my project fighters and they often get 1.5-3 points to primary per sparring session, I think it's foolish to wait to spar. Also, I wait to train up strength too crazy.. it's literally the easiest physical to get up and not worth training on a young fighter lmao Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
