Improving Mental and Physical Ability Through Aggressiveness Exercises

Aggressiveness exercises are a great way to improve our mental and physical abilities. In our next issues we will cover a few of them.

Drill:

For this exercise we need two bars which are hanged next to each other. Usually you can find one in a playground, in the form of a ladder hung vertically above the ground. You and your partner hang yourself on the ladder, facing each other. Your objective is to make the other fall using only your legs - pushing, pulling, squeezing… are all allowed.

Tips:

1. It is very important we maintain a play mentality, and avoid becoming overly aggressive in our touch so that the exercise doesn't turn into a fight.

2.In general, the amount of sets, their duration and the length of time of each set, should be decided upon according to our abilities and endurance level both mentally and physically.

3. It is important that we look for the aggressiveness inside the exercise rather than the techniques which can be applied. We shouldn't look to achieve our goal through joint-locks, strikes, etc.

4. When we finish the exercise it is very important to stretch our whole body.
