To everybody,
Look guys....learning how to fight, even in very intense high-stakes situations, doesn't take the absurd number of hours a day some of you guys are putting in. If you're putting in more than 1 to 2 hours a day in training, you're either a professional fighter or you're completely wasting your time. Real combat doesn't require hours and hours a day of training. As a completely subjective and anecdotal test, I'm willing to bet that all or nearly all of the guys who put in the most number of hours of daily training (say, 4 or more) have never experienced real combat and are simply putting in that kind of time because they have been told by fellow practitioners of their style that such is necessary if one is to develop any real degree of skill.
