It is during this time of year when we reflect upon what we are thankful for. For me, I am thankful for my wonderful family, boyfriend, friends, good health, and my martial arts training. I am sure that many of you feel the same way and have many things to be thankful for. I guess the point I am trying to make is that if you are thankful for someone then let them know. If you are thankful for your martial arts training then make sure you take it seriously and don't waste your time when you are in your dojo or training hall. If you want to take your training to the next level then check out some of the previous blog posts. There are lots of little tips and tidbits that any martial artist can apply to his or her training.

Another topic I want to discuss is staying in shape and keeping up with your martial arts training during the holiday season. When the holidays hit it is easy to over eat and slack off, but as serious martial artists you need to be strong and push past the temptations. You can still have fun and enjoy the holidays, but don't over eat and don't skip out on your training.

Another great thing to do is to make time to train on your own or with a partner. You can add in some conditioning drills, do some sparring, or work on your technique. If you don't have a training partner and want to have a solid workout then I would go with the Herman Digital Interactive Training Partner. We have one of these training aids at our dojo. This digital trainer can attach to a wide variety of bags or targets, and measures number of strikes, strike impact, calculates maximum power, and more.

So as you enjoy the upcoming holiday season make sure to give thanks for the things that are important in your life and to keep up the hard work as 2009 comes to a close.
