CrossFit...meet SaberFit

I've been thinking for a while now about getting a weight vest around 50lbs. This would be a great way to become faster and stronger. Kinda like knocking 2 birds out with 1 stone. Cuz after a while, if you got fast in the weight vest, you would be really fast without it. Just some food for thought

Weight vests are excellent!  We used them at my fencing club for conditioning, really gets your movement speed and agility to the next level.

On a similar topic - wrist weights.  Throw a couple of those on, pop in a heavy grade blade, and practice some cuts... you'll feel it!  MAV and I do this for training, against his heavy bag (except we use a rather heavy suburi bokken instead of a saber).

I like your style Nero! I will look into these as well

I used to use ankle weights in basketball and they had a similar effect as wrist weights.

Unofficial form VIII- Sokan:

Sokan was developed by combining tactics to allow evasion, mobility and kinetic movements like in Ataru. Sokan involves the use of swift strokes aimed at the body zones of the opponent. In addition to this they would add in tumbles, rolls, and jumps to help evade the attacks of the opponent. Sokan users would make extensive use of terrain in order to gain the advantage.

Being an unofficial Form, Sokan can be combines with an existing Form to create a stronger variant of combat.

Combine this with form III.... Whoooooo weeee!
