Mental training vs Physical training is something that I might've blogged about before, but I've been thinking about it a lot recently.
They're two sides of the same coin, but they can be very different from each other. Physical training can't happen at all times, such as the middle of an exam in school, but Mental training can. Mental training doesn't necessarily mean thinking about Kung Fu, but more thinking in a Kung Fu way. It's about the approach you take when thinking about something. Instead of just doing something, you could do something and ask yourself why am I doing this the way I am? Is there a better way? If there is, why am I not doing it? Looking for an improvement to something your doing is what I think Mental training is. Physical training is a bit more simple, it's forms, techniques, cardio, push-ups, sit-ups etc. They can be put together too, if you're practicing a technique and you find that it's working but it doesn't feel good, you can ask yourself why. Thinking about this topic can also be a way of Mental training, as it makes you dive deeper into your mind about what Kung Fu is to you.
