This is great now I just need a clone who never sleeps, eats, and just exists to be a training partner
Ahahahah! I’ll buy one too
We do similar drills. The rule is you cannot move your left foot. We start out slow and then increase speed as skills develop. At the highest difficulty level we actually introduce feints.
I love the scenery where you train. It adds a touch of the old world and it makes working with your videos more of a short vacation in medieval Italy than a training session.
Thanks. Yeah, I am pretty proud of my valley, hehe!
Ah, I love that game - nicely presented my friend!
Thanks ;-)
Thank you! I was very curious what this term described.
Very good exercise, we do a very similar one ! ;-)
Important in my opinion is to often change the rear foot so to not do only the olympic style footwork we generally see in HEMA...
The footwork is what moves you around! We should not think too much about “Olympic” or other stylistic ideas, but rather doing what is needed to hit the opponent.
Anyway, it’s possible to do the drill with either leg forward (I think we did some LFF) or with other kinds of feet movements, while deciding before the exercise both the distance and the footwork form trained from the very beginning (as a LFF lunge is shorter than a RFF in terms of reach achieved, same for steps compared to lunges and to one another depending from starting leg forward)
@@FedericoMalagutti Yes and no. In a sportive context, I completely agree with you, but I think that in a martial thinking, it is very different. In sparring, I see a lot of things that I find to be lazy in the sense that it works in a sportive context (scoring a point) but are utterly dangerous in a real fight. One example is how modern olympic fencing does huuuge lunges, whereas Capoferro in the 1600s advices to lunge by advancing only by the length of one's foot, (probably because the danger of slipping is far too big and, contrary to a sparring match, would be deadly).
Similar things can be seen in longsword sparring, I might do a video about my thoughts on this topic one day...
@@Railriderchris definitely, but both capoferrro back then and the sport fencer right now are mainly thinking about necessities. The necessity to not slip is relative to the context. Probably even a fencer dueling today would be more careful on the grass a Capoferro playing some game back then would be more reckless.
@@FedericoMalagutti Sure thing, but I support the idea that one should train how he'll probably fight and fight like he'd trained. So, even if Capoferro would definitely be more adventurous in a friendly, safe sparring to test things and seek the limits, his basic training routine and teachings would certainly take into consideration the real thing.
And this is something that few do today, most are only interested into the sportive achievment.
If you took Capoferro in our modern time tournaments, he would probably fare rather poorly. He'd surely wait for the one certain hit while being protected, but then the time of the bout might be over with only a few exchanges and he'd not even get out of the pools...
But well, each his own interest, I guess,I'll certainly not criticise any longsword fencer who is more about the sport. And I certainly find that you, Federico, are doing a lot more than only this, and you are clearly my favourite HEMA-RUclipsr ;-)
Very good drill! Thank you!
We do it sometimes as a warm up, sometimes with little or no protection, this is good stuff. There is another thing you can do with this exercise: there are two strikes per turn; so fencer ,,a" makes two strikes, and then fencer ,,b" makes two and so on. I wanna also try one day to give one person power to feint, but this of course would make this more excercise and not a warm up game. Another thing I would like to add to this game one day, is to allow wrestling and halfsword - as the exchange becomes faster, more fierce, binds appear more often and distance closes, close combat starts. This would be of course different exercise, because then we train to switch to close combat if distance breaks, and don't train anymore to maitain proper distance as in basic version of this exercise, which is ofc more important as a foundation.
I really like this! Will have to get someone at my club to do this with me.
This drill would be Fantastic for saber too!
Definitely
A great exercise, we practice it on a regular basis. In our club we call it "Bambington". We practice it with sabers. Sometimes we changes the exercises rules and we performe two blows (cuts or trust) - two parades instead of one blow- one parade cicle.
I di it too! Also try it out in the version with limited blows, like only head and leg hits, it’s absolutely mind blowing ahah ;-)
Very good exercise, mainly to have a fun break while training techniques with young beginners.
Here's a quick tip to spice this game up a bit, change where you are: stand next to a wall, on sloped hill or in knee-deep water. It's not a good idea to start with this sort of thing, but it can be important, especially if you aren't strictly HEMA only, I have several re-enacment battles per year that don't have the fortune to happen on a level ground, and you don't want to tumble off of a castle hill. You want to send other people tumbling down the castle hill.
Nice ideia! Gonna work this out with in my trainings! THX
Good training ;-)
cool game.
Wow, thats an awesome tool, everyone can benefit from!! Thanks 😊
Good stuff, supporting.
Thanks for the ideas, I implemented them in our training last week. Worked well :)
Cool Bjorn! Nice to see you here ;-)
Cheers!
I can't wait to try this with my girlfriend.
It's a little like "Play at the wall" in smallsword (e.g. McBane)
Play at the wall develops more the ability of doing sequential parries, this one is more “right of waysh” with its turn based system. Because of this I consider the two complementary!
Is that the Spes trinity overlay?
Very nice video Frederico!
A small side question: Which mask and overlay is your student/training partner using in this video? The overlay looks like either the SPES unity pro or unity 800N but I am unsure. I am looking to get a new overlay for my allstar mask and really like the fitting on his mask.
I actually don’t know, I know for sure it’s a spes one but not which model! If I remember I’ll ask.
👍
