@@project_ronin4789 A powerful chest would seem to me to be a good martial arts or combat asset for strikes & impact. Plus the many other strength that come with benching. But with all suppliment training it cannot be over done. So I like the 4 but I would add one more and it the bench press.
Thank you Paul! Great short video. I practice for 30 years now and my body gets very sensible to injury, so I started to go to the gym at least 2 times a week. This kind of training is very important as you grow older.
Very useful, thank you for taking the time to produce and upload. Late to Iai so am looking at how to progress and see this as an essential part of my training.
Hey Paul, great video as always! As someone who is looking to get back into kendo after several years, this information is incredibly relevant and timely. Hope to see more!
Brilliant piece of exercise advice and recommendation for kendo and iaido which I have included in my regime at the gym. Please continue with this good work. Thank you very much indeed.
Using weights that allow you to do "more than six reps" doesn't mean you're no longer training for strength, but for endurance. You can use weights that allow you to do up to 12 reps or so and still be training for muscular growth. Endurance training comes in closer to 16 reps and above. 12 reps is actually maximal for hypertrophy, assuming it takes you around 4 seconds per rep. That's because "time under tension" is important to muscular growth, and 48 seconds is the optimal time under tension. It's true that hypertrophy and strength aren't synonymous, but hypertrophy involves strength gains. (Your muscles don't get bigger without also getting stronger.) My point is that you don't have to work with such heavy weights that you can only do six reps. I'd go so far as to say that inexperienced lifters SHOULDN'T use such heavy weights that they can only do six reps. Aside from that, I agree with you completely. As an older male I've seen far too many martial artists who simply aren't fit. That's not good for your journey, or for your health, and all the leg-work in Iaido can easily lead to injury if you're overweight and have weak muscles. Thanks for the video!
Yup. Lunges are great. There are even suburi versions with lunges. People with knee problems can try step-back lunges, which tend to be a bit easier on the knees.
Oyama and Them always used weights and calisthenics for strength and conditioning training and so did Bruce Lee 🤠 you must be fit to fight or you'll be fit for the ER ,ICU or the Graveyard. So do you Push Ups ,Set Ups, Dips, Squats and things and live because you just never know 😎
There's a robust body of research indicating that static stretching BEFORE an explosive activity doesn't improve performance, and in fact appears to hinder performance. And no compelling evidence that static stretching reduces the risk of injury. Cited some studies in the video.
That's a bit difficult to answer in text. But generally speaking, your shoulders should be relaxed. Elbows should be relatively straight, but not hyperextended.
The definition of strength and muscular endurance training in this video is incorrect going by the industry gold standard guidelines set out by the ACSM (American College of Sports Medicine)
1. Squat
2. Deadlift
3. Pull up
4. Dip or push up

He forget the Bench Press but the Dead Lift and Squat are called the Big Three for Strength & Power 🤠👊
@@powerplay4real174 most combative athletes dont use bench as the chest isnt a mjaor muscle for combat

Thanks for the video!
Great video, excellent instruction and information, thank you for sharing your knowledge
Thank you for your scientific paper reviews.
You provide very good information. Thanks.
thank you for this video, I was searching it !
Good information
Thanks for your inclusion of women in this!
Thank you for the video. Very helpful and informative for a beginner like myself.
I reckon an inclusion of lunge movement would be beneficial as well.
Yup. Lunges are great. There are even suburi versions with lunges. People with knee problems can try step-back lunges, which tend to be a bit easier on the knees.
bloody brilliant
I just noticed you are from NYC! I am living in NYC too! Would love to train in Kendo and Iaido too! I am 2nd dan koryu iaido.
Cool. What koryu do you practice?
@@PaulHBShin Koryu tameshigiri iaido Yusinryu in Osaka. It is not available outside of Japan.

Thank you for this video. Could you elaborate on your comment, "Don't do static stretching?"
There's a robust body of research indicating that static stretching BEFORE an explosive activity doesn't improve performance, and in fact appears to hinder performance. And no compelling evidence that static stretching reduces the risk of injury. Cited some studies in the video.
@@PaulHBShinThanks for your quick response!
To sum it up: If you wanna be good at LIFE then squat heavy lol
Indeed. :)
Plastering and labouring 5 - 6 days a week for a job
Should I use my shoulders at all when I cut please? And what is the best position for elbows when cutting please? Thanks :-)
That's a bit difficult to answer in text. But generally speaking, your shoulders should be relaxed. Elbows should be relatively straight, but not hyperextended.
@@PaulHBShin Thanks a million :-) :-)
