Early this morning, as soon as we finished our morning exercise, Amanda gathered everyone to speak.

"From today onwards, we will be training in kickboxing. The first three days are sandbags for combat training, and then there is a two-person duel for actual combat training. ”

"Free fighting, also known as international free fighting, can be used with fist and leg techniques, it is not confined to any fixed routines, but advocates free play in actual combat according to the battle situation, flexible use of punches, feet, elbows, knees and falls and other three-dimensional techniques, both long and short, all-round display, in order to finally knock down or defeat the opponent for the purpose."

He paused, then continued.

"'Tell me the basics, and I'll come up with a unique technique that suits me.'" This is the best way to summarize the concept of kickboxing, but many people don't really understand the profound meaning of these words. They generally believe that kickboxing is a game of power. In order to defeat the opponent, any crooked trick can be used. In fact, the real free fighting is an eclectic mix of Chinese martial arts from the East, karate from the Ryukyus, judo and kendo from Japan, taekwondo from South Korea, Thai boxing from Thailand, and the essence of martial arts such as boxing and wrestling in the West. ”

"Since ancient times, as the guardians of the people of the country, soldiers have often had the strongest combat effectiveness. Of course, in today's high-tech warfare, the strength of one person cannot control the entire war. However, judging the strength of an army is not only based on its advanced technology and weapons, but also on the overall quality of the soldiers in the army that is the key to determining the combat effectiveness of the army. ”

"As we all know, the strength of the military is not limited to the application of advanced weapons. A good soldier cannot have all the skills to use weapons. Due to the variety of types of warfare, even military personnel may not always have weapons around them, but they can often defeat and even kill their enemies very easily, even with their bare hands. In addition to relying on daily physical training, they also have mastered a fighting technique that has evolved from war for thousands of years - military kickboxing. ”

Compared with other martial arts that advocate "self-cultivation and cultivation of sentiment", the army's free fighting technique emphasizes the simplest subduing and killing of the enemy. And due to the special identity of the user, this kind of fighting technique is fundamentally different from pure ring competition - each of his moves and styles contains the powerful power of one-hit defeat. ”

Of course, this dangerous martial arts technique has not been popularized around the world like other martial arts, mainly because the true value of this martial arts depends on the environment in which it is used - in an ordinary ring arena, the fights that martial artists have to fight are all under the protection of the rules of the competition, and they are completely safe to fight under the rules. However, the environment used in the martial arts is by no means as safe as in the ring, and its users are often in the midst of a brutal battlefield, where the soldiers have only one thing to do when they are engaged in close combat - to kill the enemy in order to protect themselves. It may sound a bit too brutal, but it was true that military fighting evolved in such an environment, and as such, it doesn't have the beauty and charm of other martial arts, but it's definitely an extremely dangerous fighting technique. ”

"Next, I will systematically explain the basic boxing techniques of kickboxing. Some students, especially those who are interested in this, may already know something, but I still hope that you can start from the basics again, practice step by step, abandon some unobtrusive operation modes, and practice hard kung fu to defend against the enemy and capture the enemy. ”

I listened carefully to what Amanda had to say, word by word, and he was so good that I understood the mystery of kickboxing, and made it even more clear that it was extremely important in combat, and my self-confidence was born.

In fact, I didn't play with the Herties during my recent late break, because I knew that the gap between me and them was too big, as if there was an insurmountable gap between us, so I had to train hard to stay behind.

Although there were no kickboxing classes in the weekday training camp, I already knew from Amanda's words that kickboxing would be the focus of our next training camp, and in order to be able to keep up with the pace of the big army in such an important training, I had to train early, and Fanny felt the same way, so we both took advantage of the free time after dinner to go to a secluded training room on the side for early combat practice. Bennet is our little "teacher", he fell in love with kickboxing at a very young age, and his systematic training from childhood to adulthood made him very proficient in the sport. And he also loves to lecture, and he is especially good at teaching, he borrowed a copy of "Basic Training Essentials of Free Fighting" from the library, and taught us according to the theory in the book combined with his own understanding and practice.

I have never forgotten what Amanda said to me at the party before, so I am stupid to fly first, seize all the independent time, study hard, and hope that I can make a breakthrough. Fanny, on the other hand, has another meaning beyond her training.

I knew what she was thinking, it had to be our little "teacher" Bennet, and I could tell with certainty just by looking at her eyes.

When we were alone, I asked her, "What do you think of Bennet?" ”

She didn't hide it at all, but said generously: "He is handsome, tall and mighty, but he is very kind, down-to-earth, generous, and a trustworthy person!" ”

She's right, Bennet can really be trusted, he's the kind of big boy who sees mountains and water and will never do tricks behind his back.

Fanny has reached the age of the first love, she always listens quietly to Bennet's lectures with a smile on her face, and every time she hands a bottle of water or drink during the lecture, Bennet also happily accepts it, which is very useful. This hazy relationship between them is really unbearable, so I sometimes want to stay away so that they can be alone together, but they don't think so, but they treat me as a good partner for life and training together, and always don't forget to pull me to exercise together.

After the theoretical teaching was successfully completed, Amanda led the team out of the sports field, climbed to the third floor, and crossed a narrow narrow road, and finally entered a large combat training ground. The training ground is truly unique, full of heavy sandbags. I have the impression that the sandbags are supposed to be hanging in the air, but here the sandbags are firmly stacked on the ground, like large tumblers taller than a person. It seems that the current process has been greatly improved and improved, and even if someone pushes this big sandbag hard, it will not easily fall, but will sway and hover on the spot. In the face of such a huge sandbag, I felt like a small hemp stick.

Amanda continued to explain the essentials of fighting in the open field of training, and he not only taught many martial arts techniques, but also demonstrated and instructed us in each of our moves. Personally, I think it's very beneficial, but there are people in the team who yawn.

After that, we started training with sandbags. Before I could act, the big boys were already rushing to the sandbags, and they were waving their fists like fish in water, like nectar in a long drought, hitting the silent sandbags to the fullest, venting their excess energy that had nowhere to vent.

I looked at them, and my heart began to go up and down, I really didn't expect these little boys to have such a powerful force!

At this time, Amanda was inspecting everyone's drills, he was coming to my side from far and near, I hurriedly withdrew my eyes, concentrated, waved my fist, and concentrated on dealing with the big sandbag in front of me. But my heart was so nervous that I broke out in a cold sweat. The glance at the companions around me had hit me to the bottom, and I guessed that Amanda must have been dismissive of my drills.

After a while, Amanda came to my side. He didn't say a word, just stared at me, which made me sweat more and more, and the movement of the blow became a little stiff. I felt that my skills were still very different from others, so I was ashamed of myself, and I really wanted to run away and hide in a place where no one could find me. But I didn't expect him to walk away with a mocking face, but said to me with a smile: "Yes, the movements are very accurate, the reflexes and flexibility are also okay, you have to keep going." The downside is that your impact is not enough, and you need to gradually increase your explosiveness. ”

I was pleasantly surprised by his words, it turned out that my martial arts ability was not as bad as I imagined, my self-confidence returned, and I excitedly confessed, "I will definitely work harder!" He smiled and walked on to the next member, and I, confident and energetic, redoubled my fists and feet at the punching and punching bags that were even bigger than me.
