Combat Fitness at Max Muscle

Today was the hardest workout of my life, brought to me by Mike Lee Kanarek. He is the founder of the reality self defense system called Haganah and the other subdivisions. One of them is called F.I.G.H.T. (fierce Israeli guerrilla hand-to-hand tactics) which is hand-to-hand combat, gun threats and disarms, how to deal with a knife attack or threat, and also how to survive a fight when it hits the ground. Others include how to fight with knifes and tactical firearm shooting. While I've only dipped in the shallow end of the FIGHT system, one thing that MLK offers is a workout called Combat Fitness.

Combat Fitness he says is the "ammo" to your arsenal of fighting. Whatever your style of martial arts is, you need to have the stamina and endurance to last in a fight and Combat Fitness is the answer. The goal of the workout is to reach that threshold of endurance right before you actually pass out or faint. Well, I made it there. It was during the last 5 minutes of the workout that I really had to push and make it through. It was extremely challenging and I loved it.

You might be seeing Combat Fitness at ATA Elkton soon but for now, come and try our ATAfit class. I'd like to thank Ms. Holubyckyj for coming with me and lasting the whole workout too! She got to "Roar with the Lions!!"
