Myers Square for training.

So at my club we have noticed a lot of people tend to make one strike step back then make another or a cover.

To work towards more commitment we have started using Myers Square in our training, having each fencer cut through it against an actual opponent whos only job is to cover themselves from each cut.

We have also started using known cut sets, I.E fendente, reverso sotani mezzani reverso fendente. And drilling that over and over for 5 minutes. (I stole the idea from kickboxing training)

From this we have noticed the students get a lot more worn out, so its good exercise and out sparring sessions have really improved in the sense that the fighters will through combinations rather than a single cut.
