Functional Training

In this episode of MAD Storm, we continue the process of turning mistakes into functional training. Instead of obsessing over what an opponent does well, we turn the camera back on ourselves. Don't just say, “He has a great leg kick.” Ask, “How often am I getting leg kicked?” Don't just admire someone's jab. Measure how often you're getting hit by it and determine why.

This is where film study, training, and measurement come together. Film identifies the mistake. Training introduces the correction. New film shows whether the behavior actually changed.
