Martial arts training timetable?

Question

I want to have a martial arts training timetable to become excellent fighting. I choose the style is shaolin wushu.I am doing bodybuilding in mon,wed.fri

How much time I have to train? how many days?

What all I have to incorporate in training. (punches with punching bag or not?, kicks etc?)

Please provide a suitable time table.

Answer 1

If you're doing body building on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, then do martial arts training on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.

Follow your instructor's advice on how long to train. I'd suggest between 1 and 2 hours a day. More if you can do it.

Regarding what to incorporate in training, follow your instructor's advice. Also review with him/her your bodybuilding routine and ask whether some of that should be modified. For instance, you might want to shift to exercises that work other parts of your body, or that emphasize flexibility. I don't know; that's something to ask your instructor.

Hope that helps.

Answer 2

First- Wushu is a generic name for all Chinese martial arts- like "Kung Fu"- so saying you're studying "Shaolin Wushu" doesn't tell us much.

Second- you will need to study regularly for 3-5 years with good instruction in order to become an OK fighter.  To become "excellent" figure at least 10 years of diligent study.

I would figure that you will have something like 2-3 hours per week of class time.  As when you are studying for school, you should use 2-3 hours of study for each hour of class time per week.  That would be something like 4-9 hours of study per week.

For basics, such as punching and kicking, I would encourage you to incorporate them in your bodybuilding- perhaps as a warm-up.  Most of your study time should actually be taken up with studying forms, stances, grappling, strikes.

To truly know what you will need for training, you first need to know what you will need to train.  Most of your training will be done without any equipment- which is the purpose of the forms or katas.

Answer 3

Rule of thumb:  10 years for a 1st degree black belt in Judo; 5 years for Okinawan or Japanese Karate; 6 years for Kung fu.

This is training at least four days a week; plus a lot of camps, seminars, tournaments, and self practice.

Answer 4

A lifetime, maybe more

Answer 5

Training takes about 6 weeks or more depending on how much you learned or experienced.

It's hard to provide a Timetable but practice every day for 30 minutes to 1 hour and then you'll see that you've progressed. Most instructors for Martial Arts say 6 weeks is the maximum time for training. Have fun!

Answer 6

It will take a lifetime and your isntructor will tell you what you need to know.

Karate king and queen you definetly do not need to be answering Martial arts questions. 6 weeks LMAO.
