I don't know how to really explain it better, but I'll give an example:
My other real hobby is music: I play the guitar and piano. Both have made my hands much stronger and much more precise (at least, I believe they have. I've been training and working out in the meantime, so there's really no definitive proof that this is a correlation) which has helped with striking as well as manipulations. For me, like I've said many times, it's about balance creative and destructive influences in my life, and otherwise helps keep me sane.
So what do you do? Do you feel it's had any effect on your martial arts skills?
