Simplicity & Performance

If not for perception, what critical actions and interactions are missed?

If not for speed, power, timing, precision how can threats be successfully engaged or evaded?

If not for stamina, how can the sustainment of skill be called upon several times?

A low-resolution familiarity of tactics and techniques alone aren't enough.

The required performance of skill is an essential element.

Train to perform.

The principle of simplicity is leveraged in order to maximize.

Progressively and tenaciously build and benchmark, but quickly.

If training for skill includes massive amounts of information at once, the tangibility of skill becomes smothering. Even simplistic movements can take time to embody and perform at sufficient levels.

Context and probability are critical and initially call for simplicity, which requires the focus of what’s needed, when needed.

It involves proven principles for a practical result.

Understanding patterns of action needs rigorous and progressive efforts to be converted into a skill.

In doing so, mental and physical conditioning occur.

Yet, simplicity isn’t easy and requires consistent effort. And it too requires programming to develop a called upon cognitive skill.

While simplicity is the opposite of complexity, progressive simplicity is related and conducive to sophistication and greater performance levels.

And as quoted by Archilochus, “We don't rise to the level of our expectations, we fall to the level of our training.”

Practice simplicity in your training and train to perform.

The performance of speed, power, timing and precision are vital and a standard in which it should be held.
