Picture
You are as fit as you are competent in each of these ten skills. A regimen develops fitness to the extent that it improves each of these ten skills. Importantly, improvements in endurance, stamina, strength, and flexibility come through training. Improvements in coordination, agility, balance, and accuracy come through practice. Power and speed are adaptations of both training and practice.

The Focused Person
 -Always maintains proper technique throughout training
-Does not waste much time on small muscles (they will grow as the result of functional exercise that hits the big muscles)
-Understands that it is normal to feel pain (mentally or physically) during a workout
-Knows that quitting is NOT an option! If the person gives up here, then he has given up in battle and this is unacceptable
