You must be prepared to defend yourself at any time. Building up strength, endurance, and technical ability improves capacity for defense. Intense preparation from karate exercise helps maintain a degree of readiness to defend yourself or your family by preparing the delivery system and building up the strength of your arsenal.
Karate training helps the body create a strong delivery system by maintaining fitness.
Fitness can be divided into two parts. First is muscular fitness. The body becomes strong through the rigor of karate training to withstand harsh physical punishment without becoming weary. The second part is energy fitness. Energy fitness is the ability of the body to supply the muscles with the right fuel at the right time to perform efficiently at a high level.
