In combat sports, there is not universal ‘’best style’’ and every fighter has his or her own strengths and advantages. There is a counterstrategy for every advantage that you or your opponent may possess, and this is what makes it such a great sport.
In this video, we will go through the styles in terms of physical capacity. Generally, there are three different categories of athletes:
1. The somewhat slow and sloppy fighter, but with a gas-tank for days
2. The twitchy, snappy and explosive fighter that is prone to fatigue
3. The in-between fighter with a good balance of both attributes
Athletic attributes such as strength, power and endurance are dependent on many factors. To name a few:
• Aerobic capacity; such as oxygen transportation, utilization of oxygen, and lactate threshold.
• Anaerobic capacity; such as phosphocreatine stores, glycolytic capacity, and buffering capacity.
• Neuromuscular factors; such as motor unit recruitment, rate-coding, motor control, and utilization of elastic energy.
• Psychological factors; such as courage, confidence, motivation, and resilience.
• Anatomy; bodily proportions, leverage…
Trying to make sense out of all of these and their relative contribution is next to impossible.
There is however one very detrimental (although not a sole) factor that determines your type of athleticism to a very significant extent, namely your muscle fiber type distribution, which will be the topic of this video.
