Train With the Best
“As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another” –
Proverbs 27:17
At Evolve Mixed Martial Arts we are firm believers that in
order to become the best you must train with the best. This applies not just to the practice of martial arts, but
to all aspects of life. It is for
this very reason that Evolve Mixed Martial Arts has scoured the globe to bring
in the very best of the best in all the major disciplines of mixed martial
arts. It is the reason why the Evolve Fight Team has proven itself as one
of the best in the world. If you
are not being challenged in training and learning from those around you every
day, then you are not improving.
No matter how great you may think you are, you must check your ego at
the door and open your mind to new things. There is no shame in getting your butt kicked in
training. That is what training is
for. Always try to pick the person
in the room that is better than you and learn from them. Remember, training is not about winning
or losing, but rather about trying new things and improving each and every
day.
As it turns out, Georges St. Pierre subscribes to the very
same philosophy of training.
Georges is a true MMA superstar and UFC World Champion, but every day in
training he gets his butt kicked. In the morning he will get out-boxed by a World Champion
boxer, and in the afternoon he will get submitted by a World Champion in
BJJ. This is what makes him one of
the very best mixed martial artists in the world. Check out the short video below in which Georges talks about
his philosophy of training. In his
own words, “I want to train with the best, because I want to become the best.”
