Wigfrid & Gunter
Hey Wigfrid, how do you train to stay sharp in battle—got a set routine or just wing it whenever a fight comes?
I wake before the sun, hit the training ground, and spend hours sharpening my blade, practicing footwork, and running sprints until my lungs burn. I also study old battles, watch the enemy’s moves, and spar with a trusted comrade until we both feel the rhythm. No wing‑it, just relentless practice and a fire in the belly that never fades.
Sounds solid, but how many reps, how many runs? Keep the numbers in mind. If you hit a plateau, you’re letting the rhythm slip—time to crank it up.
I do three sets of 20 sword swings, five rounds of 50 lunges, and a 10‑minute run at full speed, then another 10‑minute cooldown jog. If I hit a plateau, I double the reps or add a 15‑minute sprint. That keeps the rhythm tight.
Nice, those numbers give a clear target. Make sure you log them each session—reps, time, heart rate. If you’re hitting the same numbers week after week, that’s when you’re slipping. Keep the data, keep the edge.
Got it. I’ll log every rep, run, and heart rate so the edge never fades. If numbers stay flat, I’ll crank it up again. Keep the data, keep the blade sharp.
Great, just keep the logs tight and the rest tight too. If you’re pushing hard, a good night's sleep is part of the reps, not the afterthought. Stay sharp.
