Training Shinai
Do martial artists see punches/other attacks more slowly than normal people?
This is a matter that has had me curious for quite a while now, but a google search revealed no answers to this question. As a result of their training and observation of high speed punches (or in the case or weapons-arts, weapons such as the bo or shinai), do martial artists perceive these attacks at a slower rate? Or is it simply that they’ve learned to automatically/quickly counter these upon seeing them?
It’s simply a case of the reaction time to the attacks being sharpened so that openings can be perceived easier. its a combination of reading the opponent and good footwork to get out of the way that makes it seem quicker.
