If you want to get faster in the martial arts, I've got three quick tips for you... and one reality check.
First tip: Don’t wind up. Your fist only needs to go from Point A to Point B, so don’t take a detour to Point C. That might actually triple the distance your fist is traveling! Even if you only wind up a little, you’re still adding time to your technique.
Second tip: Stay loose. If you get angry and tighten up, your muscles will work against you. To be fast, stay cool.
Third tip: Practice. Train your body to only use the muscles you need. Make it a goal to be as efficient as possible.
REALITY CHECK! You can't just keep getting faster and faster. At some point, you're going to hit your limit. But consider this... even if you can't increase your speed objectively, you can still increase your speed subjectively.
If you want to make your best move seem faster, set it up moving slower. Like a snake, hypnotize your opponent into thinking you’re only going to move at a low speed, then explode. That’s what the pros are doing when they talk about setting the pace of a fight or breaking rhythms.
That means when it comes to speed, you shouldn’t just focus on how fast you can move, you should practice setting up your moves so the other guy doesn’t see them coming. Become a master of manipulating time.
So, instead of always practicing at full speed, mix it up. Set a rhythm, then break it. Remember--no matter how fast you can move, if you keep moving at just one speed, you'll become predictable... and that means beatable!
Think of it this way-your goal isn’t to be as fast as you can be, it’s just to be fast enough to get what you want. Hypnotize your opponent and you should have all the speed you need.

That's perfect. Thank you!

@@AndoMierzwa Interesting...
@@AndoMierzwa It's true that it is impossible to focus on speed at an old age i.e we must focus on being tricky,cleverness and time manipulating to get the job done.....i get it...cause now i'm 19 age boy.....sir...
@@chobingnami7379 Ha! Just wait... it gets more challenging! :)
I wish I had a trainer like this!
Honored. Thank you, sir!
Me too
Same, I have a good coach but all they do is teach techniques which are helpful but when we do sparring we just know the techniques not how to trick the opponent. Especially when we vs a taller person it’s already expected the taller one is better which is sad. I’m still young so my parents won’t switch, videos like this are perfect!
"Hey man I don't want to fight then, boom, you pop that fool in the face. Lmao!
It's an oldie, but a goodie! :)
I call that the Joseph Donnelly lol "I have no wish to fight you" *crack*
"Old age and treachery will always beat youth and exuberance." LOL
Great video!
That is exactly right! Ha! :-)
💯
My summary
1.Don't wind up
2.Stay loose
3.Practice
Hypnotise:Move slower before fast
Time Manipulation:Set up your timing so your opponent confused
Thank you master🎆
Nice summary! Thank you for watching! 🙏🏻
For all the old guys out there, remember this, precision beats power and timing beats speed
AMEN!

@@DOOMLORDHOKAGE oww thanks. :)
I'm not even a old guy, but this is true on so many levels. Against seasoned fighters sometimes the only way to win is chess like mind games and feints.
my best advice is rhythm: try to perform the moves slowly. Then train the same moves with counting or a metronom. When you get the hang of it start increasing the speed- it works really well
A metronome or playing music is a great idea! Thanks!
Wait...your telling me i can be goku
😱
Yup. Lets go area 51!
Anime_Edits/Amv Yeet Thats correct my brotha
Anime_edits
No it makes you looks like saitama
Yup gogu
I really like the line from Kung Fu Hustle, " In the world of kung fu, speed determines the winner!"
I'm a student of the Joe Lewis Fighting System, and broken rhythm is one of the techniques it suggests. However, for me, nothing gets my fist into my opponent faster than using the technique of independent motion, because there are two factors, not just distance, but also the reaction time of the opponent to see the strike.
True enough! Economical movement makes it hard to see you coming!
True stuff, at 51 I have noticed my speed and power are still pretty good, but reaction time is slipping. I think my mind is more focused on when that Matlock marathon is starting. But the element of surprise and tactics are now in my favor. The whippersnappers do NOT expect a combo nut shot/pimp slap to come from an old timer with a limp in mid sentence. Plus I have that grocery bag full of cans of Ensure to finish them off if need be.
thats funny pea cans to the knees.
Wow! Three laughs in one comment! Thank you! :)
MrByaeger lmao
MrByaeger
This explains why these old 8th dan Kendo masters can defeat their faster/fitter and much younger opponents.
Their bodies may be slow but not their minds.
so the secret to getting 10th dan is watching matlock?
wow complete video. head to toe everything is there nothing to worry about. love you sir keep making videos.
+WAW wat'saboutworld You are very kind. I'll keep making them if you keep watching them! Thank you!
Always brilliant advice, great to look back at your old videos for stuff I have forgotten.
Thank you for the kind words, sir! 🙏🏻
man, u deserve much much more support than u get
u have this RARE thing in utube, u only need 5 min to say things clerarly
others would have made it a 15 min video! man, u are A SUPERHUMAN,
much love and respect from saudi arabia fan -
Greetings form the USA, sir! Thank you for the good vibes!
So true. To the point. I am finding so .any videos are mainly filled up with fillers, meaning wordy time wasters that just seem to never get to the point or hardly tough on the point of the video. This one was clear and precise, to the point.
fair point now that you mention it....his videos are straight to the point I do admire that. I don't have to fast forward to the 2 minute mark before the content of the video actually starts because of either rambling or a 2 minute song intro or both.
Because he writes a script and cuts the video
But TH-cam is banned in Saudi Arabia?
🤔🤔
I dropped a like as soon as the video started because I gotta support ole Ando! I love your channel man.
You are awesome! Thank you, Manny! Blessings!
Thank you for your kindness! :)
Ando Mierzwa And thank you for the great tips!
perfect point, when sparring with my mates, I usually kick low and slow first and when I see the opportunity I explode a round house kick, worked every time. Gooooooood video.
Awesome! It's a trick that works over and over again! :-)
This is crazy, I was literally thinking today about when you would put out your next video and I was just teaching the same thing about rhythm a few days ago. I always say rhythm is the only thing that works when broken.
Ha! Synchronicity. Glad we're on the same track, sir!
Yeah your so right of tip 3 and the next of it,and the other one too,your the greatest teacher
Thank you for the kind words! 🙏🏻
Gr8 advice. Thanks Ando
My pleasure! Thank you for watching!
Thanks for keeping it real

Just found your channel 2 days ago. I'm starting in martial arts at 32 and since day one I understood speed wasn't on my side. This video gave me a great tool to fight those teenagers at the dojo. Thanks master
Awesome, Ric! Go get 'em! :)
Ando after taking your advise i had a fantastic sparring session this evening scored plenty of points!! I'm getting much better thanks again 😊

Nice tips Sensei. I'm now with 47 and the weight of ages is coming to get me. With this timing manipulation, things can be better for sure. Thank you for the class. Peace and health for you and all students.
I'm 47, too, so I understand! Peace and health to you, too, sir!
Moving slow to move fast....deception is the key ;)
Yes, sir... more brain, less muscle!
You never stop learning an I just learnt heaps, Wayne from Australia down under 🇦🇺

You definitely give the best advice on youtube
I’m honored! Thank you.
Awesome video 👍
My pleasure, sir!🙏🏻
So true. Thank you for the reality check.
Sad, but true! Thanks for saying hi, sir!
Without addressing conditioning. Nicely done. The rhythm concept is bang on.
I can only condition so much. Then it's up to the brain, right? Thanks for watching!
Best pragmatic advice ever. Especially an old ass like me! Train smarter not harder or actually train harder and smarter. Always a pleasure watching your videos!
I appreciate your support! Happy training from another old ass! :)
Good video keep up the good work
Much appreciated! Thank you!
Well taught thank you
My pleasure, sir! Thanks!
Setting the pace... this was a great peace of advice!!!
Thank you very much!
great advice.
We work with different rhythms, natural, broken, shattered and simultaneous rhythm. But this clip gives me a better understanding of it all , so THANK YOU sensei Ando ✌💪👊
Awesome. Sounds like you've got a good group. Thanks for the comment! Happy training!
Awesome video...... Need more
Working on it! Thanks!
Great advice as usual!
Thank you very much, Kevin!
I came here from a bullshido video expecting more bullswill but damn man. I was honestly amazed at the clarity and reality of your explanation. Thanks for the vid. I will subscribe
That is a great compliment. Thank you for the comment!
Don't make me cry! :) Thank you, my friend!
thanks to your information sensei
Thank you for watching!
Changing the rhythm wasn't something I ever thought of. I'm fast but then people can get used to it. Mixing up the rhythm is soo good and I love playing mind games in my spars.
Thank you for the wise tip!
Yes! Mind games! All day! :-)
Thanks ando makes perfect sense will try this technique out when Im sparring.
Awesome. Let me know how it goes!
Thankyou for sharing
Thank you for watching!
Keep the videos up. I have dedicated my hole life to karate since I was 7 and progress in fights by being lose.
Awesome. Stay loose!

Thanks for letting me know, Maria! 🙏🏻
Great advice being in my 50s and sparring younger people you need to be able set the pace.
Thank you so much that really helped me
Happy to hear that! Thank you!
All awesome advice that most people are never taught in their art. I think the last one will be the hardest for them to figure out how to do on their own without a good teacher there to help give them the experience. There are also many other ways to address speed and the perception of speed.
Thank you for the comment, sir!
Good sir big fan of you
That’s good to hear! Thank you!
Ty sensei God bless

Thank you, Mike!
Good fighting technic advise to the old age deseasing fighters. Thanks 👍👍👍
Ha! Exactly! 😄
Sensi Ando pure wisdom, I've really learnt a lot from your videos, you have a beautiful mind and practical ways. My full support Sensi Ando, I would love to talk with you about psychophysics and psychophisiology MMA, Tendons and Neurology and other related subjects
Thank you for the kind words, sir! But not sure I can keep up with your intellect! :)
@@AndoMierzwa it's more of a practical philosophy I won't bore you with statistics and theoretical science hahaha, as a result I came up with a dance and a technique a lil close to YiQuan techniques that I can do myself. pls feel free to check some of my practice on Instagram " Hunter9nine " .
I only practice 2 hours per week, but it's a downloading process not a repetitive one.
in summery I understand how the human body and psyche work as a machine, so instead of using any usual repetitive practice to train flexibility strength, reflex and balance etc I found more intelligent ways to access the body intelligence and structure (phi). so then I realized that the body knows how to do kung fu by it's own,
if we have the right programs just like the Matrix movie, then the body can do it by it's own. it's a bout reaching a state when you are consciously unconscious.
Love time manipulation, been experimenting a lot with that recently.
You're a smart man!
Love your explanation from India 😊
Thank you very much! Love from the USA! 🙏🏻
You're good man
Thank you! 🙏🏻
This was a good one.could you do one about blocking
Excellent tips sensei. I follow some of your basic rules in Krav maga and find that I can easily outwit my sparring partner all the time.
Basics are the basics for a reason! They work! Happy training!
Thanks a lot ..! :)
Amazing as always. The manipulation of time and cadence was in bruce Lees Tao of Jeet Kune Do. Also ive seen the same concept played out in Ufc champ Max holloway's striking style
It really does make a difference. Thanks for pointing out some examples!
Ill try nxt time😁👍🏻
Cool!
Good job...
Thank you kindly!
Thanks
Thank you for watching!
