The Need for Speed, Part 1

Speed is often viewed as the ultimate trait of a fighter, and every fighter wants to be faster. In this episode, we are going to break down understanding speed. There is far more to it than meets the eye. We cover how to identify different aspects of speed, how to train effectively to build your speed, and how to approach facing an opponent who is faster than you are.
