I was just wondering what art everybody does and how long he/she practice per day. And how many days a week.  |

Hello
I practise Kyokushin 2-3 times a week. The classes are suppossed to be an hour long but most people stick around for a couple more rounds in the ring and arrive half an hour early to warm up. So usually I'm there for about two hours. Also I take two week breaks every three months to give me time to heal and relax.

I personally run classes 4 days a week for 1.5-2hrs each....
Train personally 1 hr per day - 6 days per week...
Weight train 3 days a week...
Run 5 days a week...
Slowed down a bit in my old age...when I was fighting on an ongoing basis...it was 4 hours a day 6 days a week... |

I go to teakwondo class for 1 hour and 15 mintues for 5 times a day. I train by my self in MT for 1 and half hour a day. Then I lift one hours a day. I also run and jump rop for 30 mintues.
So about 3 hours and 15 mintues a day.
I am planing to do more running so I can last longer in training. |

- One hour-and-a-half lesson of kickboxing a week...and about 30 minutes of practising nearly every day.
- Running between 3-8 miles a day, 4 or 5 times a week.
- Sit-ups, tricep dips and press-ups every day (not many because they're boring)
- Skipping whenever I find a moment.
- At least 40 minutes of yoga a day.
That's about it.

I train at the dojo 4 (soon 5) times a week (for an hour and a half each day). When I'm not at the dojo, I practise for at least 2 hours each day at home (Kihon basics, Kata, and Gohon Kumite).
I also practise Kobudo, twice a week (or when I can) for an hour and a half.
I used to go weight training 3 times a week, but I got bored of it

Glad to know someone else finds weight-training so boring

I do (sometimes) use ankle and wriste weights whilst practising at home, it's suprising what a difference they can do, especially with blocks, kicks and punches.
