It all depends on the kind of music. Try putting on traditional chinese. It will relax you. And you will stay relaxed for the remainder of your workout.

Em true but the question was warm up in karate,and I think you dont want to be relaxed in a warm up it should be a little bit more than relaxing. THANKS FOR THE REPLY

Generally speaking the music can only help during the warm up, then it's best to get down to some serious graft!!!  |

Yes, I agree that music can only help get you pumped up and ready for whatever workout you are about to partake in  The type of music doesn't matter as long as it works for you, hehehehe. Although hmmm that is a somewhat sweeping and risky statement for me. One day I walked into this taekwondo school that is fairly close to mine. This facility was very roomy and high-tech, and sure enough, going with my favorite the-more-run-down-and-dirty-the-dojo-looks-the-better-the-training rule, the students seemed to be warming up to 'Genie in a Bottle' by Christina Aguilera blasting out of the majorly expensive and hi-tech stereo in the corner. What irked me even more was that it wasn't even time for aerobic kickboxing  Oh well, whatever floats your boat I guess! hehehehehe

I see your point, but it doesn't have to be this way. If you're dedicated and disciplined in your training, you'll concentrate on pushing yourself to keep good technique while keeping up with the beat, whether it's faster or slower. Of course not everyone in a class is going to have the same drive, that is what instructors are for. They need to keep an eye on their class to keep them motivated to use good technique. To me, the possibility of bad technique isn't a reason to turn down the challenge, it's an excuse to be lazy. |

Dont have a prob with music however picking music that appeals to everyone can be difficult. In our gym we play the radio over the speakers and people are always saying turn it to this or that, it is a pain.

Music is great for warm ups and cardio routines. I would not use it certain areas of a traditional lesson when focus is required on technique ref Tobias point.. However music can help develop rythum and timing two key skills for sparring. Don"t knock it till you"ve tried it.
I was reluctant to use music in a class from a respect point of view. Untill I attended a training weekend with Dan Innosanto. He used background music of rythmic drum beats.
If it"s good enough for Dan t"s good enough for me. |
