Understanding Mixed Martial Arts Psychology
Nov 6th
Fifty years ago, boxing arena was the place to be if you wanted to show off your sportsman skills. Mohammed Ali and Mike Tyson were what every young boy aspired to be. However, old will always give way to something new, and this is just what happened in the arena of sports as well.
The era of boxing is now fairly over and its place has been taken over by mixed martial arts. Much of this new interest spurs from the fact that there are hardly any good fighters in this sport anymore; this has led the young generation to turn to MMA, or mixed martial arts.
What is MMA?
Mixed Martial Arts, which is more popular by the name of MMA, is an action sport which borrows certain combat techniques from several martial arts which have to be used against each other by the competitors. The two primary techniques involved are striking, grappling and Brazilian Jui-Jitsu. Those acquainted with MMA will know that whereas striking involves moves like kicks and punches; grappling will require deals like sweeps, holds and throws.
MMA has banned techniques like biting and eye gouging which are banned in most other sports as well. Since MMA events are area specific, it depends on the regional organization whether it allows the use of moves like head butts or spinal locks.
Rules of the Game
Being a relatively recent game in the history of sports, the rules of the game are not vast as yet. It began with a very few rules, in fact, only as much as necessary. With time however, as MMA developed into one of the biggest sports of recent times, the number of rules increased; and the game is more organized and strict than ever before. MMA still has no central authority; because the rules are still under the governance of regional authorities, and hence they vary from one area to the other.
After you’ve mastered the rules and played the game according to the techniques, it is up to the judge to decide which competitor wins the match. The judge is the supreme authority in this case, but two more people can contribute towards the final decision taking; these are the corner man of any competitor and the doctor who takes into account whether a player was injured.
Connection with Psychology
Mental agility is an important requirement if you’re looking to win any match, and this goes for any sport, not just MMA. You are wrong if you think that MMA is all about a physical show of strength and making the correct moves. In fact, after you’ve finished learning the various aspects of the game and can play fairly well, you will have to devote some time in thinking about how you can outplay your opponent both mentally and physically.
Mental preparation is therefore an essential element of training, and you have to devote adequate time and training to this aspect of your fight game to succeed at the elite level. Many of the prominent MMA champions and other combat athletes hire professional sports psychologists to take their game to the highest level. There are also many “alternative” sports psychology methods that are becoming increasingly popular, including NLP, hypnosis and energy psychology.
Stephen Ladd is known as the Renegade Fighter Mental Coach, pioneering the use of cutting-edge alternative psychology methods like NLP, Hypnosis and Energy Psychology specifically for the combat athlete who wants to dominate their opponents and be victorious.
