    How long does everyone here train per week?

    callsignfuzzy Is not a number!

    Three hours minimum, but sometimes more than ten. Depends on school 'n' stuff. Some of it's formal, some of it's informal, some of it's solo (mostly conditioning).

    Usually between 4 and 8 hours a day during the week, usually just 2 hours a day on the weekends, and that's 7 days a week. I do take days off here and there, and I don't train strength and conditioning everyday in order to avoid over-stressing my body.


    I've been kinda lazy since my last tournament though. After this weekend I'm going to have to really kick it in to high gear.

    6 hours of class a week (3 X 2 hour classes), plus whatever I do in my own time, which varies.

    prabably 10-14 hours a week. that includes training outside of the dojo cause school prevents me from going to class more than 2-3 times a week.

    Jeez, all you guys who can afford the time to train 10+ hours a week. :p

    Right now, where it's summer vacation and I have some time on my hands outside of work, I train somewhere between 8-10 hours a week I would expect. Once I get back to the city, it will probably drop a bit, as my studies will demands SOME attention. :woo:

    None right now, which is driving me nuts. However when I am fit to train 6 hours. Although when I can go back I'm hoping to get some more class time by going to another local karate club.

    sn11 Woosh! Bang! Ow!

    Currently at my club 3 hours of lessons, then whatever i can do when im at home.

    But i'm starting up another class aswell soon. So hopefully that'll add on my training time :D

    When I do it... 2 hours coaching Monday, 2 hours training. Wednesday is 1.5 hours training, Fridays 2 hours training, Saturdays 2 hours coaching. I don't do them all each week.
    Apart from that, I run 3x a week, swim when I can, and cycle as often as I can too.
    All makes for quite a fit me!

    Thanks for the replies.

    Yeah, I used to only have about 2 hours and 15 minutes of in-class training per week, but now it's up to about 6-10, and some training outside of the dojo.

    2 hours per class, 2 classes a week (I come from a long hiatus and don't have time to train as I used to either :()

    at the moment 1 hour class time, 2 hours in my own time (punch bag in gym).

    although I thoroughly believe that 1 hour class time can be more valuable the 4 hours of class time in many places I've seen.

    of course if you can get a good class with more training time then the better.

    I know what you mean. When I started art school, I had to take some time off of the martial arts. But I didn't let it stop me luckily.

    about two hours on Tues/Thurs, about three hourss on Fridays. Plus I do strength and cardio conditioning Mon/Wed/Sat for about 1.5 hours per day since I compete. My only real day off is Sunday.
