The Choi-Bo System - Component 5 - Choi-Bo Combination Drills 

For a system to be complete it should have an aerobic and an anaerobic component.  Aerobic and anaerobic training challenge the body differently, and so have different adaption benefits on the body.

The effect that combination drills have on the cardiorespiratory system could be likened to short, moderately-paced sprints.  But as well as challenging the cardiorespiratory system they also develop speed and agility, as well as decisiveness.  With the level of effort that they require, they can stimulate the anaerobic energy pathway.  Not only do they challenge the body differently, but requiring more effort they also challenge the mind to be more fully engaged and so improve a participants ability to focus, commit and to follow through.

Choi-Bo is a superior system for long-term health and wellness purposes, so we train systematically, and our focus is to avoid over training.  Research studies have shown too much anaerobic training can cause high lactate levels, which can lead to fatigue and suppressed immune function in athletes.  Therefore, in Choi-Bo, although we do incorporate Combination drills/anaerobic training as a component to our system, we are aware of the studies on anaerobic training, and train with caution to stimulate the body and mind, and not over train anaerobically.

Many people desire to lose weight/body-fat, or simply keep lean through being committed to exercising regularly.  In more recent studies, interval training is proving superior for effective weight/body-fat loss.  Once a participant is properly warmed up, Choi-Bo Combinations Drills are ideal as a means to lose unwanted body-fat!
