That's a majority of it yes. I'm just saying, if you get hit by an 11 year old girl the same way as getting hit by 210lb professional fighter in the same situation, the power difference is going to determine some effects of recovery.

It's not even about the other guy, but rather pushing yourself to place out of your comfort zone and being forced to deal with it. I really enjoy training. The truth of who you really are is shown in the gym. Most people who start training usually quit because they find out quickly they aren't as brave or tough as they thought they were. Then you have the choice of humbling yourself to admit you aren't as tough as you thought and continue training, or quitting.
Only a few people truly have that warrior spirit, but most people don't.

Well said! I'd love to learn a martial art myself.
