How much do you actually train? I have a feeling that we generally vastly overestimate how much time we actually spend training. I'll gladly consider any art-specific training as "training," but I hesitate to consider running and weightlifting as "training the art." For instance, I do a circuit routine 3 times a week that incorporates specific movements from BJJ, designed to improve my cardio, but I don't consider any other extra physical activity I do to be training in my art.
I generally work out twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening, for a total of about 2.5 hours a day, and generally 4-5 days a week. I have a 4-5 hour stretch of training on Saturdays.
All told, I'd say I train about 12-15 hours in an average week. If I had to have guessed without actually tallying it up, I probably would have guessed about 4 hours more that that, but I'd be wrong
The reason I question is because I see some people claim 25 or more hours a week and I just don't see how you can do that unless it's practically your job. I know that 13-15 hours feels like a second job. And some of those 25 hour a week guys have wives and kids etc...
So, tally it up!
Just curious--not trying to pick an "I train more than you" fight
