    Post Duct Tape, WD-40, and a Pocket Knife

    If it moves and shouldn't, use the duct tape.
    If it doesn't move and should, use the '40.
    If it's on there and doesn't need to be, use the knife.

    Simple tools, simple uses; but a bunch that you can get done. Of course, a body's going to need more than these three things in the toolbox, but these will be the most called upon. And since these will be the most used, well, you're probably going to keep a fresh roll of tape, a full can of WD-40, and a sharp knife at the top of the box.

    Same thing in martial arts. You have your core techniques and methods, and you have your secondary tools. Generally speaking, you'll probably train your "bread and butter" techniques the most, whilst keeping your other stuff sharp and polished. But, you'll keep coming back to your core.

    So, how much time would you say you spend training between your "core" methods and your "secondaries?" Do you even draw a distinction, or do you place equal emphasis on all tools in your box?

    I see my master seated in Paradise and Paradise is beautiful and green; with him are men and boy servants.
    He calls me. Take me to him.

    In all seriousness, I probably spend about 50% of my training time working on my fundamentals. Given how little I have trained lately though, that is still 50% of nothing

    I want freedom
    All right now, son, I want you to get a good night's rest. And remember, I could murder you while you sleep.
    Hey son, I bought you a puppy today after work. But then I killed it and ate it! Hahah, I´m just kidding. I would never buy you a puppy.
