I Found The Best MINIMALIST Training shoes, The Feiyue Trainers

FitNish.com — Sat, 28 Aug 2021 19:10:21 +0000

For a while I have been looking for some minimalistic style training shoes. What that means, is that they should be relatively inexpensive, comfortable and be truly functional. I think I found them in the Feiyue trainers. ??

In the video below I give them a bit of a test run through some training and skating and give some feedback on what I like about the Feiyue training shoes. They truly are comfortable, not that expensive and provide such great grip compared to many other conventional training shoes.

The “Feiyue” name translates “to leap” or “to fly over.”

“Feiyue literally means “Flying Forward” and symbolizes the dual elevation of both body and mind. This lightweight canvas plimsoll first hit the streets of Shanghai in the 1920’s famous for its robustness, flexibility and comfort. Bringing together all walks of life, from workers, Shaolin Monks to politicians, Feiyue crossed borders and generations to land in France in 2006. Without losing any of its authentic vintage charm, this lightweight canvas shoe then underwent a series of transformations. Its DNA gradually evolved, combining French and international influences.”

Key Mental Health Advantages Of Martial Arts And Combat Sports

FitNish.com — Fri, 31 Jul 2020 11:42:18 +0000

Combat sport is a strenuous activity that involves rough physical contacts within the sport. Most individuals are intimidated to indulge in such games due to the rough nature of the sports. However what you may not know is that combat sports can have numerous physical and mental benefits to the participants. Remember though, there is always some risks involved in engaging in combat sports and these should be taken into account when choosing to pursue them. They can cause serious physical injuries, so just be aware of this.

A few of these benefits may include:

Brain health

The sport forces your mind to adapt to the unpredictability of the activity. Most people who indulge in the activities offered by jiu jitsu gym Melbourne for instance, note an improvement in memory retention and mental sharpness after a while.

Combat sports require more attention than any other type of game. It would be best if you were 100% focused on observing the movements of your opponent. Such a high level of concentration requires balancing your body, memorizing various moves, and learning new tactics. All those activities require your brain muscles to be flexed, improving your mental health.

Lowers levels of anxiety and depression

Combat sport is a strenuous exercise and stimulates the body to release high levels of endorphins. These hormones can be feel-good hormones that increase the levels of happiness while reducing any stress levels and anxiety. After hours of engaging in the sport, you will note heightened levels of joy and reduced levels of anxiety.

The game keeps your mind involved, thus gives you minimal room to think about stressful situations. For people who have insomnia due to high levels of anxiety, the game will help to eradicate such problems. After completion of the strenuous exercise, your body will be exhausted, and you should be able to sleep a lot better.

The high levels of endorphins also help to prevent fatal conditions such as depression.

Boosts social skills

If you are suffering from mental issues, then you understand how intimidating it is to handle the problem alone. The combat classes and competition can give you a supportive team that will help you deal with your mental problems.

Combat skills involve interacting with various people in and off the combat field. The recreational activity also requires the incorporation of teamwork. All these aspects help you to better associate with people that surround you. It boosts social skills that modern education systems might not be able to give.

Cognitive benefits

Martial arts have a powerful impact on your cognitive abilities. It is mostly useful for young kids who are still in their developmental stage, and the brain has not fully matured. The exercise needs them to make instant decisions in the competition arena. Such quick thinking stimulates the brain to think faster and come up with solutions more quickly. The long term effect of such activities is the improvement of cognitive brain capabilities.

Lastly, combat sports offered by various gyms and martial arts centers like Gracie jiu jitsu in Melbourne make up a rigorous exercise regiment that involves the engagement of every system of the body. The exercise stimulates the production of numerous hormones that have mental health benefits to you. The long term benefits of the sport are a robust brain performance, a sharp and sturdy brain, and improved cognitive abilities not to mention the physical and muscular benefits.
