    I've been training in various martial arts over the past 10 years and depression has been with me every step of the way.
    Buying new gear has helped me lot at certain times. Last year, in mids of a major depressive episode, I got a new rashguard.
    I put it on, looked at myself in the mirror and went: "daaaaamn son! looking good!" that was the nicest thing I've had said to myself
    in the past 3 months. Sometimes you just gotta treat yourself.

    Buying new gear doesn’t make you a better fighter but it encourages you to work harder for me anyways. Especially when I buy gloves that has good feedback on the bags (that crack), it motivates me to keep going because it’s such a nice sound.

      All they are saying is if you are feeling down buying new items will give you a moral booster to want to get in that gym. Some people have humbled themselves & dont need this kind of encouragement to stay motivated thru self discipline but none of us battle the same way of mind.

    It’s been well-established, in both the scientific literature and in our real everyday lives, that what we wear affects how others perceive us and how they will treat us.
    There is a growing field known as embodied cognition, which is the concept that we think, not only with our brains, but with our physical experiences, and this seems to include the clothes that we are wearing. Your physical appearance is also closely tied to your self-esteem. The higher the level of self-esteem, the more likely one will be to treat others with respect, kindness and generosity.
    Looking good is feeling good, but just as diet and exercise work well together, feeling good is also looking good. There is a strong connection between looking your best and feeling capable and empowered. Our self-confidence, self esteem and efficacy in life are definitely affected by how we look and feel.
    When you take the steps to take better care of yourself by dressing in a way that feels good to you, as well as making the important physical changes you may desire, you can drastically improve your life.

    I will say I'm more cautious sparring against guys with cheap gear.
    I had gotten myself some sparring gloves from Top Ten, the difference in the way I throw my shots had improved and combined with the fear of getting hit with crappy gloves made me more confident in my offence and caused me to pay more attention to my defense.

    Honestly I can see what he means when he says buying new gear can make you a better fighter, now I’m not saying that buying new gear will make me a better fighter compared to someone with used gear but it does make you a little more motivated. For me it’s like when I buy boxing gloves that professional boxers use or buying equipment similar to what pros use in their gym it gets me excited to train because I feel like I’m training just like a professional does. Especially when you got favorite brands it makes you wanna get their latest stuff and want to train with them in the gym. Of course nothing beats consistent training and practicing technique but yes I do agree that buying new gear will make you a better fighter.

  • @brokenradio9590
    @brokenradio9590 Před 5 lety

    It sounds weird but it's true, another way of seeing this, but buying new gear can also be a way of saying "well I have it now so I may as well use it". And wanting to use it more often makes you train more often. And funnily enough red and black is my favourite cooler combination, so ifuck your going to to beat someone up/get beaten up, you may as well look fabulous doing it. :)
