Deb recap of her week 9 of training. Stay tuned for weekly updates!




How this test works…

Elite Taekwondo Edmonton has designed a 1-year (minimum) test for each participant comprised of physical, mental, and social challenges that can be acted upon nearly every day of the year. All the while doesn’t stretch the participant beyond what is sane, balanced, and safe, but when totaled up for the length of the test, becomes great achievements.

160 push ups a day, completed in 20 simple rep sets throughout the day, would equal 58,400 push ups in a year. If the student could convince 10 other people to participate, the entire group would have achieved 584,000 push ups – this in itself proves a great lesson in how small things can add up to be significant accomplishments (and play a huge role in fitness). This is a lesson we hope to demonstrate and teach all students in our classes, the power to make big changes and achieve significant goals, by taking small daily steps.

Three reps of a single poomsae done every day become more than 1000 reps over a period of one year. What is the power of working on one thing 1000 times? It demonstrates commitment and dedication, something that I believe a student of Elite Taekwondo, testing for a Master level, should possess.
