Last night I saw “Rocky IV” again, which is an
inspiring sports movie, molded on the career of undefeated boxer
Rocky Marciano, who died in 1969 in a plane crash. “Rocky IV” showed
a contrast between natural and technology based training methods,
but which is better.
Advances in science and technology have provided
greater training capabilities to modern athletes in a variety of
sports. Coaches are able to calculate their athletes progress in a
more accurate and detailed manner. Injured athletes are also using
technology for quicker recovery times.
However, old fashion training methods are not to be
discarded. It builds up a natural endurance, grit and roughness. The
body benefits from challenging natural workout as well. A mix of
natural and technology based training session for athletes can
provide great results, taking advantage of the best of both worlds.
