One of the most important things I learned sparring in the dojo was about momentum and tempo, that when someone comes at you 100% on offense the response wasn’t to go 100% on defense, cause you’d still get worn down and wouldn’t wear them down any.
Instead it was to get more \u2013 but not completely! \u2013 aggressive, realizing if they’re 100% on offense they’re 0% on defense and if you go say 70/30, you’ll be able to land devastating shots on them while keeping them from doing it to you
