武者训练

Stamina Exercise
耐力训练

Although you have the right attitude,
纵然你心态端正，
It's not enough to avoid a strife.
仍不足以从容应对搏斗。

Although you have a heart of fortitude,
纵然你意志坚韧，
It's no assurance of saving your life.
也无法保证保全性命。

You may have spent years in training
你或许经年累月苦练，
In the art of fighting you love so much.
浸淫于你所热爱的格斗之术。

But if you are winded in a sparring,
可一旦在对抗中气喘力竭，
It proves that your condition is such,
便足以证明你的体能尚有欠缺，

You need plenty of workout on the road,
你需要大量路跑训练，
Running two, three or more miles a day
每日奔跑两三英里甚至更远，
Until your body can take more load.
直到你的身体可以承受更大负荷。

Then comes a day you see the light,
终有一日你会豁然顿悟，
You look up at the sky and then relay:
仰望苍穹，心中了然：

“Skill in performance is all right,
“技法娴熟固然可取，
But it's not enough to prove your might.”
却不足以证明你的真正实力。”
