Tyshler Training System

Technical and motor training, aimed on specialization of motor reactions.

Everything that happens on the fencing piste is, in majority of situations, a response to the sound, visual or tactile stimulus. The main method of improving the speed of reaction is the method of repeated exercise. The importance of motor reaction training has been scientifically proved in astronauts, pilots and other skills based professions as well as in the preparation of high performance athletes in all kinds of sport.

The Tyshler Training System (TTS) has eight different training programs – which could be used to generate an infinity of fencing exercises in addition to the ones listed in this instruction manual. The TTS Application is programmed to generate different sounds and signals to train simple motor reactions, choice reactions (choice between two possible actions), switching reactions (switching from a chosen action to a different one), anticipation of distance, footwork and much more besides!!

Everyone knows that to achieve good results in sport, or indeed in any endeavor, requires commitment and a regular schedule and training a few times a day and five days per week. The difficulty is how to combine this training time with your work and personal life – a problem now made much easier with the TTS – which simulates fencing bouts, individual lessons with your coach and help you with the footwork training. Repetition and focused isolated training of the most frequent and effective actions and movements used during a fencing bout or lesson, creates new possibilities for fencers to improve not only their technical proficiency, but also their speed, accuracy with the point, reactions and decision making times that one has to solve during a bout.
