It’s one thing to be able to take a punch to the stomach but your mind has to be ready to tell your body you can take the hit plus release a hit and bounce back from it, you could do all the physical work and still not be prepared to get hit anywhere and have to deal with that hit. Your mind has to be able to tell you one thing so that way you react the opposite way you would if you had no experience.
