Judo not only just an art and sport

Judo is an art where it is actually closely associated with science. The founder Jigoro Kano had explained the effectiveness of the art in terms of sound physics and psychology. It does not mean one who is bigger in size is most likely to win in the art of judo. The main thing about it is the proper technique over excessive force. A good technique actually means the sound application of strength that comply with the natural laws and scientific principles that will help to maximize one's efforts. It is also this emphasis on techniques that allows a smaller person with proper training to defeat a larger or stronger person.

Take for example in physics, newton's laws of motion are critical to how one can keep balance and to unbalance an opponent. Using momentum can in fact be real efficient than using isolated muscles to create the same amount of force. Sometimes it even involves using opponent's force to maximize the power of your throw.

Using science thus can help one improve greatly in judo. Some specific principles include applying one's energy in the direction your opponent is moving and exploit leverage to maximize your strength. Judo is as much sa science as it is an art. As much as one can express feelings, have its own style in this art, the technique of judo must be effective. Using the principles of science is essential if one is too achieve the maximum results.
