Heh Heh Heh,
great stuff. I've been through some quite serious training myself (although it did cause kidney failure to someone from dehydration) but generally I think you can have, and it is important to have training which tests your psychological and physical limits (but without causing damage).

Without being psychologically strong there is no chance we will be able to get puched full force on to the floor by someone twice our size, and then be able to get up and fight. Also, there are many times when it is hard to do what you think is right and you feel you have to follow the crowd, but looking back on those painful times always makes you realise that some things are more important.

P.S. one of my students vomited during a short run up a hill before outdoor weapons training last weekend - and I'm sure it did him good.
