Year One taught you to show up. Year Two puts you in the fight.

366 new daily lessons on pressure, combat and self-mastery.

Available now in eBook, paperback and hardcover.

Most people quit by February.

The ones who make it a full year find out the real problem was never motivation. It was pressure. Pressure at work. Pressure at home. Pressure inside your own head at 5 a.m. when nobody is watching.

Year Two trains the part of you that breaks first.

What this actually is

The Daily Martial Artist: Year 2 is the follow-up to The Daily Martial Artist. One short lesson for every day of the year, written by a professional Muay Thai fighter living and training in Thailand.

Every month is one part of a real fight. Every day ends with one action to take before you go to bed. Reading about discipline is still just reading. The rep is the training.

Twelve months. Twelve parts of a fight.

Feb The Guard · protect your focus and energy

Apr The Clinch · stay calm when there is no space
May The Check · take the hit and answer back

What is inside

  • 366 dated daily lessons. Two minutes each, one for every day of the year.
  • Today's Rep under every lesson. One specific action to take before the day ends.
  • A Reflection Prompt with writing lines so the book becomes your own record of the year.
  • A monthly fight brief with the month's rounds, the standard and your one commitment.
  • 12 Round Review scorecards to score your discipline, focus, composure and recovery each month.
  • The Year Two Oath to sign before you start.
  • The Final Bell Workbook to review the year, rewrite your Warrior Code and write to your Year Three self. 426 pages in print.

How it is used

1. Read: one lesson each morning, before your phone
2. Rep: do Today's Rep before the day ends
3. Reflect: one honest answer at night
4. Review: score yourself at the end of every month

You do not need Year One to start Year Two. Together they are two full years of daily work.
