Football: MA Training Helps

UK -- Manchester City (football/"soccer") midfielder Stephen Ireland had a fine campaign for the club over the last season, with a new-found consistency and maturity helping him to fulfil the potential he had shown only in flashes over the last few years.

Ireland spent last summer training in a small town that borders Manchester, engaged in intensive martial arts training. He thinks that his new fitness and strength, both physical and mental, is due to the effort he made a year ago, according to goal.com.
