There was once a new bb that joined the dojo. He introduced himself by asking unsuspecting students to go kick for low kick with him , no pads. He quickly built a reputation as a hard guy, until we went to a tournament and couldn't fight at all.
For competitors and senior belts, hard sparring is a useful inoculation against the bumps and bruises sure to come. As an everyday thing you end up losing students to injury and recovery.

I reckon heavy body conditioning and medium to hard sparring with a lot of drills at a quite fast pase.

I love GJEC's saying above,"power on pads, placement on partners"..
So far from my experience I have gained benefit from both types of sparring. I am grateful to have an instructor who makes us first go light rounds, then the next few rounds are heavy. As a result we get an equal dose of both levels of contact regularly.
