They had to survive harsh living conditions.

Explanation:

The Mongols became known as effective and terrible battle strategists. They were like that, because they had to survive harsh living conditions, so they fought to secure their sovereignty. They have perfected their skills over thousands of battles. Even famous historical commanders, such as Alexander the Great and Hannibal, seem far less impressive when their achievements are compared to the smaller of the Mongol generals.

The Mongols relied heavily on shock tactics. Fake encampments, surprise attacks, psychological warfare and even the taking of hostages and the use of human shields were classic Mongolian strategies.

They liked to begin battles by attacking the enemy with a hail of piercing arrows, followed by a brutal charge of cavalry. Often the enemy was attracted to archers hiding behind a weaker mogul force, who apparently seemed to flee.

By attacking large targets, such as large cities, which they could easily encircle two at a time, the Mongols used to advance on extremely wide fronts, using the Yam system to communicate. They were also experts in siege technology and were of a savage brutality towards those who did not submit to their domains.

take five to 10 minutes to warm up and cool down properly.

plan to start slowly and boost your activity level gradually unless you are already exercising frequently and vigorously.

be aware that training too hard or too often can cause overuse injuries like stress fractures, stiff or sore joints and muscles, and inflamed tendons and ligaments. sports prompting repetitive wear and tear on certain parts of your body — such as swimming (shoulders), jogging (knees, ankles, and feet), tennis (elbows) — are often overuse culprits, too. a mix of different kinds of activities and sufficient rest is safer.

listen to your body. hold off on exercise when you're sick or feeling very fatigued. cut back if you cannot finish an exercise session, feel faint after exercise or fatigued during the day, or suffer persistent aches and pains in joints after exercising.

if you stop exercising for a while, drop back to a lower level of exercise initially. if you're doing strength training, for example, lift lighter weights or do fewer reps or sets.

for most people, simply drinking plenty of water is sufficient. but if you're working out especially hard or doing a marathon or triathlon, choose drinks that replace fluids plus essential electrolytes.

choose clothes and shoes designed for your type of exercise. replace shoes every six months as cushioning wears out.

for strength training, good form is essential. initially use no weight, or very light weights, when learning the exercises. never sacrifice good form by hurrying to finish reps or sets, or struggling to lift heavier weights.

exercising vigorously in hot, humid conditions can lead to serious overheating and dehydration. slow your pace when the temperature rises above 70°f. on days when the thermometer is expected to reach 80°f, exercise during cooler morning or evening hours or at an air-conditioned gym. watch for signs of overheating, such as headache, dizziness, nausea, faintness, cramps, or palpitations.

dress properly for cold-weather workouts to avoid hypothermia. depending on the temperature, wear layers you can peel off as you warm up. don't forget gloves.
