Indeed I was! Still am in fact, until tomorrow!
Oh Lord, what have you done! I’m 55, and avidly reading that website’s (from an early reply) guides. Last skateboard I had was blue...
Yes, I think so. Things are loosening up a bit, and whilst 3 hours a day, 3 consecutive days (and 2 more to go) is right on the limit of what I...
Just over half way through springs training camp. Whoop reckons I’m burning about 1500-1800 calories a day, and I rather suspect it’s about right....
Took a while, but very happy to have graded! Next week is Spring Training Camp. Two 1.5 sessions a day, Monday to Friday. I think it's going to...
Still training. I’m still aiming for 3 sessions a week, but only making it twice, probably half the time. I need to remember, I’m still 55 fat and...
Glad I went
Today is the first time since I restarted that I’ve not felt like going to class. Three times a week is hard for a fat old bloke, but the only way...
Having been away from karate and similar arts for more than two decades, my primary focus now, and probably for months to come, is flexibility and...
First time training in class three times this week ( Monday, Tuesday, Thursday). Definitely felt it Friday! Sensei confirmed there will be a...
No idea what got autocorrected to “best swivel”! Last nights class was very intense. A LOT of time on Heian Nidan, sharpening up. Tonight is...
So, like I said, I seem to enjoy training much more than I enjoy writing about it! I am still training. I’ve been trying to get down twice a week,...
Thursday 26th August Well. Thankfully, I enjoy training MUCH more than I enjoy writing training logs! Two nice surprises at training tonight....
Thanks @axelb and @Mitch, I think (I’m sure) you are correct. Whilst I can get my foot onto a hip-height support, and stretch into it, I can’t...
Thursday 19th August Feeling much better today. Confirmed not Covid, so looking forward to training tonight!
Wednesday 18th August Still sick.
Monday 16th August Pretty bad stomach bug since Saturday. I fear I’ll have to skip training tonight. I hate to do so, but at times the stomach...
What I miss is a training partner, or partners. When I was younger, we would train every evening that there wasn’t a class. And often after class...
Thank you, that makes a lot of sense!
Thursday 12th August Part 2 Another good session tonight. The first few, Sensei had me joining in with all of the black belts, with whatever they...
