Post 71~
Congratulation to myself~
For writing the 71st post.
Well, but i was told that i have been writing too much about myself. Should write a bit more about other people... I guess it just shows that I am generally a self centered person, which makes it a good reason for me to practice kata.
Today started off with warming up as usual. Just that Sensei asked us to run in round rather than back and forth in the dojo. When done in a different manner, I didn't manage to judge the distance and thus pushing us moving more than usual. But i guess it is a good exercise, just that we are a bit too tired for subsequent training.
Sensei lead the training today himself. Starting off with punching sideways, not even twisting the hip. Ivan said it is called Kagezuki, haven't check with sensei about the name. With this, it will be 5 kinds of variation for the basic punches to start the lesson with. Of course, kicks can be added in as well, which will make more variation.
Although it has been explicitly stated before, where is chudan, where is jodan, but a lot of juniors are still punching in between chudan and jodan for chudan, and too hight for Jodan. Lack of training? or is it just ignorance? With the shoulder locked tight, and throwing in with all the force without control and coordination, it just looks wrong.
This is especially scary when i need to spar with the junior without countering. In normal situations, the 'hooligan' punches are best defended with a nice sharp counter punch straight into the stomach. But when that is being prohibited, blocking and evading is really difficult, but i guess it is a good training.
Anyway, as I have mention in the previous post, for beginers, don't think of doing all the fancy fancy stuff in the begining. Always stick back to the basic, learn from the basic. Without the basic, the practice of fanciful technique will not move one forward.
And I seriously think that technique comes first, then speed and power. A lot of juniors are still throwing their punches and kicks with all the speed and power in an incorrect manner, which is quite dangerous. For one, it becomes a big and lengthy technique that can be evaded or counter easily, and two sometime it causes one to lose balance and fall easily.
But i really wonder does my word register in them.
While carrying a pile of paper in office today, suddenly my memory refreshes.
I used to train punching home-made-makiwara as well! Telephone book.
The person holding will train his or her gripping, while the person punching, (by right) should punch exactly to the target (that is why it is called target training) hard and fast. When the hard cover of the telephone book comes off, the second part of the training is to tear off the page with the twisting motion of the knuckle at the very end of the punch.
Been talking about doing a diary of training.
Is this my diary of training? In a way, it is; but i didn't put all the things into detail.
Perhaps is this 'old' thinking of mine, which thinks that the training that i do in the dojo should only be known to the seniors, the juniors, and to those who are training under sensei. Should i blog all the details out here? Or I should keep myself a written book?
