Tiring training..

First half training of today was tiring. No rest between different technique of basic training. Leong Lok Senpai said that was sensei's order. In the end of 1 hour, my sweat really soak my Gi. Haha... but it is a nice feeling, especially punching with a soaked Gi, it gives a better sound.

Basic training today (Don't think i can remember all, but here are some):
1 Gedanbarai Shikoudachi forward and backward.
2 Gedanbarai shikoudachi, shift open front leg gyakuTsuki zenkutsudachi, shift front leg gedanbarai shikoudachi again.
3 yokouchi nekoashidachi, back leg maegeri move forward, move another step forward oitsuki.
4... (ah.... can't remember already....)

People who have stance floating, when they move forward and backward, their shoulder will go up and down together. I am wondering, is it because the shoulder that cause them to 'float' while moving around? Also, there is a tendency for them to push all the weight to the front leg, leaving the back leg very light. As common sense tell us, balancing with two legs is always better than one.

Enshin Kumite (円心組み手?) is an interesting way of training one step sparring. One people in the middle, and several people surrounding the person. The attack comes in one by one, at a fairly fast speed. A lot of us are not used to change our target from one person to another in that speed, consequently not able to block or block wrongly.
Our group do it in a fairly slow manner, so that we have enough time to recover and change our focus to the second target. The other group however move continuously. No complicated movement, just simple technique. But getting it accurate and sharp is the difficult part.

Today's 一言: tired....
