Training Log: Entry 270

MT Tonight

Warm-up
Drills
Conditioning

Notes: Feet still very torn up from before.  Spent most of tonight flat footed.

Drill 1: Partner teeps, defender evades by scooting body away while keeping feet planted.

Notes: Stick ass back, rather than just bending forward.  Otherwise, gonna get kneed.

Drill 2: Same as above, but attacker throws boxing combos

Notes: Defense was doing better.  Keep hands higher on face.  Decent job patting and slipping.  My second partner was a jerk.  He wouldn't throw punches, he'd throw teeps with no set-up, hindered learning experience.  First partner was cool.  Still got a defense flinch.

Drill 3:  Same as above, but defender throws leg kick and arm kick

Note: Same lame partner as the one that messed up last drill.  Wouldn't throw counter kicks.  Got to practice my own at least.  Keep hands up on kicks, but didn't get defense penetrated too bad.

Sparring with goal of evading teeps and countering.

Partner 1: Got to work my outfighting.  Throwing long straight punches, leg kicks, etc.  Defense was doing good, evading most teeps.  Still need to point lead leg away when checking kicks.  Wanna work that lead hook more.  Hook, don't slap.  Step in to throw it.

Partner 2: More outfighting.  Didn't get to throw too many rear leg roundhouses.  Worked my punching combos more.  Used a knee to deflect a lot of teeps.  Not the greatest idea.  Still stick that leg out on checked kicks.  Keep those hands up and guard.  Work active defense.

Conditioning: Feet are torn apart badly.

 

Personal Note: Have now completed 2 years of this log.  When did I get so old?
