After last weekend my muscles seem to have remembered what it is like to exercise and have come back in line with what I expect. I have been working leg conditioning quite hard since coming back to training this month.
TKD on Sunday morning was OK, mildly tiring but I went through all the patterns afterwards. Out of the corner of my eye I could see Steven Elliot putting Darren Walsh through a totally gruelling session in preparation for his 2nd MMA in Cage Rage - rather him than me, hats off to anyone competing in these types of events.
TKD on Monday evening was again much the same and I video'd my patterns at the end. When I watched it back I was horrified by how poor my technique is.
Tuesday night I had a good training session at home (details in next post) pushed my fitness and realised I am not in top condition by any means. But had a gooooooooooooood stretch after and worked all round my hips for side split position and did some kick specific stuff.
Wednesday I taught TKD at a local school and did the same circuits I did the night before, which was probably not such a good idea because I had not recovered fully and I struggled a little.
Thursday TKD session was much better and got some good guidance from my instructor about my technique. Sparring was a little better. I had a good stretch straight afterwards for side splits and worked the hips hard again - I got lower and wider and today I am feeling it so will just do a light stretch tonight after some circuits.
I will get there for sure.
Was use will full splits be to me? You answer that question by commenting.
Cheers,
James.
