A blog about a little boy who dreamt about being a knight when he grew up, and the man he grew into. A blog about that man's love of the sword. A journal of the many paths he will travel in order to become a master swordsman, a skillful teacher of swordsmanship, and maybe even a successful businessman. TL;DR - Chasing the dream. With swords.

Training Journal- Day 10
April 26, 2012
Warm Up- Fun with the 6kg medicine ball! 5 minutes: wall tosses, 5 minutes: pushups w/ ball, 5 min situps and twist sit ups w/ ball
Solo Drills- measure drills (10 lunges from each measure with each hand. 80 lunges total)
Partner Drills- Collar and elbow key exercises, cutting defense drills (defense in mezza tempo, and dui tempi)
Slow Work- N/A
Full Speed- N/A
What Worked- Arm didn't quit on me. Strength is improving.
What Needs Improvement- body mechanics during lunges. need to focus on order more in future drills (shoulders first shoulders first shoulders first shoulders first shoulders first) my passing steps need to go in a straight line instead of in an arc.
Follow-up for Next Time- footwork drills and slow lunges in front of a mirror
Other Notes- passed the theory portion of the measure and control assessment. Combat test next week. Tablet comes back today, will be asking Devon if I can make a ghetto e-book from the Fabris translation.
