Exhaustion

Last week ended in complete exhaustion. Going from next to no class participation to going to the kwoon five days (in a good week) has been a hard but necessary change. Each week I have been trying to push my physical and mental limits bit by bit, but I tend to find myself at my limits by Friday. Two days of rest a week have been more common than I would like, I hope that soon these extended rests won't remain in my training schedule.

Bad Habits

What led my downfall in my last year in the I Ho Chuan was inconsistency. This bad habit filled my last two weeks. My numbers are far behind and I have put more pressure on myself because of my inactivity.

Although numbers were lacking, I feel I made strides in understanding my techniques and movement. Last sihing class really hammered the idea of controlled movement, and I found myself in a better place with my centering than I thought I was. This week will be better, in all aspects, because I know that consistency is the only way that I will succeed this year.
