MY Youtube channel is a thing that doesn't get updated much nowadays. In fact, this vid of some Tonfa practice in my garage was edited from an unintentional recording by my rear dashcam. After about an hour of training, these are all the times I actually bashed those balls.
With each weapon, the placement of the strike is just as important as the rest of the kata. While the strikes I'm performing here have not much at all to do with the kata I am learning (and will be graded on in the coming months) for yellow belt, I am slowly improving my accuracy using this setup. Well, I was using this setup... it's mostly destroyed, now. I need to string up some new balls, or some other apparatus, with targets I can aim at. Maybe Ikea can help.
It's been an embarrassingly long time since I successfully completed anything other than a rehab program. This month I completed my Good mornings program and have just begun another, after an appropriate rest period. I have also been hitting quite a few personal records and technical personal records over the last few weeks.
I've mentioned the young'uns I met recently, who are training Strongman. One of them, Charlie, came to grips with tacky for the first time last Sunday. While I'd tried to gird him, nothing can prepare a person for their first experience with tacky and Atlas stones. Afterwards, he swore he'd never use that stuff again until he had some stone sleeves.
Kinda wish I had a vid of that.
