My mistake, writing that I would focus on Judo for a couple of months, I meant a couple of years... Anyway, I can't honestly say I'm cofortable with my striking. I feel that my TKD training has given given me a couple of bad habits in addition to all the benefits. My kicks lack power in sparring due to point kicking training, and I don't feel that I have any handwork. I actually consulted my instructor on this (I thought about switching to Kyokushin), he advised me to stay in TKD and take part in his special blackbelt team, who's training is more combat focused, as well as complementing my training with boxing at some point. And thanks for the tips, I loved the article about focus mitts. (Sorry for my english, I'm from israel)
