The only time frustration or anger comes out is if you score a Great point and no one sees it. Now you have to work harder to get that same point back. Competitions are a fantastic learning experience. Everyones aggressive and it's a lot of fun! It's also interesting to see how the different styles sparr.

If you get the opportunity, do leg extensions. They are great power for your kicks. Weight training is great. I prefer weights first then martial arts, you'll just be a little tight and it will not make you slower lol.

Thanks for the help guys. So yeah basically it could technically be a lot of things. Whatever you want it to be lol. It is a pulling grabbing motion.

Hello there, I found a good forum to join. My style is Shotokan, I've trained up to a black belt for roughly 4.5 years. Competed heavily for about 2 of those final years. Took some 1st place state champions in kata and forms in men's brown belt division a few years back. Took about five years off and recently rejoined. Feels great to be back as long as my work schedule stays on first shift.

Anyone know what the bunkai is for Kanku Sho? The 4th move is a stepping puch and then a wrist turn over. What is this wrist turnover, an escape? Slow or fast tempo?. Any knowledge on this move would be appreciated. Thank you.
