italian_guy Posted April 30, 2004 Posted April 30, 2004 Period like that happens... To me they happend mostly in change-of-season periods. So no wonder why they are happening now.Here in italy the weather is changing, now it turning to a better weather but is still not stable and people (also myself) feel odd.
Pacificshore Posted April 30, 2004 Posted April 30, 2004 Sometimes things other than training occupy your mind/thoughts, and your not even aware of them. Better week next time . Di'DaDeeeee!!!Mind of Mencia
superleeds Posted April 30, 2004 Posted April 30, 2004 Have you ever had one of those weeks in MA where you feel like everything you're doing is wrong and that you're a total klutz? . ALL the time Read a book!

angelica d Posted April 30, 2004 Posted April 30, 2004 I have klutz weeks almost every week, in fact its rare for me to come out of a lesson feeling satisfied with my performance. But then I get those REALLY bad days, when I can't even do a front stance! (Slight exaggeration). Seriously, last night I felt really awkward doing even the basic drills. Eventually I got into it, but not for ages. Anyway, its not as bad as in my driving lessons - every single lesson is awful!

Mart Posted April 30, 2004 Posted April 30, 2004 Hey angelica do you train in your own time. This help alot. When i train on my own i do it slowly and concentrate on running through everything i know so that i really get thinking. I think this helps alot. I think the key is to do it slowly on your own. Seize the day!
shotochem Posted April 30, 2004 Posted April 30, 2004 No matter how long you train it just happens. Some days my brain just takes a day or 2 off, other times the brain is good and the body is out to lunch. Then of course there are those days when it all comes together. The greatest thing is when you get a night where you are just ON and you just cant do anything wrong. I had a night like that. All through drills and sparring everything felt like it was going in slow motion around me. I just seemed to know what attacks were coming at me before they even threw them . I was untouchable!!! Unfortunately, that is not the case the other 99% of the time. Pain is only temporary, the memory of that pain lasts a lifetime.

Bah, no one ever seems to be watching when I get an MA night like that. G Money Slick, my black eye was a genuine accident. These things happen in karate. "Was it really worth it?
