The Martial Artists' Training Log

TKD Class: 6:00 - 7:00 pm. Taught class. Covered lots of forms, both new forms after testing results came back, and reviewing old forms. We have decided that we are going to start holding the students more accountable on their old material, as they tend to let it slip after a while if we don't harp on them in class to practice it. It is likely that we will begin testing students on previous forms in testings from now on, too, which I think we should have been doing for some time.

Wrestling: 5:45 - 6:00 pm. With football season coming to a close, Wrestling season is just around the corner, so Kendall and I are going to start trying to work on it some more. Today, we did pretty much some free-flowing takedown work, snaps into Iowa twist, and sprawling to the Iowa twist.

TKD Class: 6:00 - 7:00 pm. This was pretty much an open kicking class, as the instructor is gone this week. I was there pretty much to supervise, and I still can't train worth a darn with the virus I have lingering. I did do some front push kicks on the bags, trying to develop more power and burst with that kick. I also worked with a student on their ax kick variations, and working on sparring strategies for them, too.
