My instructor keeps having us bounce on our toes in line drills and sparring. He is really into tournaments and says bouncing makes a person faster. Does it really make a person faster?
I'm having all kinds of problems with bouncing though. It really slows me down and technique goes out the window. It slows me down because I have to wait until I'm on the ground before I can kick. Technique goes out the window because bouncing is so unnatural for me that I have to concentrate so much on it that the quality of the other moves suffers.
I think that is also what is bothering my back and right leg. I don't jog or run because the jarring messes up my back.
