Tell me something good...

Oh that's right I remember now damn my brain I really need to take my medication
It’s ok, I had to take a Tolkien break to rid my memory of those travesty movies they made. I was never so angry as when I saw what they did to that man’s fine books. I would have seen Peter Jackson dragged by horses for his crimes. He may as well have **** on the Mona Lisa and called it art.

Agreed. The Lord of the Rings movies stayed close enough to the story that I wasn’t upset by them. I appreciated what he did with a monumental task.

The Hobbit was shocking. He just re-wrote the whole story and much of it was downright ridiculous.
 
I am constantly trying to find techniques to incorporate in my personal fighting toolbox, that is back-friendly and that is effectively and conserved energy. I often come up with ideas and in kumite that dont work as well as in my head as the only way to pressure test stuff with timing is to actually do it.

The good news is other day I find an something that will be keeper and that i will develop.

The idea is to incorporate more sabaki movement, and do it forecully and immediatel counter with a turning attack of some kind. This is perfect for me for several reasons and it make me happy that this seems promising. The core idea is that with limited footwoork, instead use hard deflections, and blocks, with only single stepping, and merge the evasion with an immediate counter.

I will probably look more at som of the MA that does alot of sabaki for inspiration, like aikido. continuing the initiated circular motion and turn it into a counter is smoother for the back than bouncing back and forth or reversing motion. It also save lots of energy. All good traits for me!
