Hey all,
I've been training Karate for 10 years and it's always been my greatest love of all.
I used to train 3-4 times a week and haven't trained for about three months due to some stress in life and work and I barely moved from my couch/ chair. I completely sank mantally.
There's nothing more that I want right now than going back to training and seeing my second family again in the Dojo.
However, I've lost a lot of weight, then gained a bit back but still not feeling fit or strong enough, if at all. Not even for Kata which is my speciallty.
I'm trying to find a middle ground and want to ask - would you recommend simply going to training or doing it gradually somehow?
I want to give my all again like before, but I don't think that it's a good idea to go drastic.
At the same time I don't want to insult my coach saying that I'm limited in movement and afraid of injury.
Anybody who could advise me what I should do, how to train and for how long in order to get back to full power?
Thank you in advance and I appreciate all answers,
Dee
