training update


well training is going well dont actaully think my prescion is 10ft which is a pain but am glad to say my drilling has been paying off my prescion is bigger than what it used to be so I have reached my target on a bigger prescion. Been working greatly on my abilty to link movements together especialy on my climbing. I was looking at my terrain to see what movements I could come up with that would get me pass everything as fast and effeicnt as possible. What I love about this place is there is lots of high level balconys and walls you must climb up makeing it an excellent place to practice climbing ill get some footage of me doing a run there some time . My freind timed me and I expected to get somethink like 24 or 26 seconds on this run but got 18! Really surprised me.

Kick boxing is going pretty well still got to get practice abit more on my punching combos but Id say my fitness from parkour has given me a great starting point and edge over alot of the other students am training with. Id say my strong point is kicks at the mo so after the xmas holidays am going to start working more on my kickboxing going to have to train hard got My first tournament coming up.

So here are some targets am going to be seting myself for the end of the christmas holidays.
Improved cardio
Faster and stronger kicks mainly my fronts sides and round houses
And finally get some punching combos down.

Inspiration


Inspiration comes in many forms tonight my Inspiration came in the form of a 5ft somethink kicking machine who compared to me is light years ahead in his training and mind set. He is my kick boxing teacher!. Tonight he talked about how we go about geting our black belts that we must run up mountains and do pad work for hours on end then move across an assult course 3 times in 11minutes. I myself can onley imgaine a small percent of this but the way this man talks about it makes me veiw my own training and mindset and makes me feel like a grain of sand next to a mountain. I still think infact no I know I have yet to feel real training to feel what it is to truely be strong like david bell and my kick boxing teacher.


This is what makes me want to drive foreward and get stronger to keep crossing that bridge to maybe even glimpse what david and my teacher feel. This! this is my inspiration I think this post will be good to look back on in darker days yet to come. So to anyone who reads my blog if you feel like you have no Inspiration no fire dont give up hope as Inspiration comes in many forms!! You just have to keep looking and be hopefull.


I hope every one has a merry xmas and a happy new year all the best with your training
