Its been nearly two weeks since my last post and I've found several flaws in my character already. I'm bad with discpline making regular practice a very hard thing to do. That being said I'm trying to find fun ways to train to give me a better insentive to at least point me in the right direction.
I've gone out and bought a reflex bag and have been practicing 'dodging' attacks and learning to keep my eyes on a moving object while builing lower body strength by continual weight shifting. Thankfully I've been pretty succesful at making the bag rotate and change direction fairly often making the dodging a little more intense. Hopefully this will couple with the fact I've started practicing various flexibilty exercises from tai chi and jujutsu.
My fatal flaw is that I've got very little upper body strength. My lungs are weak and my body and arms are in miserable condition. I've been trying situps and pushups to help fix this. I'm trying to think of a good way to train my lungs. I'm not good at running but so far thats all I've come up with. Back to the drawing board on that one.
First two weeks (of serious training): Goals-> Begin to gain discipline (semi-failure) Training menu-> Pushups, Situps, Reflex bag, flexibility excersizes and stamina training. (I need regular practice for improvement.)
