Krav Last Night

I went to Krav last night after another two week absence. I swear it seems like I've had a hard time getting to my classes recently. I'm really glad I went last night, though. I was going to go to the yellow belt test a couple of weeks ago, but I came down sick and had to miss it. That's the main reason why I didn't go the last two weeks. I was feeling pretty crummy.

It turns out I must not be up to full speed as much as I thought I was. I had to sit out several times. I haven't had to do that since my first class. I just didn't have any wind last night. I had a couple of moments where I was light-headed as well. A lot of that probably has to do with the fact that I'm out of practice as well. I need to get back into going on a regular basis. I probably should check out one of their fitness classes as well. I'm paying for it so I might as well use it.

We actually did a technique last night that I haven't done before. I had assumed that I had seen everything in the basic level because I've been going to the basic classes for so long and everything we do seems to be a repeat. Apparently that is not quite the case. We did a front toe kick. The only other kick I've ever done there is a straight up the middle, basic kick. This was actually a forward kick. I was a little surprised given that we've never done it before. I did fine with it, though. It's a kick I have practiced enough times at home that it wasn't a problem. Yes, I practice kicks at home. I know... I'm a weirdo.
