Karate Session

Warm ups

Same as per usual

Kihon

We did this slightly differently to usual - less combinations but with more emphasis on the shoulder and hip movement for the single techniques. Felt useful.

Foe the kicks my hips appear to gradually be loosening again so i am feeling mawashi geri and yoko geri kekomi less uncomfortable in the hip (mawashi geri was actually hurting a while ago). Soon i should be able to start increasing the height again

Kata

Multiple run throughs of Tekki Shodan. Also ran through heian Godan and Sandan plus Heian Shodan in Ura which was interesting

Kumite

Practicing some jiyu ippon kumite drills. Was useful practice. Initially stated attacks then unstated.

Finished with some more kata

Overall good class. Also got confirmation that i will be grading again next mth (in about 3wks)

Thanks! Think it is in a slightly different location this time but fingers crossed it will all be fine. I try to take the view that all i can control is do my best on the day. Worst case i get direct feedback from an 8th dan on what i need to improve on!

Lifting Session

Back Squat

20kg x 5
40kg x 5
60kg x 3
72.5kg x 5
80kg x 5
90kg x 5
72.5kg x 5

Left knee started to feel a little funny after first backing off set so decided to call it there. Had got main weights done already and no sense risking an injury for additional volume

Standing single arm kb press (total reps = L+R)

20kg x 12
20kg x 12
20kg x 12

Was happy with these as they felt very strict with both arms

KG Swing

24kg x 15
24kg x 15
24kg x 15

These felt smooth and easy. Could have done more reps i think but wanted to stick to the program. Think i will invest in a pair of 28kg ones soon

Rack chins

6 reps
6 reps
6 reps
6 reps
6 reps

These are gradually increasing nicely and i don't feel like the band is being used much (which is good). Will work up to sets of 10 and then reduce band in case it is doing more than i realise!

Banded triceps pushdowns

11 reps
11 reps
11 reps
11 reps
11 reps

used same band as for the rack chins. Quite liking how this feels

Total poundage : 6580 kg
time : 35min
density : 188 kg/min
