CIC 2 Day 6

This morning we did some challenging techniques. I finally did a successful machine gun takedown! I didn’t have it done to me (by happenstance); it’s a little scary to be tipped over like that. If I can’t face my fear on test day, I’ll make sure she knows. I did fine with the big leg sweep and with having it done to me. That’s a big step for me.

We worked on defending ourselves against an attacker with a stick. Those were challenging and demanding.

After lunch, we took turns teaching. Everyone was kind of out of sorts. We all had our worst classes. That kind of stinks, but I’m glad we all hit the rut together.

My roomies and I came home and “defragged.” My homework for tomorrow is done, and I feel pretty good about my lesson. I want to feel like myself again to do the after lunch warmup.

Okay, I promised you a set list last week, so here it is.

Better late than never, right?

Today we tried something different, schedule wise. Also, we’re going to the gym as a group but just kind of doing our own thing. I started a new program on the BodySpace app. Unfortunately I can’t figure out how to show you my workout. I’m not sure how much I like trying to track on the app. I may go back to writing it out on paper.

After lifting for back & biceps, I did 20 minutes of cardio on the horrible hybrid stairmaster/elliptical.

Then we fenced according to our usual schedule. I helped new people, primarily, but I did some cut & thrust too.
