The main throw you attempt (the dropping seio of sorts) has good grip and some idea but you don't commit to it. The direction is also off. I get the feeling your brain has clicked into "grip and down on an angle", but there's more to it than that for the drop seoi. You do have a good "body configuration" when you attempt this in some of your other videos but commitment isn't there and throw direction/opportunity is wrong.
What's really letting you down is your feet / stepping. You're somehow ponderously heavy in a way that I can't quite explain.
You've had three of us here tell you pretty much the same thing and suggest some options for you. Will be curious to see where you go next.
TL;DR: if you want to improve your judo, improve your foot speed and stop dropping.
Thanks. What is it about the angle and opportunity of seionage that is wrong; and how what would be a good way to improve foot speed and stepping? My gym offers a Mauy Thai class; would it be worth it do do that to get better at footwork and moving around?
It sounds like my main problem is general lack of fitness and coordination more so than anything related to judo...
