I normally like to be switched on but lately I’ve been finding being relaxed to be more helpful for my development. I’m getting hit more but I’m letting my hands go and not being as scared to get hit and being too defensive.
Im finding I’m not trying to punch as hard in sparring and my training partners pick up on that and we get better work in. More exchanges in general because we aren’t as tense and scared to get bombed.
This has been happening partly because I’ve been sparring really hard lately and quite frankly I’m tired of getting hit super hard during sparring. I’ve also been going ultra stoned lately which helps me flow, but also makes my eyes super bad to the point where I’m flinching or closing my eyes lol.
I need better eye and defensive training.
Idk I was bored and wanted to get my thoughts out. I’ve been hard sparring for the past 2-3 months with a week or two intermission but I finally feel I’m hitting a rhythm with my training partners who are all bigger/better than me and improving. Feel free to talk about anything semi-related lol
