Don’t Bypass Technique

As I continue to progress through this recovery, I find myself taking some calculated risks.  

For example. Kicks.  

As long as they don’t involve pivoting, I’ve been attempting to throw a few kicks here and there.  And I’m finding that I’m really having to focus on technique, rather than power or speed.  In a good way.  

I’ve got to be in complete control.  I have no choice.  I need to stay grounded throughout.  I need to stay solid and balanced.  I can’t just fall back into my stance, I need to consolidate, and then step back with control.  

What’s really cool about this is that my situation has forced me to do this, and now I know I can.
