With the holiday season, there has not been a lot of time for fighting. Christmas Eve and New Years Eve fall on Thursdays this year so I am cancelling fighter practices.
Still hitting the pell 100 times a day with each hand. It's making a difference but is not helping with active defense. Holding the shield while throwing shots helps build the muscles but it's difficult to understand moving the shield defensively without someone throwing back at you.
Little items like fakes involving shield movement can be practiced, but still needed to be used against an opponent to be verified. Learning to throw shots around the shield is good as well but there is a tendency to use the shield as a counterweight and swivel the whole torso when throwing a shot, thus moving the shield out of a good defensive position. I find I do this most when throwing shots left handed.
