The last couple weeks I have been concentrating heavily on my kicks. Quality, consistency and speed. I took an approach to this practice in that I am doing the required number of kicks for the fitness test, no matter how long it takes, instead of seeing how many I can do in a minute. So far I am just over the 1 minute mark across the board. This is a good starting point I feel.
Last Saturday my kicks were fast, but lacked consistency and some quality. I decided to change my stance in one of my kicks and turn my focus back to the basics instead of straight speed. The interesting thing about this is they were not that much slower, but the difference in quality was certainly noticed. I will continue to work purely on the quality and work my time back down. The sacrifice on time is worth it. This goes back to the philosophy that you sometimes need to take a step back and adjust in order to get any further ahead. The sooner you back up, the sooner you can go forward, but with greater proficiency.
