This is a log of my journey to Shotokan Karate Shodan and beyond.

Monday Karate workout.

I took Saturday and Sunday off to rest my foot.  I have been having some problems with my left foot for the last couple weeks and I hope that the couple days off have helped it heal.  It didn’t bother my when I did my kata tonight.  It seems to hurt when doing side thrust kicks and roundhouse kicks so I won’t know until I do my kicking in class tomorrow.

One each of Heian Shodan, Heian Nidan, Heian Sandan and Heian Yondan.  Three each of Heian Godan and Tekki Shodan. (10 total)

I did slow motion kata with a powerful tense of my muscles at the end of each move.  I am hoping to help train myself to tense my muscles right at the end of the move instead of throughout the moves which has been slowing me down.
