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

Monday Karate workout – 2/11/08 – Kata and core.

February 11, 2008 by doug Leave a Comment

I haven’t been keeping up with writing my workouts on here but I want to start again.

I did a quick warm up and then did 3 x 15 of lying side leg raises and 3 x 15 of glute / ham raises.

I then did one each of Heian Shodan, Heian Nidan, Heian Sandan, Heian Yondan, Heian Godan, Tekki Shodan and Jion. I did these at a slow pace but paid extra attention to my breathing and my kime. At the end of each move, I focused on my breath and tensing the correct muscles.

It was a good workout and I plan on doing my kata like this more often.
