2006 Workout #78: Its a secret to everyone…

Tonight, called me right around 5:40 pm to tell me that he and were going ot workout in Pekin for an hour. I made a quick call to my ever-wonderful wife to make sure we didn’t have other plans, and away I went to the dojo.

We took turns alternating kata… they would do one of theirs then I would do a Sochin. Right around #13, I started to get really winded so told me to try doing a few like “a walk in the park”. I did around five that way… it really allows you the time to focus on the fine points. I found it easy to take the time to work on corrections that way, I may employ this method as time goes on.

We tried a few odd methods of performing kata… once mirror image (which is REALLY hard with Sochin), and twice with eyes closed. I ended up the hour and fifteen minute workout with 21 Sochin kata, not bad for an unplanned workout!
