Last night’s workout was very difficult for me.  It never is as apparent that you’ve been living on practically no sleep and working flat-out for days as it is when you’re in the middle of a karate workout. Sensei Tarrant devises these combinations that we do (usually 4-8 techniques) and has us to them on […]
