Drills

What are your favorite solo drills?

 

[Marnetmar]

I tend to think of what skills I need to improve and make my own drills on the spot based on that.

 

[Flying Crane]

Practicing fundamentals, basic techniques, stancework, and forms.

Bagwork when a heavy bag is available.

 

[Kung Fu Wang]

You should make your favor entering strategies into drills.

For example,

- Guid your opponent's leading arm to jam his own back arm (both of his arms won't give you trouble at that moment).
- Take him down, and end the striking game.

Don chi sao. Simple enough movements. Does suck without the other person though. Most of the drills can be done solo with a little imagination lol..

My current favorites:

• heavy bag work (this tends to be fairly free-form, but usually includes me working sets of combinations, with an entry)
• staff kata (I like the grip exercise it necessarily entails, the balance work, the body conditioning, and just the focus time)
• stick work on heavy bag

What I work on changes with my aims. Right now, I'm not working on anything specific, so am enjoying this set. I've got some foot surgery coming up, and when I get started back after that, I'll be focused on balance. Likely, I'll start out with a lot of kata, to avoid much strain on the foot. Then I'll probably do a lot of kick drills once the foot is ready.

Rolls and falls. You can never be too good at those. These also happen to be the skills we will most likely need to use outside of the dojo.

 

[Buka]

Drills - shadow boxing.
Exercise - planks.

My favorites have only changed about fifty times over the years.

Heavy bag work with punch combinations mainly as main stay. Including chain punching.

Whatever else I need to work on basically. At moment more drills geared towards me coming back from last year health wise. Can't do very much even with stop kicks at the mo.
