Relaxation ...
... is the key to good Kung Fu. For tonight's workout, I was all-but asleep. I'd had a busy day of problem-solving, little sleep the night before and I skipped lunch. Add that to a nice, heavy meal right before working out and I was dead on my feet by 6:30 this evening. Mind you, I was still in the game at 10 pm, playing some good, solid Chi Sao with Zach and Owen. My legs were ready to collapse and I barely had the strength to lift my arms. As a result, my horse stance has never been more rooted and my techniques have never been more powerful.
The only bad thing about my sleepy Wing Chun workout was that getting hit was like being awakened with a bucket of ice water ... delivered on the end of a fist. I'll get that Five Sacred Mountains' Rising Dragon Wave (Rozan Shou Ryuu Ha) working yet, but for now ... you guessed it: the pillow beckons. Oyasumi-nasai!
