Whether I teach a high or low energy private lesson depends on the client’s energy level.

Housekeeping Matter

Today, I learned that subscribers to this blog have not been able to access my most recent post. I tested the issue in Incognito Mode on the Chrome browser and found that I could not access the post. I have contacted the support staff at Jetpack/WordPress for the resolution of this matter. In the meantime, I have changed the settings to the post to “Public.” Go check out Video of the Week 10: Pushing/Tulak.

Back to the topic of high and low energy private lessons

I often counted on my flow drills to energize them. Sometimes, it worked. Often, it did not. Over time, I learned to adjust the energy level of the session for the client. Many have jobs and are often tired at the end of the day. Sometimes, they would arrive for a session with job-related frustrations and pent-up energy. That called for a high octane workout.

Ditto for a young man who just finished his first year of college. The poor guy was worn out from his final exams.

I have applied this philosophy to my workouts. I usually have abundant energy when I go to the local gym. However, it usually starts to wane near the end of each eight-week block, like right now.

My last break was the week of the Houston Modern Arnis camp in February. Soon, my wife and I are leaving for a vacation. As a result, I adjusted the eight-week block to nine weeks, and I’m feeling it now. I’ve adjusted my workouts to account for my flagging energy in the past week. My last workout is scheduled for Friday, and I’m looking forward to the break!

Decisions! Decisions!

Before you venture into the wild jungle of the Internet, might I persuade you to fuel my caffeine addiction ☕️. Your kindness could be the very thing that keeps the keyboard clacking and the ideas flowing!

I need your help defraying the increasing expenses of the blog/website. I’ll recognize you for your contribution. 😉
