I know my level isn't where it was yet, but I sincerely hope people are taking note on the structure of my trainings.
I don't know why over half the players "train" by obsessing over moves they can already do 10 times out of 10.
Then they wonder why they plateau so early and can only do 20% of the tricks!
Notice my slow but steady progression of tricks that goes kind of exponential. The warmup is built in and I don't have to run/skip, etc.
I sequence moves in rough order of difficulty and treat things like a checklist, not valuing any move over any other move. Mind like water.
Everything is as both sided as possible as to not create imbalance in the body. Focusing on the breath is key.
Once a category of move feels natural and is working well, I move on. Might test it in a drill later on, but there is no
obsessiveness.
I guess it's a pride thing in some people, mastering random moves that are above their level then dwelling on them. Or learning all the easy moves and never pushing after that. In this day and age of evolution in all things, stagnating actually means moving BACKWARD!
My trainings are a series of incremental CHALLENGES. I never focus on "feel good" moves to boost ego or self esteem.
Plan and write out your goals for that day if you have to. What are the tricks and drills that are on the edge of your ability?
General rule is = work on the easiest moves that you cannot yet do! Then once you got them, slowly ramp up the consistency.
Swallow your pride.

Someone please post this advice on the Facebook pages. I think it's really important.
