For me, the answer looks something like this: wake up, work out, eat, read, sleep, read, eat, go to karate class, eat, read, sleep, repeat.
Fortunately, there are a ton of Kokondo dojo in the state of Connecticut, and my weekly schedule looked something like this:
- Monday, 6:30-8pm: Master Robert's Jukido class
- Tuesday, 4:30-5:30pm and 7-10pm: Master Betancourt's Jukido classes
- Wednesday, 6:30-8pm: Master Robert's Jukido class
- Thursday, 4:30-5:30pm: Master Betancourt's Jukido class
- Thursday, 7-8:30pm: Master Scanlon's karate class
- Friday, 6-10pm: Master Betancourt's Jukido class
- Sunday, 7-9pm: Mr. Dylag's karate class
In Master Betancourt's basement, I work on my karate kihon, and also use a rubber exercise band to work on my throws.
See that setup there, with the rubber band, and the metal pole? If you try a hip throw and you don't get enough pull, the band will snap you back and you'll slam into the pole. If you try a throw like harai goshi and the angle of your leg is off, your heel will crash into the pole. If you try morote seoinage and you drop your elbow, the band will slip off your arm and snap into your ribs.
