    Week 1:
    Topic: Grappling from the Outside Line.

    Plan: Use DuelloTV’s Videos for lessons

    Contingency: In case of clouded by Brain Fog or any other ADHD symptoms, instead of judging myself, just go into the rabbit hole on Swordplay topics on youtube or articles or manuscripts.

      Day2:

      Worked on DTV’s cuts and thrusts from Chinghiara and just exploring how to use the minimum muscles to get the max results.

    Starting to get comfortable telling myself to check out the journal now, and definitely feeling better with the routine building up with it’s help.
