Three weeks have passed since I've begun my training, and I can say it's been hell.
If I missed 5:00 am by 1 minute I was nagged relentlessly, If I messed up one movement I was forced to restart the whole exercise, even worse I still had to do the Saitama training afterward.
The only thing I can say I gained from these 3 weeks is a vague understanding of where I can restrain and throw an opponent.
I'm still not strong enough to complete any of the moves on sensei, but development is development.
Today I'm learning more about basic joint locking.
"If you get a hold of your opponent's finger, pull your opponent's hand down quickly,the reflex is to bend down, this gives you the perfect opportunity to strike"
"ok that seems easy enough"
I charge at Takeda and try to get his fingers, he responds by flipping me on my back, knocking the wind out of me in the process.
Panting I ask him "Can't you go a bit easy on me"
"Do you think my sensei ever went easy on me, If he did I would have been working as a dish washer"
That's you're problem you fucking senile old mand
The day passes and I eventually get home and pass out on my bed.
Moms Pov:
Hata's been coming more tired each day I wonder what type of training he's been doing, maybe I should ask that sensei of his to tone down the training.
But I guess Hata's really determined.
Mc Pov:
Today I woke up at 4:30 like usual, I took a shower, brushed my teeth, and got out the door in a timely fashion.
I ended up getting to Takeda's House in time and the day seemed to be going well.
I knocked on the door and Takeda answered, we went to the backyard as usual and he started teaching.
"This technique is useful for if your opponent is standing running or jumping, This is very simple if your opponent is approaching sweep their leg"
"That easy"
"Yes now try it on me"
I already know how this was going to go but I was still going to try, he approaches me at a pace that I can keep up with, when he gets close enough I pull back my leg and attempt to sweep his leg and I ACTUALLY CONNECT AND HE FALLS DOWN!!!.
I cant believe that I actually hit him, I bet he gonna act all proud and deny my success.
"good job"
Now I feel like a bad person
"You're ready for the next step now"
"whats the next step?"
"you'll find out tomorrow"
Takada throws me out the house and tells me to rest up for tommorow.
Takeda Pov:
Everybody deserves a break sometimes, and look how happy he was.
