- katatedori irminage ai-hanmi
- morotedori shiho-nage omote
- suwazi morotedori shiho-nage omote, this technique was a challenge for me when I practiced with Andrea because I had to go very low almost on the ground, to keep her hands in the right position. I was able to finish the technique. I am not sure I have ever practiced this shiho-nage variation before, I need to spend more time practicing from hanmi-hantachi or suwaza.
This morning I went to the HAPLab and finished the physical stress, strength, and flexibility testing. I walked/ran in three minute intervals on the treadmill, with each interval increasing in speed and incline. Since I am currently taking a beta-blocker for high blood pressure,so my resting heartbeat is lower than the normal person. My heart rate cannot be used as the marker for when I approach my maximum reported exertion rate (or something like that). This is a self reported measure on a 6-20 scale, where 6 is sleeping and 20 is maximum exertion. By forth interval I self-reported a 15 but I felt I could go longer at that pace. Using this scale, I would estimate I reach 18-19 during various points when I am at an Aikido seminar. I rarely reach that level during normal Aikido classes maybe 16 or 17 at the most. I only was able to do 17 push-ups, but my flexibiliy test was very good and I was close to the norm for the sit-up test. Next week I'll be meeting Aaron at 8:00 at the Escalante Fitness Center.
