Feeling meh about aikido 

I really need to be going to the dojo more regularly but I just.... don’t fucking care right now. I’m tired and everyone there kinda sucks... that’s not charitable but it’s the truth. They can’t keep up with me at all and it’s hard to justify spending over 3 hours of my day to drive there, “train”, and drive home.

Feeling meh about aikido 

mostly the problem is people can’t fall. And if they can’t fall then I can’t throw. So I’m really just being a training dummy for everyone else.

@Fuego can you pick up another similar thing that's more convenient to drive to?

@angrboda I dunno. There’s a lot of bullshit around lineage and stuff and I’m not actually close to anything at all out here. I’d probably go back to Olympic weightlifting if I had the spare time
