day 21 & 22: Capoeira Blitz

Who says you don't get no inspiration from Bejewelled Blitz
First, i got me first 200k medal in 10 mins while waiting for a meeting
i get an inspirational rant about the industry and its fixation for getting the highest rankings
(see Rant and Roll Chapter 2:
then, because these days life gets in the way
but we're still lovin capoeira in the grass right?
Cueca and i have invented the 45 minute Bejewelled Blitz-inspired Capoeira Blitz
DAY 21:
15 minutes warmup
15 minutes floreio revisions
5 x to-the-max jogo regional - we practiced our standing kicks and up-game, been a lil out of practice, averaged 40-50 seconds per set.

DAY 22:
5 minute warmup
5 x jogo regional - average 50 - 60 seconds per set
7 minute break
5 x jogo benguela - average 70-80 seconds per set
DAY 22 we concentrated on putting our floreio and movements that we've been practicing into the jogo. A lot of times we do new moves in classes and practice it solo, which is easily ingrained into a solo performance, but it's so pretty damn hard to blood into your game.

i think we shall continue this Capo Blitz sessions should we have to squeeze in 45 minute park sessions.
we'll reserve the 60 minute ones for a little take-down and grappling drills
and if we've got more than an hour, only we'll take our time mucking about with floreios and mortals

It's about growing up
it's about economising
it's about knowing what to do and doing it efficiently
it's about Capoeira Blitz!
