Inline Skating

14/05/2010 : training with Sylvain on braking

Running

Statistics by session (no chronological order)

Note that dates and average speed per point should be added. Also plots are generated from the command line now but are unfortunately still not interactive or automated (dedicated data page fetch through ?action = source + exec). The regression should also be dated to display evolution over time.

Martial arts

creativity is useful even in such a fast-paced context
- not limited to strategical and tactical preparation
  - the actual confrontation is a result of such previous phases, real-time execution of previous decisions that decided of the contextual closure (environment, number of opponents, time allocated, resources available, ...)
- without a unpredicted move advantage is most likely limited to skills (power, speed, technique)
- leveraging whatever resources as tool in whatever the situation might be toward one single goal

Lessons

Cramp
- By having nervous system stimulated just make the crampi muscle feel the external sharp pain to pass the cramp
- potassium and calcium is to avoid such problems, there are tablets in stores , buy and eat as its suggested doze
- Cramp on Wikipedia
- Chow Line: Potassium-rich foods deter muscle cramps, Sharron Coplin, 2003
balance
- spine
  - not just yourself but others, thus in confrontational situations too
    - there can be no powerful impact without strong resistance
      - if you break your opponent balance there can be no damage done to you
        if you can predict the strike you can know where the balance is thus how to break it
  - "One must first learn to control oneself before attempting to harmonize and control others." Principles of Aikido by Seidokan Aikido
  - your own physical backbone, like the structural walls of a building
- not just to learn how to maintain but also to learn how to lose
  - learning how to walk, as this is not an innate process
  - swim
  - dance
- Inspired by
  - Walk back from the pool
  - Using PostureMinder
  - Watching talks cognitive efficiency mentioning the right position of the spine

Exiting databases of video recording/data sets/models/... of fighting techniques processed through machine learning to be used on humanoid robots.
