Isolating Your Weak Points

We all have our strong points and our weak points and when it comes to our training we all have a tendency to invest most of our time in stressing those areas we are good with and this makes a ton of sense. We do, after all, want to bring our "A" skills up to the highest level that they can be. This, of course, would make the best sense for any serious practitioner. But, there also comes a time when you need to step back and look at those areas that you may not be all that great with and invest an extended period of time trying to pick up the skill level in those deficient regions. For example, if you have always found yourself weak with bent armlocks why not spend the next four months concentrating on them? This will not only improve an area where you have been weak but it will also change your training up enough so that it ceases to become stagnant. Remember, too much of the same thing has a tendency to get really dull after a while.
