[QUOTE="bbbom, post: 168457, member: 16301"] Aside from the recovery and strengthening aspects, maybe you are trying too hard and concentrating too much on specifics? I know back when I was playing volleyball, whenever the coach would point out a problem with the execution of a specific skill, whoever she was pointing it out on would seem to go backwards as they concentrated on changing their execution. Like during a spike drill, she would point out that I wasn't hitting with my elbow completely extended. I would try so hard to make sure I did it correctly I wouldn't be able to hit nearly as well as I had been. After awhile, the new technique would finally feel natural and my hitting would improve over the level I had been at before the backslide. We called it paralyzation by concentration. You may be concentrating so hard on "doing it right" or on learning new technique that you basically forget or neglect the skills that you have so far learned. Try to relax and work on the new techniques in the easier areas. In more difficult areas, just get through it the best you can until the new technique feels natural. Some of the stuff we go through takes my full concentration on the trail just to make it through unscathed. In volleyball, we would work on the new techniques at practice but on game day, it was imperative to do it however we could if the new technique was still awkward. Hope you feel better soon. [/QUOTE]
