Lesson 1 in blocking. Get a different hold that you don't need blocking for rookie

[@royquanstrom6318]

Thanks for the advice! To me blocking is cool and can represent its own level of mastery within movement theory. Blocking holds does a lot that single holds can’t achieve, no matter how cool the shape is. This could be a cool way for you to enter into a higher level of thinking about setting. To me, the biggest rookies are those who are unwilling to consider different ideas and don’t try to apply themselves to the way setting has evolved. Thanks again, these are the type of conversations we’re trying to have.
