Slow down

I've recently made quite a bit of progress, and it's all due to slowing down my movement.

When I first started getting better, I would be flying all over the place- going full blast and scrambling for position. It works well if you are faster or more athletic than your opponent (basically out-scrambling them), but there is quite a bit of room for error.

Lately I've been making sure to maintain pressure and minimizing unnecessary movements, and I must say that I have a lot more control in my game.

I think it's really more about precision than speed, but at this point I'm learning to be precise at slower speeds before I pick up the pace.
