It's a nice analogy.
I ran into one of the guys who used to train Judo with us. He was training at one of the other clubs in town because he wanted to compete more. He said he was really only doing two throws now. This is the competition game, where you incessantly drill one or two things thousands and thousands of time. By the other token, most of our folks see three throws their first time to visit class, and in a few months have developed probably close to a dozen throws.
