Sometimes you miss

In this clip I attempt a press technique on Alex who senses my attack and yields neutralizing my force. I start to move a little more sloppily and collapse inward in an attempt to draw him in to an attack. I also utilize a shortcut to shorter energy emanating from the legs with less arm movement with the intent to time his attack. When Alex gets bold enough to attack me ,in that moment, his strength becomes substantial. I can receive that force and send it back to him if I listen carefully for his issuing of strength.
