If you have limited access to your dojo and want to keep improving and practice kendo at home you already know one of the best ways to do so is through suburi. Whether you're an experienced Kendoka trying to perfect the most minute details or a beginner trying to put in practice what their sensei has taught them the day before, suburi will always be an essential part of one's kendo journey. Smart Kendo - Suburi Trainer aims to make that practice be more motivating and more fun. While not a replacement for a sensei and proper advice, this tool will help you keep track of your suburi statistics and try to remind you to keep practicing. Whether it's to push you to do a bit more than you normally would, or make sure you don't do too much and hurt yourself. You'll be able to adjust the number of suburi you want to do daily within the app and let the app automatically keep count while you practice. Turn on "Save workouts to Health app" and automatically synchronize your workouts in smart kendo with your Health app!
