Trickery and strength? They could do that, but only if Silverpaw could actually make it through the lesson, seriously the apprentices lack of stamina was a bit concerning. It'd been some time since the tom had been injured so he should be better by now and they hadnt been training long.... Sure being disabled took stamina and suddenly there was one less limb to take the strain but this was an aspect Silverpaw really needed to improve.


....They'd talk on it later but for now stances.


"Ok so to pull of something like that youre gonna wanna mimic my stance, it'll help you stay strong and stable in battle but also convince cats thats all there is too you.



Paws a bit farther then shoulder length apart, and pin your ears/tuck your tail, you want as little available to be used harm you as possible. Most stances would have you bend your legs to use them to spring away but dont do that, lock them instead it'll make you more stable, also set your shoulders back instead of forward so your more upright and tuck your head in close.


Once your in position I'll come around and gently shove you a bit so you can learn how to position yourself to fall less, that's gonna be critical with your leg. Cats are going to try and take advantage of it being gone so get into position and Ill kinda just keep shoving until you can stay upright against a blow."


It wasnt going to be pleasant training really but it was critical, without a leg to keep planted on the ground to withstand a blow it was easy to topple over, a death sentence in battle. So like muddy learned with being pushed over again and again until the lack of a foot on the ground didnt mean they'd fall so would Silverpaw, and the tripod would keep pushing until the tom learned.
