Sucking ass at fencing of late...

I don't know what is wrong, but of late I have just been totally sucking ass at fencing. Physically, I'm reacting fast, and mentally I am either overthinking my game or just not working things right. I've been getting whomped, and it was pointed out to me that my style has changed in a bad way. Apparently I am telegraphing my moves pretty bad.

Not helping matters is that my leg-to-hip joints have been hurting. I have no idea why. It only comes up when fencing.

This is starting to really bug me. I don't know if it is just mental distractions or that my heart just hasn't been in fencing of late. I don't want to take time off from fencing if the latter is the case. That tends to just make things worse.
