Blocks are too advanced

Last week Kendo Sensei gave me some really helpful tips on my technique after Ji-Geiko (free sparring). I always get told to stretch out and relax, as these are massivie problems of mine.  However this time I also was told to be more aggressive and don't block - blocks are too advanced!

I have been training 2 1/2 years (3rd Kyu) and I find that somewhat hilarious that I have not been training enough to block, but Sensei was correct. Afterwards I have tried to concentrate on just attacking and keep up lots of spirit while attacking and this has been really helpful.
