out of practice?

Question

Hi all,

please excuse me if there was already a thread on this, but I searched and could not find one. I am trying to think of ways to say 'out of practice' - could you use 'afuera de practica,' or is that awkward? What are some idioms with which you can express that you are a bit rusty in something? Thanks!

Answer 1

Estoy fuera de práctica.

Estoy en mala forma.

Estoy en mala forma- sounds like you're overweight or out of shape. - 0074b507, NOV 20, 2009

in English it is more so, but in Spanish is more like being off form, lack of training. - 0068e2f4, NOV 20, 2009

Answer 4

Estoy en mala forma- sounds like you're overweight or out of shape. - qfreed

In English it is more so, but in Spanish is more like being off form, lack of training.

Estaba fuera de forma pero ya he vuelto a encontrar mi forma. --- I was off form but I have found my form again. (like being in a slump)

Answer 5

Estoy desentrenado en algo - I'm out of practice in something

Falto de practica - Out of practice

A mi algo le falta práctica - I'm out of practice in something

(algo) está oxidado - It (the thing that I am out of practice in) is rusty
