No special moves?

I finally got Super Street Fighter IV. I enjoy games, and I really enjoy Street Fighter. I haven't played significantly since Street Fighter II, but I still enjoy the game. The struggle to get "better" has been a fun but slow process. I have done a bit of reading, and have played a decent amount of SFIV, but I didn't feel like I was making progress.
So yesterday I decided to try an interesting experiment. I am trying to play without using any special moves. I'm a Ryu player, so it feels incredibly weird not throwing fireballs to manage distance and not pushing jumpers with DPs. But I feel like I am getting a better sense of the difference between the close ranges and recognizing whiffs. I'm curious if this will be the onset of become a better player. I think the plan is to slowly try to add specials, supers and etc. to the mix so that I use them well and not just spam fireballs over and over. We'll see where this goes.
