SaiFightsMS Posted November 19, 2001 Author Share Posted November 19, 2001 Hi Jackmak, thanks for sharing your story. I have had torn rotator cuffs in both shoulders before I started karate. My training helped with that too. I tore my shoulders pushing my manual wheelchair in earlier days when the ms was causing extreme limitations. You know I have yet to encounter anyone with a problem who hasn't been helped in some way by training in a martial art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dreamer38f Posted November 21, 2001 Share Posted November 21, 2001 Did I read somewhere that Bruce Lee had one leg shorter than the other? If you think you can't, then you must. If you must, you will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gloi Posted November 21, 2001 Share Posted November 21, 2001 I think that when it is not always easy to achieve what other people take for granted then when you do get there it does feel good. I have a friend who is naturally athletic and who can do all sports so easily. Yet she smokes a lot and spends all her time in the pub and I just think, I'd give anything to have a body like yours and all you do is abuse it.

Kickbutt Posted November 21, 2001 Share Posted November 21, 2001 Alison....you will have the advantage when you're both older - she won't be able to continue at the rate she's going, so in a way you already do have the advantage over her. Instead of envying her, focus on your own accomplishments...
