Train your neck!

congrats, keep it up!

while your shin is healing, look into an anime called "hajime no ippo" - I bet you'd like it.

I just watched it. Great movie!

I usually dont watch much anime because its hard to find them with English subtitles here. So I watched it in Japanese. Some of the technichal words were a bit difficult, but I managed to understand about 60% of it. Enough to understand basically what was being said.

I quite enjoyed it. It really captures the experience of a ring fight. More so than anything else I've seen.

I'll have to try and get a copy with subtitles from somewhere.

Thanks for the tip!

you can get them on ebay. There are two movies and the series has 76 episodes. The series really gets into the technicql side of things - training your legs for endurance, getting power into punches, cus d'mato and the peek a boo guard he taught tyson, haggler and his flicker jab... It's great.
