Week off due to knee injury. Pretty minor I think, but still frustrating. I came off a week of the best rolling I'd ever done. Everything was clicking, I had the "why can't I do this every time" thing going.

Then I have to go and tweek my knee at work of all things. Bummer.

I have to ask, how many drunks were you wrestling when you did this???

GS, I wish it were a cool story like that. I was piling out of the SWAT van on vehicle assault training in full kit. Somehow I tweeked my knee between the getting down and turning in the direction I needed to go. Go figure. It could hardly get more pathetic.

I'm back to work tonight and plan on starting to work out again on Monday. Hopefully, transitioning back goes smooth. Feels good so far.
