bushido_man96 Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 That sucks! I'm with ya, brother. On my birthday in Nov 2005, I tripped over my cat on the stairs and sprained my ankle. ON my birthday! It's the same ankle I've hurt four times previously. Damn cat just looked at me howling. I could tell she was laughing.That's why I'm a dog person! That's some tough luck, Kez! I hope it doesn't slow down your class time! https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shotokan-kez Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Luckily my cat keeps away from the stairs with the kids up and down them all the time. My wrist isn't as sore now, just got a big bruise. Just thought it was a very strange injury to happen. Walk away and your always a winner. https://www.shikata-shotokan.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baronbvp Posted February 22, 2007 Author Share Posted February 22, 2007 Tonight the callus I've been building up on my left foot ripped off during drills in Muay Thai class. The skin under it split open. I hope I don't get an infection. This is exactly why I've been considering MA shoes, though no one else wears them. I washed well when I got home so I should be all right.It didn't distract me while sparring, but I can sure feel it now.

baronbvp Posted March 5, 2007 Author Share Posted March 5, 2007 Well, I just had minor surgery to remove some skin cancer from each side of my face. (Too much sun and surf in the 70s/80s). The doc said no full-contact MA for 4-6 WEEKS! Aaauuuuggghhhh!This sucks. Makes sense, but it sucks. I guess it's time to transition to my stretching regimen and attend class to learn by osmosis. I will try to start training lightly again without face contact in a couple of weeks if I can. Man...

bushido_man96 Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 That's a bummer, Baron. You can still train, though, so it's all good! https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baronbvp Posted March 5, 2007 Author Share Posted March 5, 2007 I guess I watch my last few classes of MT from the sideline. I can still learn while I sit, but man. My new arts: Muay-not-so-Thai. Jeet-Kune-don't-touch-me-Do. Only as good as I make myself be, only as bad as I let myself be.Martial arts are like kinetic chess. Your move.

baronbvp Posted March 11, 2007 Author Share Posted March 11, 2007 Today I worked out for the first time since surgery. Tomorrow night I will try to go to class after I get the stitches removed. Even if I have to stand and not participate much, I want to go. Today I hurt my right delt somehow when I was mounting my heavy bag, but it's pretty minor. All part of the game!

bushido_man96 Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 I think it is great that you still have the drive to want to be at class, even if you can't participate. I am glad to hear that you will be going back soon! https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramymensa Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 I think something like a strained muscle or similar. Lately I have more "civil" injuries (i am such a clumsy person, I always end up hitting myself) World Shotokan Karate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
