JusticeZero Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Okay. Focus on training the things you can do safely. If the class is doing 50 punches and 50 kicks, sensei permitting, do 100 punches.

DWx Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Holley, I really would take JusticeZero's advice. I know you're eager to get back into it but just an extra week of waiting may prevent you from injuring yourself further and having to sit out for months. About 3 - 3.5 years ago I landed on my left ankle funny and sprained it bad. I rested it for a bit, but then jumped back into training far too soon. Came down from a burpee and landed on it funny and sprained it again within a month. I had reoccurring problems (twinges, mild sprains) for nearly a year because I didn't have the patience to wait it out. Prevention is a lot better than cure. I really would wait if I were you. And I'd wear an ankle support for a good few weeks when you do start back training.
