PoppaDLo Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 So I have been involved with Kosho for years and we also work Japanese Jiu Jitsu. As of a few months ago I started up with a Yoshitsune Combat Jiu Jitsu (Soke Michael DePasquale Jr. system) and the dead arm's are beating the hell outta my forearms when punching in. Any suggestions?I can tell you due to blood test and seeing a doc it's NOT any underlying condition so that's ruled out.Thanks Gang,Poppa http://www.unitedfitness247.com/martial_arts.html
GeoGiant Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Hmmm. Unfortunately I don't think I can offer anything other than more conditioning. I have this issue with my shins. The hard part for me is finding the median between contact / conditioning and rest / repair.

DWx Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 I have a friend who swears by witch hazel.That's what my mum says . That and arnica cream.Although both of them are for treating the bruises rather than preventing them. "Everything has its beauty, but not everyone sees it." ~ Confucius

honoluludesktop Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 Bruising can come from hesitation. Don't ask me why, just something I noticed over time. However if you are not hesitating, then it could be biological, and you may need to see a medical specialist.

honoluludesktop Posted April 11, 2011 Posted April 11, 2011 Get hit a lot more, and eventually you won't bruise quite so readily.Maybe OK for most, but may be bad advice for a few. If you bruise more then others, go and see a doctor.
PoppaDLo Posted April 12, 2011 Author Posted April 12, 2011 Took some time and had some blood work done at the doc's to make sure there are no under lying issues. Will know in a few days. Thanks all for the advice too. http://www.unitedfitness247.com/martial_arts.html
PoppaDLo Posted April 12, 2011 Author Posted April 12, 2011 Oh and not to disagree with my first message, I looked back at last medical records and guess that I had NOT had the blood test done for stuff like blood count, platelets and what not so my first post was a little misleading and is now corrected. http://www.unitedfitness247.com/martial_arts.html
