I tore off most of my asshole the other day shaving my balls. My bottom game is suffering, but my top is sure to improve.
Also, this just in, a fortune cookie monster i just read: "You will be unusually successful in an entertainment career". "unusually successful," wonder what that says about me.
Now back on task, what were we talking about? Oh yes, injuries.
So i turned 32 in January, and shit is fuckin up left and right. Bout 1.5 yrs ago, i tore my ACL & meniscus in my right knee, had the surgery, now i do pretty well. Although, the reminder is always there, have to be careful of how my knee gets tweaked rolling. Know how sometimes you'll be in a scramble, end up in mount, but one of your legs or feet is kinda stuck under the guy...i gotta bail on that shit quick. Little things like that.
Also another little gift from the lord of hosts, I have allergies now. Really? Allergies? At 30 I develop allergies? What a faggot. I mean the shit got so bad that i was hyperventilating cause i couldnt get enough air in and my whole face would go numb like a stroker. Scary shit. I have to get a shot in each arm now once a week for a year and a half...and wear breathe right strips...and take allergy medicine. This makes me a gay fag and i'm not happy about it. Also, has destroyed my cardio, i suffer like hell at every tourney i enter now, its tough. Gettin better, but still plagues the hell outta me.
Its always something Johnny 5, and you ain’t alone!
I've been getting injured since my 5th day of training from head to toe. My coach says "welcome to the sport." =D Injuries are part of the game, but that won't keep any of us away will it. I find that a solid warm up and stretch, in that order, really helps prevent injury in multiple ways.
I hear ya brotha! Coach used to say if he had to bet on anyone walking out of class with an injury on any given night he'd put his money on me. Between regular ol' jiu jitsu injuries (ribs twice, knee, more back pain than is reasonable at my age, etc) and the direct and indirect problems caused by my Crohn's it's a wonder I've progressed at all with my jitz. Consistency is the name of the game and if you could describe me in one word it would INconsistent. It sucks. I've put in a shit-ton of mental reps though! For two months I was on a 15lb lifting restriction which included an Eddie seminar (dammit!) and all I could do was mental reps. Better than nothing but man, three straights months of health on the mats would be awesome... :)Quote:

Tore my groin muscle getting an old school sweep in a tourny, I couldn't finish the match had wimp out. I was out for a month and still have tightness in the crotchel region lol.
fucked up my knee pushing a car in the cold and I had to have surgery and was out for a year it sucked my knee still clicks and the pains probably gonna be there for the rest of my life but I can train at 100% so it's not the end of the world. feel better dude it happens to the best of us.
I think the anatomically correct term is the "crotchular region" or the crotchimus maximus...or for some crotchimus minimus. Mike, you actually got me a little skurred. I'm going to make the assumption that all purple belts in the system can do a full on, knees down to the floor, head touching feet or floor butterfly stretch and you STILL pulled your groin? I've pulled other muscles, never the groin, and I'm just imagining it's pretty up there in the pain department.Quote:

and dude remember whatever happens you can always bounce back and push through.
when I got my knee scoped, the doctor said I had plica syndrome and had never seen that much plica buildup and damage in his entire life (and he was a sports medicine doctor and was like 65 years old). he basically told me it would never get better, but I'm back to performing at 100%, and only after 1 year. Remember man the human mind can overcome anything.
