Thread: calf crank

    calf crank

    I have been wondering what happens if you don't tap to calf crank... if you just deal with the pain What kind of injury could you get?

    For example someone is doing calf crank to me from the truck and I refuse to tap.

    separate the knee and injure at least the ligaments... it can be more vicious than a heel hook

    can crush your calf muscle, resulting in a "crush injury". look it up, it's not good.

    If a guy's got you in a legit calf crank, tap out. Being tough shouldn't be your defense when your just rolling. Having good defense should be your defense.

    A dude went CRAZY 100% on a calf crank when we were supposedly going "light". I hesitated a split second on tapping and he popped my ankle out and severely crushed the calf muscle. I literally could not walk for a couple weeks. Could not roll for atleast 2months. Even now, my ankle has not completely healed. Hope that answers your question.
