ok what i do when injured ( which is regularly) is swim as much as i can, an hour a day in a pool even just sitting there works wonders.
i also tend to do exercises on the non efected areas ( for you thats your mind),
so if i was you and your serious about getting back in the game then id be doing meditation, wateva type, dosent matter really ( though i prefer ZEN and some jap thing)
Also think of your recovery as being a battle, when you get back in the Dojo the real battle begins, so use some stratagy, think about what youll be concentrating on whaen you get back.
i.e. weeks 1 to 10= back
weeks 11-15= restoring stregnth
weeks 16-20= sparring/ katas.

Also don't feel to restrained by time, you have all the time you need and chances are you'll need every moment.
after that just enjoy your self.

That sounds good. Right now Im battling with Depression as well, so I find myself in bed or watching tv. I really want to get out there and just do something. Alot of walking makes my back sore, but I don't know what else there is to do. Getting scan done on Monday, I know its not going to be better tho 😉

keep your hopes up, don't EVER lose sight of your own capibilities.
just keep telling yaself, " i kick ass!" 😕 " or at least i will.....i think" lol
nah really. self confidence is the conerstone to any activitie, ( expetially free sparing!!!) so you gotta have your heast in it.

If you followed doctors orders then you would have no worries and you would be mostly healed by now.

Well I have been following his orders, except for a couple of occasions. Its just hard going for totally sporty and competing all the time, to sitting on my ass and doing jack all.

doctors orders are mad, sit on your ass and take it easy.

but then wen you go to start training again your cursing your self. 😂

I know, its gay how that happens. Like I get annoyed when I can't train, and then at a hard out training, I'll be swearing my ass off.

Waho, Appointment tomorrow

yeah, i luv a gud sweat.
i strive to, in GoJu-Ryu, leave pools of sweat around my feet after sranding stricks ( in the one spot) thats my claim to fame within the club among other things.

well i havent done any exercise for 8 weeks or so, so i want to get back into traing for the new year but at he same time im dreading it because ill know how much wieght iv'e gained, flexibility ,spped and strength lost.
i might start skipping and swimming properly in the next few day just to try and warm up to the amount of exercise ill be doing in the coming year.

Nicely done, got my results back.
I should be all set to train on the first of April, I know thats a long time away, but at least its healing, and if everything goes to plan, I'll be going to the jnr worlds

yay, iv'e got 5 tornement lined up this year so i might see you next year if al goes as planned, i.e. me winning! 😂

wow good luck for the tournaments. i want to learn a martial art that is practical and like said previously can be actually utilized in a fight.

I can't wai tto get back into it. Over the next couple of months, Im going to ease back into it, its going to be great

tai kwon do, karate, judo, aikido, jujitsu, certain things of kung fu.
all practical and good martial arts that require alot of hard work, some more than others obviously.

all i can say spidergrl is good luck and " eye of the tiger man!" apollo creed, rocky 3

I saw my instructor today, she's not going to the USA open anymore, its really gutted. I told her we should go away over seas together, it would be mad.

yay!, go spidergirl!

can't wait till april

hey, does anyone know when is that martial arts festival in bercy(sp), france......it's covered by eurosport, and i really enjoyed wathcing it. but i don't know when it starts...
