Finally registered lol

I am Royal, but usually I'm just called something different in like almost every forum I used to go too so.. I wanted to choose something that was one word.  Ok, so I think I've been lurking around here and just reading stuff here since this summer. I didn't feel like making an account, but I think I'm going to start trying to train. I think I've known about this forum since around last year I think, but I didn't really see anything to talk about. Let's see.. what can I say about myself?

I'm ~5"7, give or take and 14. I got into this so called "vert training stuff" last summer when I had a crazy ass goal of dunking on a 9'5 rim at least by 8th grade,but I think I got tired and stopped training. So after a year of being lazy and letting puberty just give me natural boosts without even do anything, I start to think of vertical training and I'm confused at what program/routine I should do. Then right after track season, I jumped off some ledge and landed badly on the my ankle and it basically just killed any plans I had. My doctor didn't say if it was a sprain or if I just rolled it.. either way I couldn't walk until like 2 weeks later and with painkillers. Still hasn't completely healed, but anyways.. yeah.

I think that's good enough for an introduction, right? Don't know how active I'll be on these forums with school and all, but I might pop in from time to time.

welcome man.. yup good intro.. all ankle rolls are some kind of sprain (ligament)/strain(muscular).

for when you heal up, do you have access to a weight room etc? (i imagine you do)

peace

Hmmm.. weight room. Well, I used to have access to one at least. ATM I don't really have any equipment since my gym membership sort of just expired since I never used it.

I don't think my ankle's ready for any weightlifting that involves squatting/deadlife, but I can do basicly everything else except for doing at lot of turning or weight-shifting on it without it hurting.

Ankle Injury Sufferers of the World Unite!

Make sure you rehab that shit loooooong after it feels "better," dude. Keep doing calf raises, keep stretching, keep doing balancing exercises and strengthening your feet. Even if it feels strong again, I assure you, it is not.

Do not replicate my mistakes of the past 7 years.
