how does the saying go? if you don't understand or are ignorant of some phenomenon, that's a statement about you, not the phenomenon.

« on: June 07, 2016, 01:54:19 pm »- chronic knee stuff when i was fencing a lot
any idea if it was from practice drills (holds etc) or how many lunge-like movements you do when fencing someone? you'd think that wouldn't hold a candle to jump training, regarding knee stress, but daym
i think it was a combination of the very knee-heavy stuff -- lunges obviously but there's a lot of up and down as part of drills, plus a lot of very abrupt stopping and starting -- and just being in puberty. peak fencing for me was ages 14-17.

« on: June 07, 2016, 12:11:13 pm »i'll just jump in to second t0ddday's observation. his torso is bigger, my legs are bigger but if we were both wearing long pants and long sleeves we'd look comparable. fwiw, i've only broken little bones (nose, couple fingers). and my worst traumatic impact injury was bones getting dislocated; they didn't break.
but i've had a lifetime of nagging and acute joint injuries.
Each of LBSS's quads are bigger in circumfrence than my entire torso.
lol. when i was the heaviest i've ever been and doing mostly PL stuff, my quads were just about as big around as my ex-gf's waist (25 vs 26 inches).

haha damn mutumbo, i think you're in. 
your list made me want to do my own:
- six right ankle sprains
- separated shoulder
- SLAP injury (never went to doctor so i'm not gonna say it was a tear...took many months to heal though)
- several broken fingers and toes
- broken nose
- osteoarthritis in big toes and 3+ years of associated muscle pain in my legs, hips, and back as it was developing
- chronic knee stuff when i was fencing a lot
- probably some other stuff that i forget

nothing wrong with it, just seems extreme under the circumstances! courage connotes bravery; the opposite is cowardice. so it comes across like you're being really, really hard on yourself. that's all.

« on: June 06, 2016, 08:51:26 am »Hey. Still here, last two weeks have been hectic at work. Drained me physically and mentally, didn't have courage or mood to workout. At the back of my head i also had the resting thing too, like everyone else in here i am unable to rest myself on demand to heal up sth, i just try to train around it. So forced rest sometimes is a blessing.
Getting back at it today hopefully.
