Have had micro-fracture foot issues, so have to run and bike every other day, can’t just run, goal is to keep this up and hopefully my feet survive

why tho? nah, don’t do this to yourself…do what you need to do to get your feet right/healthy then ease back into the activity/running, you’ll likely be much better for it rather than gritting through it unless you are on some definitive timeline

There’s not a timeline, but when the first foot thing happened there was “an incident”, like an event, as in I was running on the treadmill at Lifetime and all of sudden something wasn’t right with my left foot. The top bones.

I was running every day at that point.

So I’m just trying to manage it now as taking off days running. I want to know if you think that, with more context, is not smart. I just want to stay healthy to continue a daily regimen.

i’m not any kind of medical professional or trainer but it sounds like it might be an overuse ting if you were running everyday…

if you really have to ‘manage’ this thing you are prolly better off actually stopping activity involving that foot & figuring out what good with it such that you aren’t doing further damage, you can use this as an opportunity to do/find other things for your daily routine

The event. As it were. because I remember happened Nov 2018, and I’ve been toeing the precipice ever since. I know in my mind, the limit. It’s the best thing to know as someone that has been there/injured. Know the signs.

what was this ‘event’ you are cryptically referring to?

things is in compensating, imbalances (we’re never totally balanced as it were anyways but working around an injury for too long definitely isn’t ideal) start cause other unnecessary stresses…hopefully you figure out what you need to fix your issue so that you can get back to being pain free/more comfortable doing the things you want to do

experimenting with forefoot focused squats

I was running on a treadmill at LT and all of a sudden I knew/felt at the conclusion of my normal run, the top of my foot was ****** doctors have told me I have two too many foot bones also, wild

They said I’m more susceptible to foot issues so I’m trying to manage

ahh ok, so are you managing a prior injury or just fact that you are more prone to foot issues?

Ya it’s just managing knowing it is more prone to happen with age, hasn’t happened since 2018. And now knowing I’m more prone.

ok, as you were i guess…have you looked into any methods that might help you strengthen the foot/around the foot?

 

[jpzx]

Just been advised and given print-outs, I’m sure they’d help just haven’t committed.

Here I am this morning shooting around.

The temperature always gets to over 100 degrees here in San Antonio, so I have to shoot around in the morning.

Additionally… my Planet Fitness experience has been great. I love the no judgement theme. As a former superstar athlete, sometimes the littlest judgments of my legitimate mistakes would bring me down. I love doing the machines slowly and quietly, and staying out of the way. I love the humbleness and no judgement vibes of the other members. I love the tv’s, Wi-Fi, and hot showers. As of today, my Planet Fitness journey has been a 5 star experience. I would recommend Planet Fitness to anyone looking for a calm environment that will give them an opportunity to better themselves.

A week until competition. Best case scenario I get a medal with no one in my division or beating up a middle aged father of 3. No one needs to know how it happened.

Been training almost everyday, sometimes twice a day the last 2 months. Drinking nothing but ensure next week to maintain some healthy weight. I shouldn't have to cut much, training in a hot *** room with the gi on has kept all the weight off. I should sit solid at 225lbs next week.

What belt are you again?

Do you train anything else or just BJJ?

 

[Liquid Swords]

I'm a middle age father of 2.
I know my limits. Rolling/sparring with 20 something year old kids (they're half my age) is exhausting. That bjj workout is great tho

 

[Beruseruku Desu]

brad def insecure about balding though so i can’t even blame him.

 

[deusavertat]

4 stripe white. I was supposed to get a blue belt weeks ago but I already signed up to compete as a white and my coach told me he will hold off.

Just bjj. I might add some muay thai once I get to purple.

I get treated like I'm not an old *** man. Because I don't look as old as I am (38 with 1 good knee and shoulder). Upper belts been going extra hard at me since I started, its getting exhausting. I'm just tryna flow roll always ends up in a dog fight.

 

[Beruseruku Desu]

do yall consider gymnastics a sport? and if yes, then do you consider BB a sport?

both are subjective and the winner is chosen by judges so what makes one a sport and the other not?

 

[ICE CITY CF]

Wait, who doesn't consider gymnastics a sport?

I'd argue that in BB any element of skill is a means to an end, and not the actual end itself.

Unlike fore example weightlifting or power lifting.

 

[deusavertat]

I got the names of the people I'll be fighting. My mind immediately went to dark places.
