Hi all,
I'm a Sports Massage Therapist and just getting back into my martial arts training. I knocked a finger in the last session and decided I really can't take any more risks - I need to save...
Few questions:
Where exactly do you get the pain and swelling?
What sort of pain is it? (dull/sharp/consistent or only comes on during movement).
Do you ice it when it gets aggrevated?
...
I thought he did isometrics and then went on to weight training? I thought he later got into circuit training with weights which helped him rip up along with all the cardio he was doing. But I...
LOL - Andy, am I right in thinking you've probably bought one and don't want to admit you've been ripped off?
Couple of other things to think about/try:
Have a go at doing the push ups resting on your insteps rather than your toes (only if you can do it comfortably) and see if you still get the pain (just...
If you had kids maybe you could have a weak or overstretched transverse abdominus? Could be a never ending number of other things. I'd go see some kind of professional - physio, sports therapist,...
Ah just read the janda sit up article a bit more. I think legs bent works well but would require some skill from the person pulling on the legs to understand that the glutes need working as well as...
Maybe try the janda sit up with legs straight so when your partner pulls up you’re also contracting the gluteal muscles. To reciprocally inhibit the hip flexors (mainly the illiopsoas) you need to...
Cheers! How can I find Ma Yue? I'm a victim of the internet culture and my searching skills are limited to Google...or the yellow pages at a push.
I'd say the best time is either just before to get rid of any excessive tightness before your workout to prevent injury (this would just be a a quick, vigorous massage including some soft tissue...
woo! just found a muay thai and boxing gym!! any more out there?
Hi all,
I've just moved near to Peterborough. Anyone know of any good clubs? Preferably MMA - I did find one (Tap Out Association) but I'm having trouble getting hold of the guy that runs it and I...
Thats partly why I'm interested in it. I don't want any spiritual depth and I'm not interested in the traditional side either (at the moment any way). If I want that I'll look for it elsewhere - at...
They're Welsh...Welsh twats infact. Some of the stuff's pretty funny though - once they had a competition where they we're all sitting on a different branch in a tree and the winner was the first...
Did any of you guys get to have a go at their weapons training? Or improvised weapons training?
"And they corrected me for *not* reaching out to block incoming punches. "
Really? I thought...
I've only read a brief history on it and read about the concepts and training. I've only seen one vid of a three man demo.
Anyone know anything about it or had first hand experience with it?
Good afternoon.
*sips tea*
That is totally 100% how I feel right now!
I'm feeling lazy too! I haven't even read this whole thread because I've got no get-up-and-go at the moment, lol.....urgh!
internet = unlimited porn = good
Out of interest - say I decide to travel the world and train here and there studying different martial arts. I wouldn't have expert knowledge on any one martial art but I would have basic knowledge...
Just out of interest, have you asked how big the class sizes are?
There's a big difference between this:

Personally I'd use it as an 'off' day. Just pig out (but on fairly healthy things if poss).
If you're in reasonable shape already, have one goal at a time - increase muscle mass, or decrease fat....
Don't over do it with your ankle or you'll be back to square one again. I think tendons take 5 - 6 weeks to heal properly - an even then, they're probably not as strong as they were before unless...
