Merely a fleshwound, you're fine, you can take my word for it.
Are you shitting me? This is the first time ever in your life that you've sprained your ankle? Do you do absolutely ZERO physical activity up until this point? How do you get through this much of your life with only one sprained ankle? I don't understand!
I'm not even joking but I broke my middle finger once during a fight. Both bones in my left forearm doing stupid bike tricks and i hit the edge of a curb. Fucked my knee up playing basketball in high school and had to have surgery on it. I've had stitches in my elbow from hitting the pavement too hard and had to have rocks removed from it. I almost cut my finger off on a table saw and shaved my knuckle to the bone using a disk sander. I guess I was just accident prone or wreck less when I was younger. Luckily the last injury I suffered was a cracked rib and that was about seven or eight years ago when I used to do kickboxing. I've just participated in about every sport I could growing up, BMX and skateboarding were popular in the late 90's early 2000's, and loved to fight....or maybe you're a movement autist and your motor skills suck?

all lies, bronto couldnt fight his way out of a wet paper bag!
hahaha what kind of analogy is that, had me laughing for a straight minute

I bit my tongue in half like a snake and it had to be sewn together, although I did it when I was three. XD
How...what...I guess my tongue mobility is lacking :P
Yesterday, I took a free MMA training to try it out and hurt my ankle, while doing those backward rolls where you extend your feet and stand on your hands mid-roll.Pretty fucking stupid though that they tell first-timers to do shit like that though, there are about a dozen ways to get injured doing such a move for someone who is untrained and uncoördinated.

Never give up man. Bones heal and chicks dig scars."Seriously hurt"? Being a hobbyist kickboxer isn't gonna get get you seriously hurt any more than yoga will.
I'm older now, and have kids, so time to watch them do the sports. The only things I still do are weight lifting, and yoga. I would love to get back into kickboxing but my wife isn't so keen on the idea. I'm 33, my kids are 6 and 3, my wife doesn't want me to get seriously hurt, so I gotta respect her wishes.
Are you shitting me? This is the first time ever in your life that you've sprained your ankle? Do you do absolutely ZERO physical activity up until this point? How do you get through this much of your life with only one sprained ankle? I don't understand!As for this, you won't sprain your ankle if you have fast reflexes and good body control. Bonus points if you don't weigh more than a dinosaur. Every time I've landed on my ankle I've been able to take my weight off it before any damage's been done.
Who cares what you were? Did you tell your wife "honey, I want to time travel back to when I was 20 and do the exact same things" and she said "no, what if you get injured"? Did you know you don't have to compete in kickboxing if you're so scared of getting seriously hurt? And even disregarding that, how many people in WAKO get "seriously hurt"?
Xant I was an amateur fighter mmmmk, not a point sparring dweeb. I did this for about 4 years from 20 to 24. Last time i checked WAKO was full contact. So blow it out your ass mate.
So are you scared of getting hurt or not?
It matters not. What matters is that I did it and you didn't and yet you still judge me from the comfort of your keyboard. Again, blow it out your ass mate. You clearly think you're a superior specimen so enlighten me. What have you done to gain such knowledge of my experience? Are or were you a pro fighter? Have you been punched or kicked repeatedly in full contact sports? Are you a doctor?visitors can't see pics , please register or login
I haven't broken a finger punching someone in the face since high school, maybe we should see if it can happen again 8-)
Dude I'm too old now. Your argument might been relevant when I was young but it's not now. Nice try. This thread was about sprained ankles and you've missed the point. What is your recommendation? I said ice it, elevate it, and rest. What say you Gurgumul?
After reading your response I can't believe I even tried justifying myself and life decisions on the Internet. I must've been pretty drunk. I owe you nothing.visitors can't see pics , please register or login
Edit: golum, I hope at least one post in this thread helped you and your ankle. I learned never to share anything about my life even when asked. Lol. Nerds are gonna nerd.

That's pretty easy to say for someone below 1.7m and 60kg. Furthermore doing lots of sports leads to being in pretty uncontrollable situations like landing on someone's foot after blocking (and thus having to look up) from time to time.I'm pretty sure the sentence wasn't that complicated, and people above 1.7m and 60kg would manage to say it easily enough as well, albeit with practice. I don't know how "uncontrollable situations" have anything to do with anything. You're always in position to shift weight away from your ankle, no matter the circumstances. I'm not sure what having to look up has to do with anything either, us normal people can control our feet without looking at them.

Can confirm. I've been 170+ cm 60+ kg, since 15 years old and never had an sprained ankle due to reflexes. But it also comes down to footwear. If you have a weak ankle and a thick sole you're in trouble, if you want to run in a forest or over rocks. Minimalist shoes might not give you ankle protection, but atleast they make your ankle stronger.If your other leg is in the air, or if you're falling on your ankle really badly, you can always just drop down on the ground in a push up position.
Wouldn't say that there is always a chance to shift weight Xant. When this happened to me, my other leg was still somewhere above the rest of my body, that's just poor coordination on my part, though. All I could do was brace and try to spread the force on impact, which I apparently did quite well, as I can hop around, on the hurt leg, today, without much pain.
Confirmed that Xant is in fact the ultimate keyboard warrior who knows more about the real world than the people actually getting up and about and you know, doing these things. "Every time I've landed on my ankle I've been able to take my weight off it before any damage's been done." Rofl dude, getting up out of you desk chair doesn't count as a "landing" just because you weigh more than a dinosaur. We active people are talking about actual physical activity here; you know things like running around the great outdoors or playing full-contact sports where you will in fact, not have complete control over where your feet are planted 100% of the time, despite what your reddit and 4chan boards will try and tell you.Confirmed for a my old friend. LOL.
xant.Do tell, what troubles your mind?
goddamit.

Which I did you moron, but guess what, the other leg didn't catch up, so I swung like a pendulum and landed on only one of my feet, twisting it in the process, because I don't know, it was actually better than breaking my bones?What? How can you land on one of your feet if you're trying to fall on your hands? Just how uncoordinated are you?
Just how uncoordinated are you?

You're an idiot. I had my hands on the ground, trying to do a handstand from backwards roll, but my speed was too great and I didn't manage to stop my right leg, which came crashing to the ground, whereas my left leg stayed up.= You're uncoordinated which led to your ankle being sprained. Mad cuz bad?

Weird......ankle sprains are listed as the #1 most common sports injury....just not for guys like xant. He's a rare specimen, a true athlete, intellectual superior, and judger of lives that aren't his.

A sprained ankle is a very common injury for teens — athletes and non-athletes alike.
Sprained ankles are a common injury in both athletes and sedentary persons. For every tennis player, runner or aerobics dancer that feels the unexpected and painful roll when they are out exercising, there’s a less active individual whose ankle unexpectedly twists under them while they are going down the steps to retrieve mail from the mailbox, or while walking out to their car.
Many people play sports in some way or another, whether they are playing for fun in their backyard or competitively on a team.

I do fighting sport since I was six years old.
My father's done martial arts for 50 years, so he gave me a choice when I was six.
You won't sprain your ankle if you have fast reflexes and good body control. Bonus points if you don't weigh more than a dinosaur.
I'm above 1.7m and 60kg and manage easily enough, albeit with practice.
Every time I've landed on my ankle I've been able to take my weight off it before any damage's been done, because I am an athletic, well coordinated specimen.
You're uncoordinated which led to your ankle being sprained.
Mad coz bad.
Only time when I hurt my ankle was when I was playing basketball outside. Was dribbling backwards and just when I was to attempt jump shot at same moment I've stepped on a stone behind me (haven't seen that shit when we started playing), lost balance and in attempt not to fall on my back I've landed on one leg with my whole weight. Nothing broken, but ankle was badly bruised. Not sure how would Xant act in such situation, but I'm willing to hear.Ukemi in every direction come as naturally as breathing to me, thanks to Judo since I was six. I would've simply done either a soft or a hard backwards ukemi.
Concrete with chance of stones lying around, and you would roll your back over it? You know, it is better to hurt your legs than mess up your spine. Bones in your legs will heal over time but if you fuck up your spine in the wrong way, it is all over for lifetime. It isn't very well protected, you know. What's worse, severe spine injury can also mean you won't need legs anymore.Then fall on your side. Like so:

And you played basketball on concrete full of massive stones?
= You're uncoordinated which led to your ankle being sprained. Mad cuz bad?
LOL! I do this all the time when I play basketball.You may have some disease affecting your balance if you're falling down all the time. Sounds serious.
