FAI (Femoro-acetabular Impingement) & Karate

My personal experience with FAI and what you should know about this condition

Pop!

I haven’t written on this blog for quite some time, due to a combination of being very busy (moved twice, sold a house, bought a house, got married, teaching more Karate…) and very little changing with the condition of my hips. But something new happened a couple days ago that I felt like sharing… I was stretching out when I heard my left (fake) hip POP! Yes, it has been a few years since I’ve heard that sound come out of that hip and it felt GOOD. I’ve been getting pops fairly regularly from my right (resurfaced) hip but this was the first on the left side. It popped again last night. It looks like I’m finally getting back to my old range of flexibility.
