FAI (Femoro-acetabular Impingement) & Karate

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

8 months post-op and barely any limitations remain

My flexibility is still a little limited. But not much. Otherwise, I am doing great.  A few weeks ago, we had our annual charity kick-a-thon events. I did over 2300 kicks on evening and a total of 6064 kicks during the week (not counting the ones in the classes themselves – just counting the kick-a-thon events) along with 2014 punches. No problem. Next year’s event is going to have to be more challenging… 😉

    My right hip replacement has been put off for several months. This is a great blog & I will be back.

    I just had my right hip replaced one week ago today. I am already walking with a cane. It still hurts a lot but I’m getting stronger by the day. I’ll try to check back in later.

    Sounds good. You will likely continue to experience improvements each and every day for the next few weeks. Good luck!
