FAI (Femoro-acetabular Impingement) & Karate

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

getting better every day

Day 5: I slept relatively well, having gone to bed around 10:30pm, shutting off the ice-pad around 2:30am and otherwise only waking up a couple times before getting up at 5:15am. I had the low-imapct exercise machine on all night. I felt noticeably better at the start of the day and it only got better. I did a few of my exercises while at my desk and used most of my lunch break on a visit to the gym. I spent 20 minutes on the stationary bike and did a few upper-body exercises, since I have been neglecting my workouts in general recently. Then, after work, I did more exercises & stretches at home. I am feeling like I really could put at least half my weight on that leg without any pain or other negative repurcussions. But I am not going to push it…

    HEY
    sounds like you’re trying too soon to get back to normal…instead, take it easy, damn it!
    Hope you’re feeling less pain.
    Tell me when you’re ready to help me load some video onto my web site…

    love, dad
