I use an inversion table also.Take a minute to go the inverted state slowly or it can put an uncomfortable amount of pressure build in your sinuses.I wrap a towel around my ankles since your body weight will be hanging from that area.
Congratulations! When I took & passed my level one test,I threw my back out & had to spend a half hour on my back at the edge of the mat before I could get changed & drive home.
Remember,when you get old,you gain the advantage of additional reach.
You can lean out & whack him on the head with your cane. 🙂Do you have a pool available?wEaring a flotation belt allows you to walk/run in place while floating in the deeper section of the pool.If in injury recovery,you’ll avoid joint stress & burn calories.
Get the Krav DVD’s & do some practice sessions at home when you can.Does your school print a syllabus showing what techniques will be taught for each week?Bring those up from your DVD.
Sparing is important but Mandatory Full contact sparring with full force groin & head strikes should be optional.Today’s concerns over concussion in football spill over into martial arts.
One or two full hits to the groin,even with a cup are enough for me.If this were to occur on a daily basis,the class size for most schools would slowly …dwindle ….to……..nothing.Re: Regarding Chronic Head Injury, Sparring and Krav Maga
I never had 100% punching to the face,even when I sparred later (outside of regular class-time.
BTW
If there is major concern,aren’t there ‘soft’ sparring head gear you could wear during class,after telling your instructor why you brought it?Re: Body falling apart and two weeks to test!
quote CJs Dad:I’m a strong proponent of jumping/skipping rope. Go at your own pace while you acclimate but the faster you go the better work your doing. Sounds easy right? LOL LMK how it works out..
The important thing is to recite the proper mantra as you just rope
………”Firecracker,Firecracker,..Boom,Boom,Boom….”

Re: Carrying a concealed weapon vs. Self Defense
quote Leftie79:What do you think of people carrying a concealed weapon vs. learning self defense such as KM?Why the word “vs” instead of “&”
There way be situations where there is no time to deploy a weapon.
Your self defense training amy allow you to create distance so that you can more readily retreive you weapon if you can’t ‘leave the area’.See Myths about Concealed carry.Myth #5.
