Challenge3's blog

Yes I have. TJ

Thanks, how long till you were back on the mats?

Good luck with your recovery Challenge3. Hope you are locking up again soon!

Yes I’ve had both done a few years back and am careful. No high impact and normally start a match from the kneeling position. Further, no intense BJJ nor full on sub anymore. Just too nervous about someone wrenching my knee!
Good luck and stick with the physio.

Thank you for your response. I appreciate it.

Yes, I had both done two years ago. Back at wrestling now but I am careful with them. Let my opponent know.

Best is to ask your physio how much you can do without hurting yourself. Mine encouraged me to do tons. Not going to lie, it was very painful, but the result is well worth it. The flexibility I got back is well beyond what was expected. If you go light on the physio, your leg flexibility will suffer.

Thanks for the information

I had 1 knee & 1 hip replaced in 2014 & 2017. Both fine now, no pain & am back to wrestling.
No problems, apart from being older!
My advice is - go easy to start with & stop if you get any pain.

Thank you, with the physical therapy and doctor's approval I am back at the gym. 1st five in 8 weeks. Light and easy.

Yes I have had it done in 2018 on waiting list to have other knee done but hasn't stopped me wrestling

Ok, thanks, 6 + weeks from surgery. Started back at the gym, and using a knee pad to lightly get on the floor. No wrestling yet.
Thanks for the information.

Yes. I have had two hips and a knee. I never think about it. I scrap and everything works well. Go get it on!

Thanks guys , restored my confidence

I had 1 done 10 years ago. It’s like I never had a problem now. Do the physical therapy and you will do well
