Centreline principle is a fundamental concept in combat. With it you can create openings, defence into offence and neutralise your opponent’s attack. Here we use that principle to work combination counterpunching with defence #drillsforskills #boxing #kickboxing #muaythai #mma

The reality of recovery sucks

I’m sorry in advance for being negative but that’s what I’m feeling right now.

I’m struggling with the boredom of it all. You really need to have a good support system is what I’ve learned in all this. That can make the difference between getting better or worse.

I am still doing physiotherapy and all the homework stuff but otherwise my days are long and dull.

I’m just getting this stuff off my chest now because I don’t want to bottle it up. Better in than out, right?

The long road ahead

It’s a Friday night and I’m home scrolling social media. Looking at posts of fights, fighters and gyms I admire.

I know it’s a long way till I can train again but can’t help feeling anxious. I did this surgery so I can teach and train more. I find myself going back and forth thinking how can I accomplish anything being injured. Then I smack myself and remember that I’m not going to be like this forever and that I’ll get better.

It’s so funny how the mind plays tricks on you.

Your reality becomes whatever you believe. So I keep reminding myself that I’ll get better, stronger and to trust in the process.

All signs are good 😃

Just saw my specialist and got ct scans done. He's really happy with the progress and more importantly the locations of the graphs and how it's settling in.

Physiotherapy is ahead of schedule according to him. Im almost at full extension again and he's told me to wean off the crutches which is good cause im down to one crutch now and 'walking ' with relatively no pain.

Have another appointment scheduled in a month and I'm slowly walking again. With a limp but still better than nothing.

Just playing with my new toy ... how many can you do? Since I can't train with my legs I thought I'd give myself a new challenge. I've never used one of these before (can't you tell 😂) #handeyecoordination #boxing #kickboxing #muaythai #mma #coachroldan

Even small progress is progress #rehab #physiotherapy #kneesurgery #aclreconstruction #muaythai #kickboxing #mma #boxing #coachroldan (at Burwood Exercise Prescription and Physiotherapy)
