Smashed my knee- what can I train to stay in the game?

[ngarauru]

Hey brosefs,

I have a little story and a question

We start rounds from standing, I look to close distance with partner and he jumps guard, the timing is off and I hear a loud crunch, I kiss my medial ligament goodbye as his weight collapses my knee, the knee pops out and back in again, I resist the urge to cry for mummy as coach approaches, the team gathers and nods knowingly.

Hobble off the mat and go to work for half day, pain, osteo, emergency, crutches.......
I'm yet to get an MRI but the osteo looked worried.......surgery may be looming.......

My question: what can I train to stay in the game that wont jar my booboo?

I wouldn't do much if its that bad. Though once you get back, take a sledgehammer to the knee of that dipshit that pulled that shit in training

Take time off. If you rush it you may never be able to train again. Just take it easy for now. The mats will be there when you get back.
