I’ve been thinking about how people just train injured. I’m sitting here with a bag of frozen peas on my ankle, and remembering I have instructors that have had entire hips and knees replaced and still shown up the same. They really don’t get enough credit for that. What I’m training with isn’t even remotely close to some of those cases, and it still makes training that much more difficult. Anyways, shoutout to them, and I hope you all are having good days, goodnight!
