What freestyle injuries have you had?

[Adi]

Let's see what the most frequent freestyle injuries are.

As the moves get crazier and crazier, I think serious injuries might become a big part of freestyle.

i answered "hip" - had it this august - it was quite painful
for about 3 weeks was very limited in practicing

i often hear guys complain about injuries which don't exist (groin, lower back - everybody gets those pains which come and go)
if you are a pathetic piece of shit plz do not invent injuries as an excuse for poor improvement - just practice more

I've really bad Hip injury, i was barely able to play for 2 months this year
I also got really sore knees, but i think its normal for freestyle
i also use to get bad neck when i train uppers a lot
and occasionally i roll my ankle which isn't great

i knew a guy who trained hmatw and htatw all the time, which causes him to get groin injuries, i think its possible

Fuck, I just realised I've had so many injuries that I almost ticked all of them.

LOL, I'm thinking that could be the case for lots of freestylers.  It's tons of un-natural movement.  I'm surprised more of you don't twist your knees and tear ACLs or cartilage.

supertired is a injured?

When I started freestyle I already had a metal plate and 8 screws in my right knee, and 4 screws in my left knee. Fs occasionally causes intense pain to the point where I can't even walk.
I also have 4 hemmorages in my eye (I got sucker punched by an angry fan) so I'm completely blind in my right eye, I opened one of the hemmorages doing uppers a few days ago.
I think the worst injury i've gotten just from freestyle is a bruise on my thigh from stepping on the ball

[BigMac]

Can you put calf on there because this calf strain has ruined the last year of freestyle for me.

[Adi]

Added calf.

Tupac, wtf happened when you got punched? They catch the guy? If you're blind in your eye from it, that's a serious offense.

What's the issue with your knees?

And dang, how are there so many hip injuries? Those are serious and dangerous.

I tried breaking up a fight between this huge mexican guy and one of my performers (bronson.) I pushed them apart, and then I looked at bronson, and when I turned to look at the other guy he decked me in the face (he was really drunk,) bronson tackled the guy and held him down till the police got there. I think they're holding him for assault and battery on a minor (im a minor) and  I have to appear in court december 17th to testify against him or something like that? I'm not really too sure whats going on, all I know is my lawyer said he's gonna be in prison for a long time, cause of the hemmorages in my eye I can't train uppers for at least 6 months :p

The plate/screws in my knee all came from when I used to skate, I have surgery scheduled over winter break, after physical therapy I can train lowers really hard again without pain :D So i'm reallly looking forward to that :D
