Bullet points.I used to run and do mma every day. Those sports brought me life and kept me from depression and low self esteem, but then:>Torn tendon in leg and can't run anymore.>Dislocated shoulder 5 times. Finally got surgery but will never be normal.>Every time I want to do physical activity, my body gives out before my soul does.>Now I have no cardio either and get winded from shit that would have been no problem to me years ago.It's miserable. I hate living in this body the way it is. It ALL happened at 25 and I'm just going to be in pain for the rest of my life all because of one fall and one kick. It's just unfair man. I am 30 now. I never got back on my feet and feel a major part of who I am is missing because I can't run or box anymore. I study Japanese now. Self taught. But it doesn't fill the void. Just fills the time.
>>32340468Can't you jump rope and do calisthenics?
>>32340468You sound based man. Sorry that happened. I'm not a specialist in torn tendons, dislocated shoulders, or any of that. Just wanna say that sounds unfair and I'm sorry, and good luck.
>>32340477>Can't you jump ropeThis I can do.>and do calisthenics?My left leg gives out before the right and I am not certain about pull ups anymore due to the shoulder instability. Pushups also give pain as the right shoulder gets tired/pain before anything else.Really though, its the depression caused by the injuries that really gets me. And any time I do exercises that aren't expressly dedicated to strengthening the damaged parts of my body, it seems like all I am doing is indulging in fantasy because I can't actually do them.>>32340487Thanks.
>>32340497That sucks. Maybe try focusing on the jump rope, learn to do cool tricks with it and push yourself when doing it.
>>32340468You and I are in the same boat. Made me really question God's existence, on the grounds that the one healthy thing I do in my life God takes away.There is no advice just pain
>>32340751>There is no advice just painSo it seems I am afraid. I should consider myself lucky that the fifth time my shoulder fell out, it was at work, so the surgery was workman's comp.
>>32340468ever try bpc-157 or growth hormone?
>>32340468if you have good enough healthcare and dont live in a shitty state you can get a whole hormone blood panel, talking testosterone and growth hormone levels if you are low which you might be you can get it prescribed. would probably make a noticeable difference in your strength and endurance under your circumstances.
