Busted ankle, again/ Streetfood Tycoon/ Pina/ Yogaglo "Release Sadness"

[starkodama]

On Tuesday when I was doing Insanity (Pure Cardio), about halfway through my ankle started to hurt again. I managed to finish the workout but it hurt for the rest of the day. I iced it in the evening. It hurt a little bit the next morning too, so I decided to take yesterday off from Insanity and just do yoga instead

Oh, so it was a suicide jumper? Where? I was late to work the second time this week.

I can't wait to start doing yoga (FINALLY) to not only get a healthier body but a healthier mind as well.

Apparently there were two jumpers today... one took out the Shonan-Shinjuku line, and the other was a 13-year-old girl who jumped in Gotanda and took out the Yamanote and Saikyo lines. :/ I'm sorry that these people are so sad that they wanna kill themselves, but I wish they'd do it in a place where they wouldn't inconvenience 1000s of people, you know?

Are you still interesting in starting at Lava? :)

I had been thinking about getting an ankle brace, but for some reason I'm reluctant. I'm worried that I might become dependent on it, either physically or mentally. :/ Do you think that could happen?

I had to get an ankle brace and not do some of the jump related workouts and I just did squats with weights as a substitute so I could finish it, LOL.

But aren't all of the Insanity workouts "jump related"?? (Aside from the Recovery days, of course.) D-:

Thanks for the info on p90x!! And actually, I have already downloaded Tapout and we were planning to do it after we finished Insanity. Does Tapout have lots of jumping?

The best thing for my ankles was to adjust one move: the weird jump that's like a squat in the air? (don't remember what he calls it) In my experience that one is the most unforgiving on ankles :/

[starkodama]

Yeah, those jumps (I think they're called Power Jumps?) can be killers, but I think the basic Heismans and 123 Heismans don't really agree with me either. :C

Ouch! Sounds like you should talk to your doctor about Insanity and how it hurts your ankle. You might need to get a brace or adjust the workouts. You don't want to have blown-out joints by the time you're 40 because you're doing something that's injuring them every day.

I hope Pina's vet goes well.

Is Pina a lutino? I read something somewhere about how it's sometimes hard to tell the gender on lutinos. He IS a cutie though! :)

The pet store said he's just a regular parakeet. :)
