Calluses or (worse) "Rips" anybody? (re-run)

...this has been published ages ago on 'another forum' but the content is all mine, and I hear the topic is still interesting, thus I've gladly 'recycled' it.
[advice: gross, but useful content follows...] :)

Calluses and 'Rips':
...so: you finally had your first Parkour-related torn (hand-)callus yesterday?
Hurts like hell, it's more or less bloody/messy as your average torn toe-blister from running, or hand-blister from tennis/golfing/you-name-it, and you feel like you're… Continue

2009 New Year resolution(s)

..I'll start with one, and write it down to remind myself of it (and invite everybody else to do the same with their PK -or not- related resolutions...), I may add to the list, at some point:

- BE POSITIVE!
The glass IS half-full !!!
It's going to take me some effort, but, also thanks to pk and the community I belong to, I should be able to make it...

I consider myself halfway from the goal...

My year-end training abroad (Italy)

flash back: I banged my left knee pretty bad a month and a half ago and have been recovering slowly, but surely ever since, even if I suffered minor yet painful dings here-and-there, and am probably still about 90%.

fastforward: the day after tomorrow I'll be flying back to the Bay after a two short weeks stay in my motherland (Italy), where I (surprisingly!) managed to train 5 times (/days),… Continue

Anterior knee pain syndrome and "Chondromalacia Patellae"

I was looking forward to my first blog post being something REALLY inspirational, or retrospective, or biographical, but I guess -as ironical as it is, given my screen name- it's going to be about a minor, yet bothering injury; and about it's assessment, treatment and prevention...

Weeeeell, old for me is when you have an personally autographed copy of the bible. :-P

Ahaha, seriously though, most of the folks I meet are in their late teens, early 20's...I'm already in my late 20's! I think I'm still stuck in that "high school seniors are too old to hang out with freshman" stage, but the greatest thing about walls...is jumping over them!
