[quote=Whiskey Business] That is pretty weird. It's like your ankle selects what kind of sports it wants to do haha. My ankle used to act up like that a couple months after the fracture healed. I'd do 3-4 miles of roadwork in the morning, then hit the gym after class for four rounds each of sparring, heavybag, mittwork, rope skip and shadowboxing. My ankle? fine. But when I went for a pick up game of bball, I'm limp walking like a pimp with a leg cramp 10 minutes in. So weird. What belt did you get up to? My cousin was a little badass Tae Kwon Doe master, but he often took it a little too seriously. When he was active, he regularly took intense studio photos where he'd do really high jump kicks and other various moves. I distinctly remember one where he broke a board with a straight kick, and he was looking straight into the camera with murderous eyes. To this day I make fun of him for it and he refuses to show me these pictures that have suddenly "disappeared" [/quote] Yeah. My ankle is actually aware of what is going on and hurts itself when it doesn't want to do things. Emo ankle. I'm a black belt. I don't like those flashy kicks, and I mostly rely on those spinning kicks in sparring/competition. My style of TKD is more suited for competition, so no tornado kicks or high jump kicks.
