health is everything.... all the money in the world can't save you if you ignore your health.... whether it's physical, mental, or spiritual. This is a reminder to take care of yourself. I almost fractured my foot last week and this past week has made me realize just how quickly everything can change if you're unable to do things. got to take care of your health in order to be there for other people

Nigga had a near death experience from an ankle sprain

i'm usually a pretty careful person. I've never broken a bone so being unable to walk has kind of changed my perspective

OP would've had an existential crisis if he caught a nasty crossover in some pick-up

2026 gimmick account

Picking himself off the ground thinking “I really need to start appreciating life”

is being real as f*** a gimmick now?

No I don't think I will

Like a sprained ankle boy I ain’t nothing to play wit

MORE LIFE CROOOoooOOODIEE

I’ll just say OP even if people are clowning you (it is a little funny) things can change if you don’t properly take care of yourself. I ruptured my Achilles playing basketball about 5 years ago and ever since then I always stretch before an activity and more appreciative of daily mobility

Facts. it makes you so much more appreciative. You start realizing how people treat you / would treat you if you couldn't do the things you did before like go out n s***. People will forget about you quick!

Gonna have PTSD just from driving pass a basketball court.

Yeah, same goes for mental health too. I may be developing alzheimer's at a young age. My brain is injured from d**** and alcohol abuse.

I tore 3 ligaments in my ankle hooping in 2016, couldn’t walk for a month, and wanted to end it all by day 2

the funny thing is people usually have this wake up call from a lifestyle related health scare not an accident

i can take care of my health as much as i can the risk of a broken bone will always be there

bruh...achilles tendinitis in 2021.

felt so depressed watching a 60 year old woman do "seated cardio" on youtube cause i couldnt figure out how to exercise during recovery

injury related depression is very real but thankfully temporary

@SplezMcLongstroke welcome back

Op is right

Man I’m dealing w s*** in my Achilles rn when I hoop too, been sore every time I’m done playing these days

Hey man. Im trying. I need to work out more. Im seeing a therapist. I am far from a finished product but s*** im trying

i'll share info i paid a physiotherapist for lmao

do calf lowers. not one leg at a time, both. to avoid overload.
raise them at normal speed, lower them slowly.

one set with knees locked, one set with knees a bit bent. it feels good too

now i can do explosive jumps and all that with no issue. took a month or so of those exercises daily and also standard achiles stretches
