How to do something stupid while training

[Deep Sea]

Scott.

I'm glad you are doing fine. Here's to a speedy recovery.


Fred

I just wish a hurricane would come up the coast so I could test my sanchin in the yard .

If you want to really test yourself, Fred, I knew someone who was caught in the tail-end of a hurricaine once on his 29 foot sloop. Maybe he can "show you the ropes" and let you practice Sanchin in the bow pulpit?

And what of doing sanchin under a freezing cold waterfall?

I usually reserve those experiences during failure mode of another kind than karate.

My brother had 4 of the lower abdominal hernias.

Stop beating up on yourself. As I said, family history is a risk factor. You probably would have gotten the hernia anyway; there is no way of knowing.

In any case, it's fixed. Done. All over.

Nobody said it wasn't going to hurt.

I will think healing thoughts for you.
