I used to fight Aikido but now it is hard to find time for it since I work far (and by far I mean 2h30 each trip). Also, I recently suffered an accident (read, nearly broke my feet) that left me with a permanent damaged tendon on my left feet, rendering me unable to kneel down properly, which rules out the Shi-ko exercises that are paramount on the practice of Aikido.
And yes, I miss it. Every day. Martial Arts is not called 'Art' without a reason and I like to agree with pg that hacking is more closely related to the artistic field than the engineering one.
- pageman 17y agodabbled in Aikido and tried MMA. maybe some serious BJJ soon and try the rubber guard :)
- aarongough 17y agoSorry to hear about the foot. Not being able to train because of an injury is terrible... I damaged the tendons in my knees a while back quite badly, there was a 3 month period where I couldn't walk properly at all. In the end I found that exercising my legs with slowly increasing intensity and taking ice baths after every training session has put them about 90% back to what they were, and they're still getting better!
