I'm back in the kick only lane. Leading up to Zones my right shoulder was a little "twitchy" so I decided I'd take it easy awhile,swim with fins alot,fist swim,things to decrease the strain. My family wanted to go snowboarding so I drove them to the mountain.I was concerned about my shoulder so I planned to just watch and enjoy the scenery.While walking in the snow I slipped,fell to the right and jammed my shoulder catching myself. Now it's painful to raise my arm over my shoulder and I am kicking only,at least until my doctors appointment next week. One thing this proves is that poor technique IS the cause of most shoulder problems as my wife (the Martial Artist)noted that if I had remembered to fall with good technique I wouldn't have been hurt(but she really was very sympathetic.)

Ah, my gymnasts friends were the biggest clutzes I know ... I actually hurt myself more walking to and around equipment then when I was on it ... a sprained ankle walking to beam comes to mind
I was juggling a football (soccer ball to the unenlightened) with my feet indoors...my wife says "Mind you don't hit the clock!"
"I have too much skill for that!" I cockily retort.
Next touch, ball goes whoosh over my shoulder, knocks the clock of the wall, shattering the glass housing...
...it was a wedding gift...
LOL
