Life after a full recovery

Edit Post

I'm new to this
I'm looking for some questions being answered by ppl who has had LL

What is a full recovery ??

Can you return to normal life

Sports? I do full contact sports
Boxing , Mma , football

Are all these possible after LL
Say like 4-5cm
Is it more likely to make a full recovery

What are ppl experiences with this and how long would it take for a full recovery

Hope you all can help

I've looked at dr Jamal
Any feed back there ?
Dr Guichet cost just seem abit to out of reach at the moment

Plus at maybe 4 cm I was hoping for less complications and 100% recovery

Thanks for the help

You can do sports some days but never like before.


Ok that's something to take in
Brutal honesty ! That's what I'm looking for

No ifs or buts or 90%

I compete and sport is a huge part of my life
If performance was seriously affected that would be a big downer on it
Or I was to pick up lot of leg injuries down the line

Thanks

Some people complain of knee-pain. Others have difficulty with regaining full athletic performance. While other have lost their sex drive after returning home (me). I have lost interest in women completely and haven't watch porno for 1 year. So I wonder if that is normal.

As for MMA... if anyone is interested, I can make a mini-video of me, a 5'6 office clerk, doing MMA this weekend. I may not be as agile and explosive as Sweden, but keep in mind that I'm never an athlete to begin with. And all of my MMA experience coming from watching movies and UFC. Let me know if you're interested. Thanks.


Post you video
That would be good to watch

It's interesting to know what you've posted
The lost of sex drive ......has other ppl suffered with this ?

Thanks

Quote from: Wannabegiant on January 29, 2014, 02:20:07 PMThere is no concrete proof that full recovery is impossible. One has to consider that the movement and functionality of a longer leg will always be different from a smaller one, so if you cannot move exactly the same way like you could while shorter, then that doesnt necessarily indicate that you are worse now, it might just feel different.

Yea true
Things like
Muscle tares in training due to an already stretched muscle
And can your legs cope with impacts and things like explosive movements
There my worries

Obviously things will feel different and have to adjust

I'd like to hear from ppl who have had LL
And have returned to sports successfully

Thanks

Quote from: Smallguy on January 30, 2014, 04:57:18 AMYou should definitely take Sweden's comment seriously. He is probably the only true athlete who has done LL on this forum.

I'm more of a gym hobbyist than an athlete. Before LL I was a couch potato. The only sport I watch is MMA/Boxing, so I will be showing you my MMA this weekend (I work full-time during weekdays). I will try my best to perform and not disappoint!

When you are taller, you definitely have more advantages in fights. It's a lot easier attacking downward than upward. However, if the guy launch at your legs, you will have a hard-time maintaining your balance. But if any guys want to pick on me now, I don't mind standing my ground.

Regarding your question about sex drive, I have lost it. Before LL, I always go out on dates, but now I don't. So that's the only difference. I haven't felt any pain anywhere in the body since the frames were removed last summer. So the issues varies between individuals.

So the video will be made this weekend, stay tune!

When you say things like like maintaining your balance
I don't understand why ?
Is that to do with muscle strength or just getting used to the extra height

If I train in a pair of Nike airs
Or where boots my balance is fine
I would only look to lengthen this amount you see

It  will be good to here more from Sweden what sort of training he does how things have been effected if possible

What is the best way forward frames or internal
I've heard of knees problems with internal ?


I'm not an expert but in training I have a lot of knowledge

With your sex drive
Maybe your body is still recovering plus with the Mma your doing and maybe more it could be pushing your body hard and mentally
Almost like over training affect
Which will affect sex drive

Try plenty of protein in your diet and enough carbs also try a natural test producer might kick you into gear  anabol 19 USN is quite good

Hope it helps
