I plan on doing Krav Maga sometime after LL. Maybe a year or two after. Do you think I'll be able to?
It's not a big deal but just something I might want to try.
I think that after some months you'll be fine to do any sport, martial arts too: human body is a perfect machine.
But I know that Krav Maga is hard to learn: don't you prefer Judo or Aikido to start?

In a good case scenario, I guess I should be able to do it after LL.
No, I want a pure, lethal self-defense art. Krav Maga seems to be the best. I'm only worried about the training facility in my city not being upto mark, and I don't trust "Krav Maga Online Courses".

Don't worry... After a fracture the bones become stronger than before, it's well known ;-)
Yeah I've been wondering this myself actually, will I be physically helpless after ll, unable to compete with a normal healthy adult?
Your bones will be as strong as ever but your muscles will be weakened as far as I understand, so it should be tough I'm afraid.
It's simple when you think about it, your muscles will have to move a larger leg than they were meant to. Sort of like swinging a bigger stick is harder than swinging a smaller one.

Yes but wouldn't the muscles also stretch along with the bone, so long as the lengthening process isn't too rapid or too extreme in length? At the same time wouldn't you just be able to work on strengthening those muscles to adjust to the new bone, which if recovered properly, would have already been well healed? I'm just sort of curious about this is all.
I found that my muscles did grow in response to the lengthening, but they didn't grow quite enough. It's like they hit their growth capacity.
I'm a naturally skinny guy who has trouble putting on much muscle, so maybe there's a chance you endomorphs/mesomorphs might not experience this.

Yes to an extent perhaps, but remember that the muscle cells will only increase in size not in numbers. Your strength might increase but your muscles will always be too small for your skeleton, a taller man would have longer muscles to match the longer bone.
If you lengthen too far beyond your natural state there will be no complete recovery more or less by definition.
I'm looking to get back into combat sambo. Did a lot of it in high school along with judo and wrestling. I think I'll be able to get back into it in due time, although it's going to be a lot more difficult to have a solid takedown defense than before due to the higher center of gravity and less explosiveness.
