"holy crap i ache!!..."

hey all,
well here's a lil update as to my FWA mischief...

today (after the infamous FWA "warmup" and a round of bumps) we were doing match drills. for those who aren't sure, that's basically a sequence of moves that will normally prime the workers for a rest hold (mat headlock or similar).
first off we started learning the basic moves we'd need, which was an armdrag, hiptoss, shoulderblock and leapfrogging a running opponent.
The drills were fairly fluid and consisted of the following sequence:

lockup -> left side headlock (rest hold)
push off onto the ropes -> shoulderblock (brief rest)
off the ropes(1), jump the lying opponent
off the opposite ropes(2), duck the leapfrog
back off the (1) ropes and take a hiptoss

boy did THAT hurt after a few times :)
last week we were doing mostly mat wrestling so to go in today and come out knowing a fairly good set of basic moves was really cool :)

they're a good bunch of guys and quick to help each other out which is cool and aside from a dude who's having real hassles getting anything down (even simple things like breakfalls :S ) it's all going pretty well!!

now if you'll excuse me i have to go put some ice on my upper arm (he can't get armdrag setups right either ;) ) and have a shower!

not worth going to the docs, i busted a rib once before in a mosh pit and they just said to strap it up for 2 weeks...

i'll see how it goes but i'm aiming to get back next week at the latest, even if i'm just doing mat holds and stuff..

Aw...youe first wrestling injury! They grow so quick :D But on the real, you been to the doctor's? They might give you something for it to heal quicker and they'll probably tell you not to wrestler for 2 weeks :(

thanks mate.. hopefully it'll stop giving me gyp so i can at least do mat work on wednesday.. we'll see.
this sucks. still, to be expected when learning i guess...

Ouch! Anyfwa, get better soon dude.

i'm out injured :P

got what i think is a pretty nicely pulled muscle behind the ribs on my right side, it's MURDER.. (actually, could be a cracked bone as breathing is kinda difficult as well :S ) had to shoot fight with it, so of course everyone made sure to clamp a nice hold on and squeeze like hell :)

fair play, that's how ya win, but DAMN did it hurt :S

I am gonna be the manager of The Undertaker when I hire him in exactly 33.21 seconds so I'll get him on you, then you'll be scared. :P

;-)

well i took my moment but it seems i still find myself unable to cower..

you need a more intimidating character chris ;)

Yee.

*waits*

You can take a moment.

oh ok then...

.. should i start cowering now or can i take a moment to reflect? :)
