I am a teenager and I just came from my taekwondo class. I kicked and I popped my knee. I think it popped out and then back in cause I can walk, but it is swollen and I can’t put all my weight on it. I put ice on it but whenever I try to put more weight on it, I think my entire knee will pop again. I think I am just scared about it. Is there anything else I can do that will make my knee better?
Thanks
my mum and grandma told me it was a boys sport and no girl should ever be doing a mans sport otherwise they will become manly. they think i will have overly large muscles and wont be attractive. my cousin and friend laughed at me when they heard it and my brother said “do what you want”. i feel like i have no support behind me. my friend and i went to our first class last week and it was fantastic. im going again but im paying myself since i dont want my mums money (not that she would offer anyway)
what do u think?
should i quit?
what are the benefits?
i only have one school near me that teaches some form of self defence and thats taekwondo. the man is a 7th dan blackbelt and i went to my first class a few days ago. i was surprised at how hard he worked beginners. towards the end of the class he taught us two self defence moves if we were being attacked from behind (the attacker grabbing you from the neck behind). he showed us two effective moves to escape the situation including what you would do if you were being dragged backwards at the same time. this is the only kind of class like this near me until the city and it is conveniently located as well a s fun to attend, while still building my confidence and strength. is it good for self defence in a real life situation?
thanks
