Advice quick!!!! Injured my ankle

rest ice compress your ankle, keep it wrapped up, as you don't want it to affect your training too much
I'd probably do some regular old upper body bodybuilding boosheet mate, take it easy.

 

This. Ankles take a while to heal. Do you know if it is a simple sprain, or something more severe? I've torn ligaments in my right ankle and it took many months to heal properly and caused considerable pain when trying to do physical things too soon. That, in itself, set my healing timetable back a bit.

Like MrSmall said, work the upper body to keep things toned and your metabolism in check.

 

since you wanted to spar jeff ill give you something that will test your conditioning like the sparring would of

3 min rounds, 30 secs rest

30 secs on handbike/ubl machine, straight away onto 30 secs on recline bike, giving 100% every second

do as many rounds as you would sparring

its a good PHF training method i came up with, it switches from upper to lower body making your heart get a great workout

 

:rofl Oh and yea as mentioned above try doing Rest,Ice,Compression,Elevation. Helps alot

 

Put your foot in both ice and hot baths and write all the letters of the alphabet using your ankle underwater. Seriously, it does work, as stupid as it sounds.

 

You need that thing in my Shed.

 

Or run up to your Chin in Water, the Irish Sea isnt to Far away from you.

 

:rofl

 

Couldnt be Better thanks Jeff. :good

 

I agree with the earlier posts. If there are no actual tears, R.I.C.E. (Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation) is all you need, and maybe some ibuprofen for the pain and swelling.

However, you really won't know the extent of the injury unless you go have a medical doctor examine it, possibly get it scanned (xray and such).

Shame on you for consulting us dumbwits for something medically related. A well respected poster on ESB, such as yourself, should know better.
