So my checkup was not my 6month checkup as previously thought. It was just a consultation for my doctor to check how I am doing and to have a talk about my progress and mobility range.
I am permitted to start light jogging now, this will slowly increase my knees "stress" resistance. Jogging will put a small amount of jarring stress on my knee....this increase will build the knees natural resistance and cushioning up which will, in turn, benefit my karate training allowing me to slightly increase "mock" kumite and kata speed.
I will be having my 6month scans and testing mid August.
A big thankyou to Naitou-sensei for encouraging me and also for telling me to slow down/back off when needed.
I was also given a new goal which will help with my mental game....Sensei told me to make sure I have remembered the required syllabus upto sandan by winter gasshuku (training camp). Febuary will mark 1year which should see me back to 90% so it will allow me to participate in a grading, of which I thought would be a lower grade. Lots to learn!
