yeah, i would but my physio person never got back to me.

They called me when i was at work and told me to call them back, so i tried but it was number witheld. GREAT! Plus my last appointment to get the results of my MRI got changed, then cancelled about an hour before the appointment.

I have quit tricking for like 3 months already haha, or longer, with like 1 session a month or something really. I am with you here andy.

I am just doing my bodybuilding training trying to get muss for summer when I will return to tricks!.

Strength training (and muss) is my main goal this winter (like usual). I'll pick up tricking seriously again when the weather stops sucking ass, but for now I'll try to have a session at least once every 2 weeks.

Winter sucks for tricking.

I've stopped seriously tricking in october. I'm just throwing kicks here and there like once a week.


I really want to get my pop7 back as well as my c9, though.

im hoping though that i can just use this winter to forget bad habits and when the weather gets better (lol) i can just start fresh learning new stuff rather than drilling old (bad) habits.

im diversifying and ambidexter....ising my tricks. I seem to pick up tricks on my bad side pretty quickly, thank god.

I haven't got a gym either, so I had to stop tricking in October and can't start again until ~ March-April. Sweden ftw... ._.

Luckily here the weather in winter is quite ok, no snow, but there is rain... but its trickable sometimes. And i think ive found a gym here a few mins away from my house, can't wait to go thereXD

I still trick 3 times a week usually, but I have a gym less than 500 yards from my house...

Yea winter does make you wanna quit tricking for a while haha. Just yesterday, it was 16 Fahrenheit here in NJ.

I haven't tricked for the past...month and a half i think? Either way, Winter sucks.

My original plan for winter was to focus on muay thai and weight training, while tricking at the gym once a week or less.

So far I've mostly been doing weights (twice a week or less) and working on school projects. I tricked twice since November and went to muay thai maybe 3 times.
