    Plantar Fasciitis/Heel pain

    My DD has a Dr.'s appointment on Friday. Her coach thinks she has plantar faciitis... she definitely has heel pain. Coach says that there's not much to do for it except for stretching and resting, but Kathy has a check-up on Friday anyway, so I'm going to mention it. Kath is TERRIFIED that the...

Some people will have the slightest problem and will whine about it constantly whilst others don't complain at all and have broken this and that etc. there is a few questions i would like to ask why is pain tolerance...

    Push through the pain

    Funny little story. My DH had trained in martial arts for years in our early "honeymoon" years..pre-kids. He recently came across a local MMA gym that would allow him to do the type of training he used to do in order to get back into shape. First night there, he was wiped out. Just not as...

    Parents Do you keep your child home when she is in pain?

    I have kept my daughter for a week and a half because her knee hurts when she is even just walking. She has an orthopedist appt. on Wednesday, and I'm waiting to see what he says before she goes back. I let the gym know, and they haven't questioned me. I just have this worry that they think she...

    Back Pain?

    Yesterday, somehow, I messed up my back. It might have happened on floor, maybe when I flipped to my head on vault (i would think i would hurt my head or neck here, right?), but I noticed it as soon as I went to bars and did a kip. It didn't seem that bad at first but now it hurts really bad...

    wrist pain, mill circle

    Ok so I just started working on mill circles yesterday. And I found my right wrist hurt quite a bit with the undergrip portion of it. Went home, took some NSAIDS, figured it would be better, still hurts quite a bit today. Just wondering if anyone or their DD has experienced pain when first...

    bridge / wrist pain?

    I noticed the other night at dd's practice that she was grabbing /shaking out her wrists after holding herself up in a bridge. Is this normal or is she doing something wrong? Just curious. I don't think she's strong enough yet as she has a hard time holding them for extended periods but...

    Ankle and Knee Pain.

    Lately I've been experiencing some pain in my ankles and knees. It's not extremely painful or anything, but I'm just wondering if anyone has tips on stretches or something similar I can do to build up strength in them again. A few notes: -I'm 15yr/o, level 4, been doing gym for about 2yrs. -I...

    Parents Pain in the arms...what to do??

    My 16 yr old level 8 has recently been experiencing pain in her left forearm, about 6 inches above the inside of the wrist. It hurts most when she vaults and does floor tumbling. Is this similar to "shin splints"? And what can we do about it? Biofreeze helps to a degree but with the season fast...

    Wrist/Ankle pain?

    Hey all, I'm 5'4" and have really small wrists and ankles, so they are always weakening my skills and they always hurt at the end of practice. What's the best way to deal with this? (p.s. I've thought about tiger paws, but I haven't tried them. They seem like they would be hard to tumble in)

    knee pain everytime she does vault

    Everytime my 9 year old practices her level 6 vault, she comes home complaining about knee pain on the left leg. I wonder what she is doing wrong. None of her coaches tell her she is doing something wrong. In addition, the gym she belongs in has no pits and she lands on what her coach has...

My 5 year old L4 has been working out with her dad while we are visiting him and she started complaining about her back hurting.

    Arm pain from backhandspring?

    Yesterday I while doing a backhandspring, I jammed one of my arms into the floor, and it started hurting. It was fine, though; I just iced it and I tried to go on bars, our next rotation, but as soon as I hit the extended part of my glide kip, it hurt like crazy, so my coach told me to stretch...
