Can't play sport for 3 months. Any advice on fun things I can do instead?

LaHug · May 17, 2012, 07:33:46 PM

I got the news about a week ago that I can't play sport for 3 months (get to do fun rehab stuff instead... yay...) so does anyone have any advice on fun things I could do instead?
Especially for when exams finish and I'll be on holidays.

I've had to have a couple weeks off from footy with a broken arm but getting back into running now which is good, just not marking and full tackling for at least another 2 weeks :(

Certainly is frustrating, I just kicked the footy by myself for a while until I was able to have a kick with friends again so slowly working my way back into it.

That's where an arm is alright though, you can still do a lot of things and still be moving...I've never had a serious knee injury so I can't talk from experience, but I can imagine how frustrating that would be. Can't really suggest anything off the top of my head, sorry :-\

Buy all the FIFA play station games and win 10-0 on the hardest setting of each one :)

Bask in your football team's consistent winning?
Oh wait...
Seriously though, do you watch a lot of tv? Thats what I would do.

Haha, thanks guys! I'm playing Pokemon and watching TV right now so that seems like a good move ;)

I noticed I didn't give much detail. It's a knee so running/kicking is a no-no :(

Just have a big wank and wait for all of this to blow over.

Not good LaHug :(
When I tore my PCL, I was out for the whole soccer season. Thank goodness not the cricket season! I just watched TV, went on the computer. Not much to do really.

Whole season must have sucked! I should be back for the end of my bball season (so I'm hoping we make finals) and, fortunately, I'll only miss aths preseason (although that's still annoying and will hinder my chances of nationals).
