For those that play basketball and box

[wordisbond]

How often do you deal with ball injuries that affect your boxing training? Right now I'm dealing with a sprained left pinkie from ball and it's affecting my bag training. Lately I've been taking it real easy when throwing left hooks. And if it's not a sprained finger, it's ankle issues from old sprains. Anybody in the same boat?

Use the other hand then. Ambidexterity.

Yeah I hear you. I've had problems with my ankles, really got to take the time to focus on strengthening them with a wobble board and relevant exercises. No sport is more fun than basketball in my opinion so I ain't stopping!

Basketball was my first love man. ever since i started boxing my trainer pretty much banned me from ballin...lol... you twist a ankel or sprain or even break a finger and youre done.....

but like lefty said, basketball is the funnest sport so i sneak in some play once in a while.....its good excersise...im not stoping..fuck that
