Soreness - Sparring & Grappling 1stie

As I look on the calendar & see that tonight’s class is on sparring & grappling im thrown into yet another nervousness not like on monday nite (1st class) but like something that I never did before with a sport or activity that im fine in ( just a tad nervous well ok maybe more that a tad more). I have no NO idea what sparring & grappling is all about but I guess I will find out tonight! :)  :(  :|  !!!! Everyone within the school is real nice & I love love the way we have to show respect before beginning & ending of the class & right when u walk into class as well as when u leave class!!! I can’t wait intill I get to the point where I wil be training with a staff!!! Now im buzy most of the week since im in kuk sool won.


But I do have a few questions for any of my fellow readers out there that had experience in Kuk Sool Won. What do I do to get the soreness to go away ? I heard on http://www.martialartsplanet.com/ ( forums( my ID on there is Young Warrior) ) that drinking a chocolate milkshake could help is that true? When you first started what did you do about your soreness & how did you get it to go away? Im open to anything. For like I said my week is now busy

Monday – KSW class
Tuesday – Dance practice
Wed. KSW class that’s somewhat how my week looks like!
Thurday - If not at a bible study i will be at KSW!!!
Friday - NONE
Saturday - NONE
Sunday - NONE

I wonder here i can fit into go to the gym? OR should i wait intill im done being sore from my KSW classes to start going to the gym? or should i go to the gym while im still sore & just do light workouts like just walking on the tradmill not to slow & not to fast. hmmm  i don't know.

  1. Young Warrior,

    To keep my answer brief (as it depends on your level of soreness) I suggest the following:

    Stretch after class to remove built up lactic acid in your muscles. This will remove aches from muscles after training. You are obviously fit and flexible from dancing etc but you will be using different muscle groups for the movements required at Kuk Sool Won.

    If your soreness is bruises etc then you have to play the waiting game. It is called "body conditioning" the more times your body gets hit the more resilient it becomes. Its a bit painful to start with, but you will get tougher the more you do.

    You are right to soak in the bath that will always help.

    If you have more questions please direct them to me. You can contact me via my blog
