Is that a bad attitude to have or a good one because its also pushing your body to the limit? Like, I have feet problems when jogging bottom of my feet start to hurt and I continue to jog still, and sometimes my left calve muscle starts to get in pain but I still continue to jog.

pain is the single most important message ur body sends u. the never quit 'tude is great but for me its all about perspective. i know my body better than ne1 and if something's wrong the last thing i want is to cause permanent damage. theres pain i soldier through and pain that makes me stop, i'm not proud to the point of idiocy

oh, and that foot pain is prolly caused by improper arch support

pain's just a part of the game. if you ever go into a fight injury free, you didn't train hard enough.

If its normal pain like say from lactic acid build up or other general soreness then that is one thing and just part of training hard.

But if you got some joint pain or something that doesnt seem normal, then stop until you can figure out what is going on. Its stupid to keep going if you are seriously hurt.

Congratulation. That is the most retarded thing i read today.

***** please, keep the internet tough guy **** for your online buddies. I train and spar harder than you ever will you little keyboard warrior.

Saying that if you don't injure yourself training means that you don't train hard enough is the most moronic thing i ever heard on this forum.

Injuries happen yes, you shouldn't let injuries stop you, yes. But thinking that injuring yourself means you have been training hard is ****ing stupid.

If you injure yourself it's either bad luck or it means you don't know how to train properly. The latter probably describing you best.

I'm talking about getting hurt here, no being sore. If you think being sore is an injurie you're a *****.

wtf getting injured doesnt neccessarily mean you trained hard, if anythign it usually means you have done something wrong in training

the shoes you are running in are probably not right for you.

having the right running shoes makes a HUGE difference in comfort.

most people go to their local running store (Road Runner Sports, Fleet Feet, etc.) [NOT footlocker, payless]), to get their foot type/gait analyzed by the salesman. usually they have you jog/run on a treadmill, with a camera to film the way your feet land. they can also have you walk on this pressure sensitive test pad that analyzes how much pressure is being put onto certain parts of your foot. next, they grab a few different brands of a specific type of running shoe, to have you try it on. this test process is usually 100% free.

mate last thing you want to do is end up with a serious injury. try givin it a rest for a couple days an then hook back in. if it gets worse see a doctor. your better off showing a little patience then ending up with something that could possibly put u out of action for a longtime. also if your calf muscle is hurting, try doing some stretches if u havent already, usually helps me.

Man, the last thing you wanna do when you have a bad injury is trying to tough it out, it's only going to make it worse, seriously the same thing happened to me, i had a slight hamstring strain, but i thought naah thats nothing ill carry on, i ended on tearing it, and have been out for three months now, all because i had that 'never quit attitude', sometimes its good thing to quit, espeically as its only training.

I think its a matter of IQ here. You can keep going with a broken rib, that is a matter of will. But if at anytime you feel somthing pop that is not a bone in your gut area its hospital time not pride time. There is nothing wrong with throwing in the towel if you need to. If you are constantly pushing yourself through injuries you either need to work on your defencive skills or maybe lower the standard for what you think an injury is.

it depends on the injury. broken nose - not worth more bone spreading. sore shoulder? work through it and you'll perform better the next day than you ever have. i worked 6 days a week for so ****in long that taking weeks off makes me twice as good. it never hurts to say "**** it" and get a little fat for a week.
