Returned to Kickboxing after injury — the comeback experience

I'd been training Kickboxing for two years when I picked up an injury that kept me out for four months. Coming back was harder mentally than physically. My spinning back kick had regressed and checking leg kicks I'd taken for granted needed rebuilding.

how kicks extend your reach and change fight dynamics was what brought me back to myself — about six weeks into the comeback. shin conditioning was a greater factor in the comeback phase than it had been before injury. I'm now back to pre-injury level and training smarter. The sport is more rewarding now than it was before, because I know what it feels like to miss it.
