It's been around 4 weeks since my surgery and good news is I barely gained any weight even though I only minimally watched what I eat. (Well my mother is denying me my cravings. Sad.) I just lost lots of muscle, especially in my injured left leg, but I've been doing some exercises for my right leg instead and I actually think my right thigh muscles have become stronger and bigger? Once I transistioned from cast to vecoped 2 weeks ago I started with 2-3 sets of 15 squats on just my good leg (going as low as knee height) and slowly increased the load. I'm now doing 4 sets of 25 squats and then 1-2 sets of 5-15 calf raises (doing them after squats when my leg gets shaky from exhaustion is super hard so I can't do many yet.) I'm also doing some light exercises on my left leg that don't put strain on my ankle but they're not too effective. I find that even when I exercise my left leg, my right one ends up working more because there's virtually no muscle left in my injured leg and my body is trying to compensate. And my knee actually hurts when I lock it because the muscles around it are gone so I am not sure if I should do any exercises at this point. I looked up light knee stabilizing exercises without weight on knees but they're not very effective either. Sighh I should probably wait till I start physical therapy but seeing my dead left leg drives me mad! It's half the size of my right leg I'm also doing some ab/core/arm/shoulder/back exercises and am currently sore all over my body (even in my upper left thighs/glutes) which is making me super happy. It's been a while The sad part is I haven’t been able to figure out good leg stretches that don’t hurt my left ankle (and don’t put any strain on it.) My muscles are currently super tight

Not sure who that guy is but Gabby’s Lutz is bigger woah eta: And Conrad Orzel... He doesn’t actually train at TCC does he?

You have no idea how lucky we are that Yuzu seems to be letting people put his face on instagram deliberately these days

I'm pretty sure that's from the off season (it's still funny tho lol) eta: the 2017 off season I mean

I feel like eveything has been mentioned already. Maybe I'd also add Kolyada winning that gold at CoC and finally landing that 4Lz! Throughout the season I was especially happy to have seen both Wakaba and Kaori live at CoR. I liked both of them before already but watching them skate really sealed the deal for me. Up until watching Kaori skate at the practices I wasn't aware of just how fast she skates and I got to love her flow on the ice even more. So seeing Kaori rise this season, getting silver at SA, being chosen to be on the Olys team and winning 4CC made me beyond happy. Just as happy as seeing Wakaba with her Worlds medal. I'm glad they both ended up with a successful season of their own. So proud of my girls

Aww sounds like a cute euphemism for “person who sells out newspapers within 5 mins if we put his face on it”

Invasion of the crossovers?? And Yuzu’s back to introduce actual transitions to men’s figure skating!!!! lol

I‘d totally be behind this version of the movie I‘m ready to sob at the ending (but I’d understand because humankind doesn’t deserve him and he deserves to go back to his planet and find peace.)

It's enough if they can do a 1A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TfAzhrUyrA

But it still won't be Yuzu eta: I guess what I could accept is a documentary type of movie where they use actual competition footage and if they absolutely have to reenact scenes off-ice they can use an actor.

I'm already annoyed thinking about it. Either it will be a disrespectfully cheap production and flop or it will get popular and everyone around me will ask me about the movie and I'll have to rant about how inaccurate and annoying the movie is everytime while the ones asking will tell me to chill but how do you chill when it's about Yuzu? Hmm what I am also worried about is what if the actor can't skate?? Even if they can, no one can imitate his skating

if it has to be done, it better be a Japanese production 100%

I doubt any genre of media could capure his life tbh! I've been told Yuzu has a slight Miyagi accent that was stronger in his younger days (but I can't tell cuz I don't speak Japanese lol)

I don't know if I'd be able to watch that movie but I think it's inevitable, someone is going to make that movie someday in the future

But Javi is not completely retiring. He says he will do B comps and Euros

No, he’s dating a nurse. No one knows the reason they broke up and that‘s his personal life so we probably don’t need to know.

Thank you! And sorry about that, we don't have alot of donation methods

Thank youuuu, I saw it

Oh you're right! In the beginning it was clear what the donations were for so I didn't think about it. And yes, we are accepting donations for the maintenance of our forum. If you're interested in how we've used the money so far we also have financial reports here (I can PM you the pw) Well, Euros are favored but USD works too
