The hype about him defying modern medicine is cap tho. I just tore my Achilles last year and my doc said with the new procedures (non invasive, minimal scar as opposed to invasive, large scar), if you wanted to you could walk directly out of surgery. It’s a torn Achilles, not a broken leg. You supposed to be able to ‘walk’. it’s running, jumping, explosiveness that’s the hurdle
Ang general rule of thumb if you limping you shouldn’t be walking. You’re changing your gait you’re gonna fukk some other shyt up. It’s best to go easy. I took my time, did my PT, and my shyt ws back to normal quickly
On the flip had a friend who tore his and was trying to go Superman, probably wasn’t listening to doctors, got infected, and he’s limping 6 months later.
