Broken Bones and BUD/s?

[CadetKepke87]

Recently I have broken a small bone in my wrist and am wondering if this could lower my chances of being accepted into BUD/s

[CaptRonaldSpeirs]

I doubt it. Just make sure the bone heals fully so you dont reinjure it. I say i doubt it because if your wrist is healed i dont see any reason that you couldnt pass the physical test to enter bud/s. Thats all i got to say.

The only easy day was yesterday.

This won't answer your question but its some interesting tibit on a test done to US Navy SEALs who suffer from arthritus. My aunt has Osteoarthritis and I try to read and learn about it as much as possible. So I was doing some research on that when I came across this article where surprisingly it also had a small mentioned about SEALs. Its was only about a paragraphed or so long about the US Navy doing a recent study on 34 Navy SEALs who have arthritis. The part pertaining to the SEAL test is below:

"Synergy of glucosamine + chondroitin: a one-two punch for arthritis relief

Given the fact that glucosamine is essential for creating the proteins that make up cartilage, while chondroitin attracts fluid to these tissues, experts have speculated that taking the two supplements together would produce even more dramatic results. Until recently, there were no studies to back up the theory, but now there are.

The synergistic effects of glucosamine and chondroitin, when taken together, were demonstrated in a recent U.S. Navy study involving 34 Navy Seals with osteoarthritis. Researchers divided the group in two, then gave one half a proprietary formulation of glucosamine, chondroitin, and manganese ascorbate, while the other half received a placebo. After eight weeks, knee arthritis sufferers in the glucosamine group reported significant pain relief, while those in the placebo group did not."

LIE YOUR A** OFF, AND SUCK IT UP!

I dont think it will affect you as long as it heals fully. My buddy actually got denied from the marines a couple of years ago because he had shattered his wrist in earlier years. I dont know why this had an effect on being a marine, but whatever.

There has been some major thread ressurecting as of late. . .

you'll be fine. i broke some major parts of my wrist and some minor parts. i broke my wrist and the straighter bone in the forearm (forget what its called) about 4 times now including the time when my crackhead *** doctor re-broke my arm (in the wrong way i include) and im totally fine. just play the wrist cool for a while until you feel like you can rest all your weight on it w/o a problem like doing pullups, pushups etc..
