injuries in bjj Archives

Today we have a question from Derrick who feels really crummy about a recent situation at his BJJ Gym…

He is a 3-Stripe White Belt In Jiu-Jitsu, on top of being a bigger, so he tries his best to be as good of a training partner possible without hurting anyone, rolling soft in all his rounds.

Well, recently Derrick and his coach were rolling, and they ended up in the 50/50 Position and, out of nowhere, he injured his coach.

It was a complete accident and even the coach doesn’t blame Derrick.

Even though this is true Derrick still feels bad and doesn’t know what he should do to make up for the injury.

Well, I give Derrick a few pieces of advice, while also telling you a few stories about injuries I personally suffered in practices, and how I tend to deal with my own injuries when they happen in class.

Hopefully you find these ideas useful for you.

Recently the Ole Chewster has had some health issues….

With that being said, it’s forced me to take some time off the BJJ mats from hard rolling. And so with that I’ve decided to spend more time in other areas like the gym, specifically with stretching and mobility.

Lots of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioners are extremely tight, that includes me. Personally, I have struggled with flexibility my entire life. I’ve never been a flexible guy. And with years of hard training and a few surgeries. My body has some issues.

That said I’ve been correcting some of these issues with a stretching and mobility program I had created for me. In the video I’ll share some of the movements that have helped me out. The stretches and exercises today are focused on knees, hips and ankles.

If you’re struggling with a similar issue, then hopefully these ideas can be useful to you.

Just remember, I am not a doctor, nor am I giving you any medical advice. I’m just showing you what has been working for me.

Go see a professional if you are having any issues.
