4 Steps to Reduce BJJ Injuries

Here are our top strategies for reducing injuries when training jiu-jitsu. While we'd love to prevent injuries altogether, it's simply not possible in a contact sport like jiu-jitsu. The best we can do is to take all the measures within our control to reduce the likelihood of getting injured.

Following these strategies will:
- allow you to reduce the likelihood of injury
- speed up your recovery in case you do get injured
- give you confidence on the mats, knowing that you're as well prepared as possible

You may already be doing some of the suggestions in this video. So, I suggest you use this video like a checklist and look to add one or more of the new strategies into your training habits at a time.

This video is broken into 4 key sections:
1. Rolling smart
2. Body Maintenance
3. Managing Training Output
4. Having a system to manage injuries
