My Advice For White Belts in BJJ on Training with Injuries

The focus in today's video is discussing why training with injuries as a white belt in BJJ is an important skill to develop.
Being able to avoid injuries is a great mindset, soon our later we will be dealing with a Jiu Jitsu injury. Any time we put our Jiu-Jitsu training on pause, we tend to lose training momentum and encouragement.

I train and have trained with injuries cuz I'm H O N G R Y lol Being 40 now and in it for about 14 months, my window of opportunity to train 6-7 days a week is closing rapidly. Also something I've told our instructor is if I didn't enjoy it, his teaching style didn't click with me, or the people who choose to train there weren't quality people I couldn't force myself to be there as often as I am. Probably the worst injury stemmed from being rolled over backward on my head/neck by a significantly larger purple belt. I think the strain was in my longissimus capitis and/or cervicis. For a few weeks it was torture rolling over in bed and quite difficult to check my blind spots while driving. Oddly enough I didn't feel it too much while rolling, probably because I was trying to keep my head straight. Second (and subsequently recurring) injury came from an ultraheavy brown belt who got me in a toe hold and popped something around the ankle area. To his credit he didn't put much pressure on it; I chalked that one up to inflexible and old joints. Then a month after that I was in a straight ankle shoot out with a fellow white belt who caught me first making it pop another few times. That made it quite a bit worse but xrays came back clear. Solution: lace up ankle brace until the pain was mostly gone, then hide it best I can. Third one that's taking a bit longer to feel right is around the mcl. That one was kind of my fault by letting a smaller black belt smash pass my guard. I was trying to show off my flexibility or something instead of rolling or inverting to reduce pressure on my legs and knees. I just use bengay or tiger balm before getting on the mat and avoid situations where people would put pressure on my inside knee. No biggie! We play a risky game :))

[@geneholmes7308]

Excellent and unique video! Thank you sir

[@ChasenHill]

Thank you for the kind words and support! 👊🏻

[@chrisblack426]

A herniated disc in my upper back basically no inverting don't let anyone grab my upper neck and avoid very intense roles

[@jedsanford7879]

Ive never not been minor injured in BJJ. Tore my ear a good bit. got popped in the nose. currently dealing with a sprained or a possibly dislocated pinky toe? gotta go get that knowledge tho. Another plug for going to the academy when injured- your instructor is teaching things in an order. The instructionals- not necessarily. sticking with the classes even if you cant roll will keep you on the schedule so you arent lost af later.

[@dannyherrera7619]

Dealing with plantar fasciitis for a couple of weeks now, and in a lot of pain to even walk. I’ve trained 8 days the last two weeks. I skip the warmups (especially the jogging a lap or two) and take it easy rolling at the end of class, but I drill with no issues. My wife doesn’t get how I limp walking but can still train. She doesn’t get it lol.

[@ChasenHill]

That is no fun to deal with! Glad you haven’t let it keep you down!

[@stephenwhitelaw-kirk5154]

Three classes in Cracked ribs due to fellow new white belt unaware of controlling his weight and me being unaware of how to deal with it. Don’t intend to quit despite my wife being unhappy. Will be back asap.

[@bobbydabutcha]

Literally just snapped my ankle via straight ankle lock Wednesday night. It didn’t seem too terrible so I finished the round. Later on it was swollen and bruised lol. I’m out for the count until the swelling goes down and I can walk/bear weight on it. Hopefully a week or so! OSS!

[@forwhatitsworth9958]

I have neck and back injuries from my time in the military.

[@jamesc8600]

Just started and rib injury intercostal muscle. Definitely can't train when I can't even sniff.bend down. Cough.sit up from laying down.Very frustrating!

[@williamsmith5429]

My knee dislocated dosent happen all the time seems to be happening once or twice a year. I can walk but have significant bruising it has been 3 weeks what do you think I feel like I can do a lot but really worried it will keep popping out and I will have another set back

[@Unibot47]

Tore something in my hip/groin and can hardly walk. Soo the 12 days or so I have off from work will be spent laid up. Going in for an appointment today. Shit sucks that I won't be able to train for a bit :(

[@CynicEidolon]

White belt, Training for 3 months on a stress fractured heel. Don't quit. It hurts but the progress you make is worth it. If you don't make progress during the injury, it was all for nothing.

[@0hopscotch0]

Im currently injured and can’t physically train. I just show up to class and watch and listen

[@ShaneHarveyMusic]

I’m a 2 stripe wb and i have this stupid right groin injury. I drilled for 3 weeks not rolling.. it got a bit better but an opponent with me in a closed guard during my first roll pushed down on my knee and spread my leg and yikes!!!! I’m doing all the right things but there’s no easy solution to hip injuries as soooo much of bjj is hip oriented.

[@blockaderunner]

Do I have to pay to watch? I may have torn a right lat. using fasting and sleep and ice pack to heal asap. Haven’t missed a week all year will be going on vacation soon though

[@0hopscotch0]

I had a minor injury that prevented me from training. But id still come to class to at least be there mentally.

[@ChasenHill]

That’s a great habit to start building! Watching from the outside gives a different perspective! Please keep it going! Thanks for sharing, my friend! 👊🏻

[@0hopscotch0]

Thanks for the videos

[@walterthome1121]

Hamstring. Too dangerous to roll spontaneously with risk of more damage. Drill though. More control with less risk of sitting on the sidelines. Definitely full on gains.

[@geaves762]

If you have a major injury just going to class keeps you on schedule.
