Here are our top strategies for reducing injuries when training jiujitsu. While we'd love to prevent injuries altogether, it's simply not possible in a contact sport like jiujitsu. 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
