Does impetigo count??? I got a impetigo infection from my BJJ class a couple of months ago. That wasn’t nice and I had to eat penicilin for 10 days. I always look for open wounds on my trainig partners after that.
One time I was in the bathroom watching myself do front snap-kicks in the mirror. Needless to say I wasn’t looking where my foot was going.. Booted the pointy bit of the old fashioned door catch at full force. It got me right in the ball of my foot just under my toes. Just managed to hop over to the bathtub before the blood started pouring out all over the place. The bruising was terrible the next day. :eek:
I think you’re probably the first people I’ve ever told about this one.
Pink-eye from BJJ…
Have to mention this because this is another showdown of would be injury,another lesson in technique and bad technique…
Talking about mirrors reminds me when I was just loosely practicing in front of a big mirror when I threw a wild,uncontrolled back kick only to notice a TV crashing down on the floor…
was not injured luckily,the equipment.
That shows that one should have good focus in his/her ushiro-geri and remember to look over shoulder if possible to aim enough.
