Wow okay. Maybe my club is “gentle”, I’ve never had a single injury from BJJ.

I’ve had some from lifting weights.

I see your point about solo sports.

> Also how on earth are you managing not to get bruises at BJJ

Oh I get “finger marks” on the arms for sure, but never got a black eye or a nosebleed from BJJ. I got that quite regularly from boxing and muay thai/MMA training.

Fair enough, I got three black eyes within my first three months! The injury situation definitely gets better as you improve and when you train with more skilled people.
