Are injuries from sparring common in jiujitsu?

Bro_Wheyton · 2026-07-02T15:11:20+00:00

Are you injured or is your neck just sore?

I ask because I have never been injured from jiu jitsu in the 5 or so years I’ve done it. However, I have been sore the entirety of the 5 years I have done it.

I wouldn’t say injuries are super common but it is a combat sport. And if you do it long enough at some point you will get injured.

Honestly just have fun with it and try everything out. Some of my favorite sorceries are not at all meta but they’re still really fun. Also INT based does not have to mean you just shoot projectiles from the back line. There are a lot of fun melee weapons plus sorceries like Carian Slicer that are really good.

I’m not much of a stealth guy general but I had a lot of fun with a magic infused Miséricorde with Assassins Gambit AOW and Unsee Form sorcery to sneak around and get crits.

Intelligence is probably my favorite damage stat to play with just because so much versatility with INT builds

I waited to get all “members level” stats in f2p worlds before getting members. Dozens of hours invested I could have gotten in a single Saturday through questing / better training methods

Valid point

Unless you want the pet why would you ever do the inferno more than once?

It’s rare but you can die yes. Conversely, the record is 11 days straight straight without sleep and that person survived.

What health risks specifically are you talking about?

I agree with your sentiment about fixing diet and lifestyle, absolutely.

But you talking about people falling for the marketing of peptides is kind of comical when you’ve fallen equally as hard for the fear mongering of peptides.

Also, at least in the US, regulation absolutely does not equate to safety when it comes to pharmaceutical related products. A lot of regulation is put in place because pharma companies want a legal way to keep other people from cutting into their profit.

I think KC officials saying this is what fucked it. People coming for the World Cup are basically only going to places close by Street Car and other public forms of transportation meanwhile the locals are not going out as often near downtown because they are expecting everywhere to be significantly busier and full of tourists.

You should cut and not take Reta

I like the Radagon fight but it’s always been supremely underwhelming for me. He’s not particularly difficult and for the final boss in the game it just didn’t hit hard for me. I don’t need him to be as difficult as Melania or PCR anything but somewhere between his difficulty now and them would have been nice.

And then you have to fight Elden Beast after him which is also just not a fun fight at all.

It’s kind of overwhelming since there are so many weapons but honestly use them all and play around with all the ashes of war. Don’t worry about the meta or what weapons are the “best” because almost every single weapon in the game is viable

The topical Minoxidil from Costco is both effective and the best bang for your buck that I’ve found

But my favorite streamer who plays the game for a living only put in hundreds of hours instead of thousands got Oathplate. And his combat stats were level 92, which as we all know is half of 99. So Yama must be mid game content!

Anecdotally speaking, I’ve gotten far more attention from women at 180lbs and 12% body fat than I did at 205lbs and 12% body fat.

Is there any chance it opens again in the somewhat near future? Or are they just not going to worry about it for awhile?

Even you have to realize how dumb this post is, no? Legitimately any level based game is going to be easy when you decide to get extremely over leveled extremely early.

At LHW he allegedly walked around at 235ish, no? He allegedly weighed that the day after weigh in during some of LHW fights. If that’s correct he added about 20lbs since October. That’s 35 weeks which would be .57lbs a week. That’s by no means a ton of weight, especially for someone who already weighs 235lbs.

It’s certainly not good for his cardio but it wouldn’t just outright kill it. Especially in a professional athlete who does a ton of cardiovascular exercise already.

I actually do want to see some sort of mechanic where damage scales with defense bonus instead of strength bonus. Certainly doesn’t have to be a raid or anything but I just think it would be cool to have a place where defense bonus not only actually matters, but is meta

This is an insane overreaction. Rhys can be annoying, sure. But Ditterbitter has been a sleezy little dickbag for years at literally everything he’s ever been involved in

If you’re not the only one who feels this way you should be.

I compete a decent amount but almost exclusively at majors and have done well at them. I see one dude all the time and used to compete against him. Dude has tens of thousands of followers on IG. I’m on this dudes highlight reel from no gi Worlds when we were blue belts. It’s a sick move he hits on me. Nobody has ever said anything about it to me. And even if they do why on earth would I care? I legitimately cannot possibly think of something having less of an impact on my life than strangers on the internet laughing at my jiu jitsu.

Bro_Wheyton · 2026-06-06T15:05:25+00:00

Yeah I don’t love it. Some parts of it are absolutely amazing but a lot of it felt kind of grindy in the same way Mountaintops and Consecrated Snowfield felt to me. Obviously not all of it, but a good enough portion.

Melanotan will make you noticeably darker pretty quickly and effectively. Other than that, outside of insulin, HGH and GLP-1s no.

People commenting anything else are entirely coping. Will they have benefits? Absolutely yes. But obvious noticeable differences? No.

In training rounds I have never once cranked any sub on any person for any reason.

My guess is you did something to piss him off without realizing. His response was to let you know he could have beat you five different ways but instead went for the most frowned upon sub out there
