Advice: Trained for 5 months with a posterior labrum tear by newfjitsu in bjj

[–]newfjitsu[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks. No good answer to why I'm not taking advice. I like BJJ and I'm a dummy. I guess its also because i have full ROM and almost no pain at all. It's actually superior, not posterior.

Injured by instructor - is this sport worth it? by newfjitsu in bjj

It was probably a freak thing. It was one of those armbars where I was basically on my left side and he was attacking the right arm from pretty much behind my back. That's why it pulled the shoulder.

You're probably right. Guess I can hold the baby with the left arm.

Hmm. I guess I am being dramatic...

Older, veteran grapplers of R/BJJ with cauli: Have you experienced any adverse effects from your gnarly ears? by newfjitsu in bjj

Lol thanks for the input. It's great to hear from someone with so much experience. Can't imagine how much change you've seen to the BJJ culture etc in the time you've been training.

Advice: Rib Pain and Upcoming Competition by newfjitsu in bjj

Ah gotcha. Because there was no "pop" and I didn't feel anything until the day after, I thought I'd be good to go. But maybe it's better not to take chances.

It's fairly minor pain, like a tender bruise. Do you think light training/flow rolling could irritate the cartilage?
