This is the Conversation Forum for Judo << A few other mistakes My Complements >> Subject: Messed up toes Posted Nov 27, 2002 by Froodiest Guy In The Universe   Posting 1 This entry clayms that there are very few injuries in Judo due to good training in falling. It does not, however, mention the damage caused to toes, fingers and ears. It is monstrous. You will have a hard time finding an experienced Judoka whose toes and fingers havenīt been messed up pretty badly and whose ears havent been bent, broken and half torn off. There are ofcourse a few exceptions (I myself is one of those lucky buggers), but the majority of Judokas are not a pretty sight.

I myself have fractured one and constantly have mat burn on the back of my hands/ top of my feet Still, it wouldn't stop me doing it Subject: Messed up toes Posted Jul 26, 2004 by makikomi This is a reply to this Posting   Posting 3 In that, you need to find a decent club. I have done judo for 14 years and only ONCE suffered a broken toe, and ONCE sprained a finger muscle. Oh, and I am a 3rd Dan - a grade I earned through contest. Conversation list Conversation list
