How often do you guys get hurt doing bjj? First I dislocate my rib and am out for like four months and then I train for three months and then I get my arm hyperextended from some weird hapkido standing armbar, but on the ground. I didn't know what he was doing, so I didn't know I was in trouble until POP! It seems like I am injuried more than I train. Man, I'm starting to just feel like working on my striking and take a break from grappling. Any advice guys? Oh, and I'm double jointed, so sometimes I don't know that I'm in trouble because it doesn't hurt, but I feel the pressure.
