Common Injuries
As a very physical combat sport, Judo is a sport in which it is fairly easy to sustain injuries. Therefore, it is essential that Judoka warm up properly before taking part in an Amateur Competition. One of the most essential parts of the warming up is stretching.
Even though its a non violent and exceptionally fair sport, kicking and hitting, for example, are not allowed Judokas could still be thrown on the floor or have their limbs or even heads locked in awkward, uncomfortable holds or grips.
Anyone who takes part in Judo on a regular basis is quite likely to get injured sooner or later, but the injuries are usually minor.
Prevent Serious Injuries
- Warm up and stretch properly before training or matches.
- Train and practiced under the guidance of a professional, licensed coach.
- Practice and repeat offensive and defensive moves.
- Tap the floor and acknowledge when others are tapping as well.
