Can I train BJJ with a bad back?

injurytraining

Many people with back issues train BJJ successfully, but consult a doctor first. Strengthen your core. Avoid positions that aggravate your back. Communicate with training partners. Some techniques may be off-limits. BJJ can actually help back pain by building core strength and mobility when done carefully.

Track Your BJJ Progress

Reading is great, but tracking your training takes your BJJ to the next level. Log sessions, track techniques, and measure your progress with BJJ Notes.
