Alan Armstrong Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Injuries are all apart of the training. Broken nose, fingers, toes, and ribs. Cuts, bruises and lacerations. Torn ACL. Bruised ego was the worst. I was wondering if the training injuries incurred, with all the comments so far are all from male participants, or are there females that have sustained injuries, such as broken noses and cracked ribs also?

I'm a male practitioner/teacher, and I will say this, I've seen the ratio be a 50/50 in both genders; accidents happen!! **Proof is on the floor!!!

singularity6 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 My shoulders sublux/dislocate (always have.) Physical Therapy seems to help some. I also have an issue with straining my adductor muscles in my hips.Oh, I also train with my wife. She's kicked me in the nuts before. 5th Geup Jidokwan Tae Kwon Do/Hap Ki Do(Never officially tested in aikido, iaido or kendo) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would ask my wife to "please don't spar with me while wearing my steel toe capped work boots!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
