Hi guys,
I recently started training Brazilian jiu-jitsu after ten years training karate/mma.
In the last 4 weeks at jui juitsu Iv managed to break 2 toes, the little one on one foot and the middle one on the other.
In my ten years of karate we have rolled a lot and Iv only broken a toe once, so I'm wondering if this is unusual?
I am a bodybuilder and powerlifter as well and I have heard excess protein and caffeine intake can result in brittle bones but I wasn't sure if this holds any truth?
Anyway, I can live with broken toes, Iv continued my training, lifting etc. but I'm just curious if this is normal for bjj practitioners or if I might want to investigate it.
Thanks! ??
