Episode 242 - How To Overcome The Fear Of Getting Injured In Competition

On this episode of the podcast, Chewy and Eugene discuss how to overcome the fear on getting injured in competition.

We discuss whether risk of injuries is higher in competition or training, when you are most likely to get injured in Jiu-Jitsu, why people avoid trying new things, whether increased exposure to a position decreases injury risk, why opponents feel stronger in competition, and how to gain power over the things you're fearful of.

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
