As a matter of curiosity, how often do you get a bad bruise in training?

Hm, depends on what we do. We're concentrating on kirikaeshi at the moment, but when we do more jigeiko then I have big bruises everytime. Mostly on the right arm, hand, sometimes also on the right hip bone.

Yesterday our two beginners did kote on bogu for the first time, I have some slight bruises now...
