Recommended Safety Practices
 

1. Personal Responsibility – Every user of this website is responsible for their own safety. Before engaging in any wrestling or combat sports activity, evaluate your personal limits, experience level, and the potential risks involved.
    

2. Informed Consent – All interactions should be based on mutual agreement. Clearly discuss boundaries, expectations, and safety measures before engaging in any activity. Consider establishing safe words or signals to communicate discomfort or the need to stop.
    

3. Public Meetings – If you are meeting someone for the first time, consider arranging an initial meeting in a public place. This allows for a preliminary assessment of the individual and ensures a safer environment before committing to a private setting.
    

4. Notifying Others – Inform a trusted friend, family member, or community member about your plans, including the location, time, and identity of the person you are meeting.
    

5. Skill and Fitness Assessment – Be honest about your skill level, physical condition, and any pre-existing medical conditions. Mismatched experience levels can increase the risk of injury.
    

6. Equipment and Environment – Ensure that the wrestling or training area is appropriate, with adequate padding and safety measures in place to minimize the risk of harm.
    

7. Listen to Your Instincts – If you feel uncomfortable or uncertain about a situation, trust your judgment and remove yourself from it. Your safety should always take precedence.
    

8. Emergency Preparedness – Know the location of the nearest medical assistance and have a plan in place for handling emergencies.
    

9. Medical Insurance – Users are recommended to ensure they have medical coverage in the jurisdiction where they are engaging in wrestling or combat sports activities.
