At 150 and stopped free rolling with 200+ going 100%. I land out just hurting a rib, my back or neck. Since I stopped doing that, I haven't been getting hurt and not had to take time off.

I try to roll with the littlest guys possible, unfortunately the only one smaller than me is Yoda and he smashes me.
I roll with everyone 80 to 280 whatever
To avoid aggravating my injuries I took Luis' advice. Lockdown and top game only when dealing with the giant folk.Quote:

Its brutal on the body, but they appreciate and respect the fact that I roll and spar with all of them....6 nites a week..
I roll with everyone at my gym regardless of size, but most everyone their is size conscious and don't try to rip you in half or otherwise be an ass.
its good to roll with all body types as you never know what you will be up against in tournaments competitions and other situations .
I don't really care how big or small they are, I'm there to learn.
I'm 5'10 and about 160. I roll with a buddy of mine that's 6'3, 250lbs with 3% body fat. I make him work for the sub, but I can never submit him. My day will come though.
