The way I think of it is that I can't live my life in fear of what if I hurt my hands or "what ifs". Just live and do what you feel like doing, be a kid again.
Do yoga, lots of it. Like 30 minutes a day. Don't wear knee pads or ancle pads they will get you hurt more. Being flexible is the best way not to get hurt and just don't force anything just flow. Flowing will allow you to control the pace and allow you to tap early (and tap often). Also avoid rolling with meat-heads.
