one of the biggest excuses i hear a lot is.. "I would train BJJ but i'm just not flexible." But do you really need to be a flexible person before starting like Jiu jitsu or another martial art? 

Although being flexible has its advantages over your game and by decreasing the risk of injury you don't need to be flexible to start.

One of the great things about BJJ over other martial arts is that you can develop a game that works well for you and your body. 

If you have have the ability to invert or do another move thats okay, you can find techniques that work well for you.

In the mean time as far as injury risk goes, putting in the time and effort to work on your flexibility and mobility will have huge payouts in the future.
