Martial arts training is very hard work and requires being in close contact with other people and oftentimes getting sweaty. Considering how your uniform is exposed to a lot of grime and dirt, it is essential that extra effort is taken in order to not only look good but reduce the risk of infection as well. Furthermore, make sure not to shave skin prior to training, as this takes away the skin's natural flora which contains good bacteria and serves as a barrier to prevent infections from occurring.
