Have live toes as much as possible, train consistently so my skin stays tough, and always treat any mat burn I get, including covering it if I'm training.

How do you treat the mat burns if I may ask?

Not op, but if I can tape it then I do. If not, I throw on some Vaseline. After showers just dab with Neosporin. It sounds a bit high maintenance but I'm not interested in infections and want to be consistent lol
