Don't be a pussy, don't be a dick

Are you a journalist for a poor quality newspaper? You must be to consider poor misquotes like that acceptable.

The implication is simply that trying to be as safe as possible under the illusion that by not doing this/that, you won't get injuries, (like staying at home and going out sparingly) actually put you in a greater risk of getting injuries than staying at home sparingly, it's misquoted to fit the specific training.
