-Give them a "theory exam" before putting them in the military. Legendary+5 record keeper ought to do.
-Use an obsidian farm to make them legendary miners, engravers and masons as well without requiring a huge map. Legendary stone crafter and mechanic is also a bonus so they can make their own obsidian blades.
-Put the butcher shop in the barracks, screw miasma, we got waterfalls against that.
-AFAIK you gain armor skill by falling off things(atleast adventurers do) so station them on a bridge at z-1 and have somebody spam the related lever.
-Make them swim for better effects, careful not to drown them.
-pump operating, as said before.
-Their first taste of combat comes from hunting deer released in an old stripmine. They will try to ambush the target and if you pair them up with a bogged down recruit, they will chase after it forever untill you deselect the hunting labor and undraft the noisemaker.
-Next, give them an axe and send them out in the woods, preferably underground ones.
-Have them work on the farms in their spare time.
-Train them as siege operators, marksdwarves and wrestlers, in that order.
-Only then you give them an XXwooden weaponXX(put it on fire and dump it in water when it reaches the desired % of charcoal) and let them fight against captive animals untill you run out so they aren't dabbling anymore when they realy start to spar.

That ought to reduce injuries.

By the time you've done that, they won't need to spar! With their ☼obsidian swords☼ and ultra-mighty, perfectly-agile superdwarvenly-tough stats, they'll be able to rip apart goblin sieges, weapon skills or no

...Plus it would take several in-game years to accomplish this, by which time you've been overrun by goblins and zombie deer
