Is aikido as hard on your body as judo is?

Aikido and Judo are both martial arts that involve physical contact, but the level of physicality and contact differs significantly between the two. Aikido is a non-aggressive martial art that uses joint locks and throws to subdue an attacker without causing injury. Judo, on the other hand, is a competitive martial art that involves a lot of body contact and throws. Aikido is less strenuous on the body than Judo as it does not involve contesting against an opponent.
