I was being sarcastic but I picked up a sweet triangle set up from the internet. But yeah the actual best place to learn jujitsu is on the mean streets.

Iseeyouseemeseeyou posted:aw yeah tell me more about these martial artist lesbians Sure! They have wide shoulders and often wear little or very plain makeup, have rather wild but short cropped hairstyles and they usually hang out with only.... certain ladies at your club. And they naturally punch very hard compared to average girls/women. For some reason most appear to be strikers first. I assume you wanted to know about the hot, hot three-way group sessions in the women's locker room after the last class of the evening when everyone else have left?

Seeing as this thread is now Hot Gay Chat, we all went out for the BJJ club christmas night out the other evening. Got towards the end of the night, everyone's drunk as gently caress, and discovered one of our guys in the corner of the nightclub, getting intimate with some other guy. Amazing. He was all "I didn't want you guys to find out". Hey dude we do "YMCA The Sport", it's cool.

There's still a lot of homophobia around the martial arts, it's a safe bet to keep it quiet until you're sure that your teachers and training partners won't be dicks about it.

Inform your local constabulary. or Hire the APA. or Do an involved training montage where you go train under the Gracies and other world famous martial artists and become the ultimate bad rear end?

So here is a fun injury. Long story short - I now have blister the size of a looney on my palm ( not from training ). It is large enough that washing it and putting polysporin on it makes it feel like it is on fire and the tips of my fingers go numb. The timing is probably as good as it gets because the gym is shut down for the week, but even though it is on my palm and probably will heal fast, I'm pretty sure it's still going to be hosed next time I go in. I've never had a blister this bad, so I'm not sure if my usual "slather on a few layers of liquid skin/super glue stuff" I've used for mat burn will actually accomplish anything. Is there a...grappling glove? that I can wear on one hand? Obviously a michael jackson style one would just get shredded but bonus points if it has sparkles and/or rhinestones.

Put a bandage over it, then wrap gauze around your hand over it, then wrap athletic tape around your hand over the gauze.

I do jits every other day and kickboxing once a week and was interested in getting a fitness tracker, but since I'm discouraged from even wearing my wedding ring in practice I thought the typical bracelet form of fitness tracker would be a bad idea. Is there anything else out there that may work, or is there nothing for grapplers?

None of them will really work properly. They are calibrated for steps, which is only vertical movement, they don't track limbs, so you'd have to input activity data. Plus there isn't a great way to wear one of them while grappling.

Yup. Maybe get a wireless HR chest strap? I've heard some people have used the Underarmor while grappling with success. Maybe under a rashguard it would work?

I normally wear a long sleeve rash guard, so it's actually totally solid and doesn't move around at all - I'll realize all of a sudden when going home that I've still got it on. That said - the data is as others have mentioned, totally meaningless. For ~2 hours it works out to an average of maybe 1000 "steps" and ~400 calories according to Sony's app, which in reality is obviously not even close to a realistic representation of working myself so hard I almost puked.

I got a Fuji Sekai for Christmas but it's an A4. I mostly wear Vulkan and Koral in an A3. Does anyone know how the sizes compare and if the Fuji will shrink?

I bought a Fuji Suparaito A4 on Cyber Monday but it's huge compared to another Fuji A4 single weave gi I got years ago. I tried shrinking it but it won't shrink enough to fit me comfortably. I'm about 5'7" 190 lbs, pretty chubby and stumpy. I'm thinking I should have gotten the A3. YMMV, I guess.
