There's nothing irregularly shaped that I know of. My d&b just doesn't all fit with the cup flush against me. Basically there's enough of a gap on the top of the cup where it isn't flush with my skin big enough I could fit a finger in it. If I push the top flush, the gap moves to the bottom. From what I understand the cup is supposed to be flush all the way around and snug. The shape is right, but i need just a tiny bit more room I think and I'm an idiot and have no idea what to do

I think I can help u out ... i need a little more info about your penis though.

How is the first turn at advantage determined in EBI tiebreakers?

And what happens in the unlikely event that after 3 times around that the escape/sub times are tied?

I don't have the time to do big effortposts for Judo and Wrestling at the Olympics this year. Does anybody else want to? Otherwise I'm going to do some half assed OPs with just schedules and maybe some highlight videos.

I have two wide hairless strips along the inside of my thighs from years of guard play and while I don't practice SW much anymore it still hasn't grown back. Thanks, grappling!

Martial arts in general would be a WAY better place if the worst opinion I've heard from a high level martial arts guy was 9/11 was an inside job and aliens exist.

Here's an "I guess I'm improving" moment: the questions I've been asking blue belts in class either now having more involved answers, the answers are hedged, or they shrug and tell me to ask an upper belt.

Is it rude to my new school to not tell them I have a blue belt? I started there about a month ago, really into doing nogi right now. But I got a blue belt 12 years ago and quit immediately after. I've tapped some higher belts on the open mat, and I get asked what my rank is after every single roll; when I say white, they ask me if I am a wrestler, sambo etc. Ive been truly enjoying being a white bellt though, no pressure. I don't feel like I remember enough from when I used to train and that a lot of stuff I do just feels natural. When I signed up I told the instructor that I had done bjj before, but I didn't specify

if you're going to compete under the school name I'd have a chat with them but if you're just going in and rolling who cares

12 years ago I could and would jack off like 10 times a day every day. if i tried to do that now sure, I could maybe recapture some of the old magic but I'd end up tearing the dick right off my body. your blue belt is much the same

I did talk with one of the coaches, and his response was basically "that sucks good luck" and at the end of class proceeded to choke and arm bar me a few times for good measure.

It's really awesome. Im friends with one of the pro fighters here and the owners got their dog from the same breeder as me. All the coaches are really awesome and will work one on one with new people. It's been really good. I got my rear end kicked in Muay Thai sparring yesterday, but still been a great time all in all.

Evolve from what I've been told is a really really nice facility. I want to know about their classes though, according to their website there's separate BJJ and BJJ randori classes. And while I relish the idea of taking my gi around the world with me, not being able to actually roll in it doesn't seem like it's worth it. I won't be in Singapore during a time when they have a randori class at Evolve.

Ideally I'd like to find a place that teaches no gi since spats and shorts take up way less space than my gi, I'm trying to pack for 3 weeks in carry on luggage with a drone.

There is an idea of a Yuns, some kind of abstraction, but there is no real me, only an entity, something illusory, and though I can hide my cold gaze and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable: I simply am not there.
You should train at Evolve because my friend and former training partner Chatri founded it. Also because it's nice as hell with an elite coaching staff. You can call or email them about no gi training times for the dates you are there.

Edit: seems to be no gi on Friday and Sunday and wrestling on Saturday. Look for the purple blocks in the calendar with no gi in parentheses. Wrestling is colored brown.
