I had my first jiu jitsu class this week, and was worried that I wouldnt enjoy it when the reality of what grappling and getting grappled felt like. Thankfully I thought it wad super cool! But man gis are frickin expensive!!

You should be able to rip out your opponent's spine like sub zero

My last training sesh I tried to really focus on not being one of the dangerous white belts and just relaxing and moving with intention and focusing on just learning, and it was really fun! Then a teenage white belt who is on his high school's wrestling team pwned me super hard and we had a 15 min talk abt the history of grappling and bjj.

I heard people think BJJ belts are outdated, I simply think we should replace the belt system with getting bladed weapons culminating in replacing black belt with a katana and wakizashi

Doing bjj and knee subluxation that I hadnt had so long I had forgotten about it (decade+) happened. It wasnt even from a throw or submission, I literally just stood up in a way to apply a bunch of shearing force to my knee. it doesnt hurt at all but I guess I will baby it and go super light for a few weeks 😔

Alright tight, I had already watched Dr. Mike's vid so I think I have a good base. I guess I'll just take it easy with the lifting especially cause I'm in a deficit, so the only reason I suck on the mats will be because I suck and not because I suck and am also not recovering

This is the year I decided to get really into my favorite part of MMA, grappling, and even decided to start practicing bjj so I just wanna say thank you to Mekchu for declaring 2023 the Year of the Natty King: Nicky Rod.

Ohtori Akio posted:A couple weeks ago I did a trial class at a BJJ gym. Got told that white belts don't get to roll with each other except under supervision or if they know each other well already. During rounds, ended up with one white belt, who got a quick lecture before rolling with me, and had several color belts staring at us as we rolled. BJJ ftw!

Defenestrategy posted:I dislike this jesse dude, he always posts such click baity poo poo. This is the weirdo that entered a low turn out, low stakes, local jits comp and humble bragged about how he won a white belt division without training bjj iirc. This video is similar, I've never seen a gym where the actual fighters go in and just beat up on each other, the actual fighters can't afford to take a random rear end injury from banging hard. tbf, the first part of that vid was him getting owned in BJJ by a color belt who engaged more aggressively. So it was entirely clickbait, but still sorta honest lmao

Defenestrategy posted:Yo homie you do you, but if I had weird skin boils or lesions I'd have gone to urgent care. I did once and they just told me "Yeah youre gonna be prone to them. You can get antibiotics if you want but theyll just go away on their own" I just didnt know if they were like, irresponsible to roll with before I googled this time cause I picked up jiu jitsu in the last year

I have to wear a knee brace when doing activity for a few months and am worried people on the mats will bully me for it I assume I should get a like, sleeve/brace without buckles? Buschmaki fucked around with this message at 19:55 on Feb 20, 2024 |

Defenestrategy posted:They dont provide left right stabilty but the knee pad is good, they provide compression, and they do not slide at all. I've had mine for three months now, would buy again if only because I can hit drop seoi's and shots without pain. I need left right stability cause I guess I have a hypermobile kneecap Guess I'll see how rolling with the knee brace the doc gave me feels. (they said it was okay to train)

heeebrew posted:It's hilarious to worry about getting kids sick when I have gotten sick from teaching kids class almost twice a month for the past year. I feel this.. I work as a school custodian and if I'm not skipping training because I have some sorta insane illness from working near kids I skip training cause I pull something insanely hard from having to roll and then go to my job where I walk 6 miles and lift poo poo for 8 hours a day 😅.

I as a white belt, explained something to another white belt today 😔 It was the control mechanics of kesa and how to get out of it by bridging to rip the overhook cause I kept just pinning him down during positionals. He immediately used it to start guard recovery better like, as soon as I told him

Wrestlers should be required to have a patch on their gi or wear an armband in no gi or something. Yesterday I was doing open mat with another white belt and expecting an easy round and instead we just rolled hard for 2 rounds straight no breaks. Was cool tho cause I was able to keep up, which is nice validation that I'm actually improving lol
