Brazilian jiu jitsu (BJJ)

Then they start asking for advice, and you look over your shoulder to see who that question was addressed too

 

trust the process. Progression is inevitable is your logging mat time

 

Went to a new BJJ gym tonight for No-Gi drop-in, met some really cool folks and two hours went super quick

 

you mean like feedin the slots, yah don’t wanna leave

 

there’s a reason for no clocks on the gambling floor

 

Had a good roll with @P2W tonight! Hope you had a good visit, come back anytime!!

 

heck yeah I’ll be back

 

well it’s good to have goals

 

I think a hit list is healthy to a degree lol

 

you should absolutely be gunning for blue belts. Keeps them sharp and tests your skills

 

Can I introduce you to our lord and savior, the wrist lock?

 

don’t go teaching him the dark arts now

 

Oil checking is an everywhere thing. Wrist locks can be gimmicky but they definitely catch people off guard. Not saying you'll do it twice in a row, but you'd be surprised how often they work the first attempt

 

I’ve also heard a variation of that coined with the term the “collegiate grip”

 

What do you walk around at

 

I was 5'11" and 225lbs. when I was training and I always had a hard time against the lighter and smaller guys. They were faster and had more cardio. The lean tall guys were a lot more flexible. I preferred rolling with guys my size or bigger.

 

It really depends on your style of grappling to. Without knowing anything about your game I’d recommend maybe settling for 165-175.
As long as you’ve got cardio and you feel strong I’d say you’re close to where you should be

 

I don’t compete, but I heard from an experienced competitor that when big guys roll (+225 lbs) who ever wins is who gets on top first.

 

One of my teammates decided he had enough and tapped when I stacked him and kept following him as he tried to hip out, I’m 6’1” at 250

I do Muay Thai for the cardio
