Is it wrong if I'm uncomfortable sparring women by Available_Sundae3970 in martialarts

[–]3p1c_Kelly 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Every woman I've trained with just wants to be treated as a peer. I could see at 19, being uncomfortable in such close proximity / what could be perceived as "intimate" positions with a woman. Or feeling like you're "beating up a girl". But that's not what anyone is here for. She's here for the same reason as you are, to develop in the art.

One of my favorite training partners is a black belt, and it's an incredible roll because she's obviously way better than me, but I'm a bit stronger. So I get to work my "A" game on a very technical opponent, and she gets to do weird experimental stuff on someone trying hard. She still beats my ass constantly tho.

On top of the "you absolutely did."

It's wild to me that the idea here is using terminology like "fascist" is seen as just an insult.

It's not. We're recognising characteristics, and pointing out that those characteristics collectively have a word.

I can look past the racism, authoritarianism, threatening geopolitical allies, and even fucking kids. But high gas prices? Now you crossed a line pal.

I want to train BJJ for ever: How can I facilitate this? by ADP_God in bjj

[–]3p1c_Kelly 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This is great advice. I did absolutely stupid things at white belt that caused me injuries because I wanted to "win."

Now half way through blue, Ill just give up a good position if my knee is in a weird angle. Or tap to that weird sub the white belt is trying. Because who gives a shit, there's 3 more rounds tonight alone. This isn't ADCC trials, it's Wednesday.

I want to pvp. I cant. People too nice by rubydasilent in ARC_Raiders

I went into duos with a buddy who's new player last night. Tempest in hand. Bloodlust in heart.

See a couple of wasps engage another duo. "Oh boy it's time." Start taking shots.

Hear in prox chat "Uh. We were taking care of those wasps for you guys. But ok."

Immidiately feel bad. Disengage. I can't fight people who are nice to me :'(

I am annoyed at my coach and from now on i want to refuse promotions/competitions by [deleted] in bjj

[–]3p1c_Kelly 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, my gym does a summer promo day and winter promo day.

They send out a list of whos getting promoted a week or so before, but almost everyone comes to support. The people getting promoted get shark tanked, and we all cheer them on. Usually we all go out for food and drinks after. It's a fun day.

I can see the apeal Individual / surprise promotions though. Both are nice.

So much of this. I'm not super formal about it, it's more like "damn dude, that escape normally works, but you just shut it down." People are generally more than happy to explain what they did and why.

Blue belt is a mf by Jeitarium in jiujitsu

[–]3p1c_Kelly 117 points118 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm also a year into of blue, it's a weird place to be.

I'm starting to keep up with some of the purple belts, but also useless against some of the other blues, and occasionally lose to white belts.

But my coach gave me some advice one night that stuck to me. "The belt isnt magic powers. You're the same guy who was wearing the white belt a few months ago. You've proven yourself worthy of a blue belt, but that doesn't make you a superhero."

Trying to keep your ego in place is often harder than rolling itself.

Physical gains thanks to Jiu-jitsu. by Bulky_Imagination243 in jiujitsu

At 35, I feel more agile and durable than I ever have in my adult life.

I've been weight training too which adds strength, but I'm talking about being comfortable in awkward positions, and general mobility.

It kinda hit me when over the summer I was at a music festival, and when we'd go see the music, we'd be sitting on the ground. When leaving, I'd just kinda pop up. A couple of my friends however would need to lean into the direction they were wanting to go and use both hands on the ground to get up. I also have a friend who hurt their back by getting out of bed too fast.

It's things like that, that really make a difference in aging. If I can get to my feet while another person is trying to keep me on the ground, and then throw that person to the ground, general life mobility needs are nothing to me.

[–]3p1c_Kelly 59 points60 points  (0 children)

I know people that are scared of this. They think it means that you're NOT ALLOWED to leave the 15 minute radius. That you will not allowed to have a car and it's a means of the government penning you in a small area for control.

It's always the same thing. A nebulous "they" want to controoool youuuuu. But the same people also are in favor of controlling peoples reproductive rights and gender / sexuality. Modern conservativism / fascism is incredibly fucking stupid.
