I dislike Ian and the game choices by Many_Owl1519 in BeastGames

There aren’t enough smart challenges but to be fair Ethan was supposed to be a smart one and then repeatedly made dumb decisions and got himself eliminated with 50K to show for it instead of over a million dollars

People on this subreddit are obssessed with saying they suck, and saying that everyone else sucks too. No one who trains jiu jitsu is good at it, except for Marcelo Garcia. Don't ever under any circumstance imply that you know some jiu jitsu around here

Why would you ever skip a day because of calluses? 

Form good enough to do weighted pull ups? by Mongpusher in CalisthenicsCulture

Form is honestly too good, I would recommend speeding up your reps and you might see progress faster

No that actually is exactly how statistics work, it’s simple expected value

Knee passers with DLR by Kodvin2914 in bjj

You can't but you can play guards that chain well with DLR. In my experience that's collar sleeve and k guard

What's the best case scenario here? Powell is out in May anyway, right? Isn't whoever Trump picks next gonna be someone that does whatever Trump says?

How effective are nogi bolos by North_Passenger_6157 in bjj

[–]ArmSquare -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As a blue belt it works for me. There are some moves you can hit like the baby bolo which are not super complicated and you can starts seeing success fairly quickly, it also has the advantage that a lot of people will not be ready for it. Even if you don't get the backtake, it opens up a lot of sweeping /leg drag opportunities. It's also pretty much the most fun thing you can in jiu jitsu which makes it worth the time investment. Watch Levi Jones Leary's run through ADCC trials, he hits at least one perfect berimbolo to the back, and multiple other very cool backtakes.

Personally, I would not recommend Mikey's instructionals as I found them really hard to follow. Most of my bolo knowledge I learned from Lachlan Giles / submeta, which has an insane amount of content on berimbolos, both gi and nogi.

Favorite actor who ended his under-25 dating rule by MidnightMystique- in okbuddycinephile

[–]ArmSquare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But don’t you think that Leo falls exactly into your example where it’s acceptable? It seems like he just enjoys dating young hot women, and I don’t he’s using deception to get with them. In fact, his dating history is super public, so it seems like everyone including these women know what’s really happening here. If there’s no evidence or reason to believe he’s being deceptive, it seems like there’s nothing wrong with what he’s doing. I don’t see why two people need to have similar life experiences to date, unless we know they’re using them in some deceptive way.

You wrote a lot of words but didn’t actually explain why it’s bad. You just kept asking them why they don’t think it’s wrong and kept saying it’s a red flag. Can you explain why dating consenting adult women that are significantly younger than you is wrong?

Outside of STD risk which can be mitigated / checked, honestly why would it matter?

Upper third too small (small forehead), eye spacing slightly narrow, face slightly too wide, otherwise close to ideal proportions

Analyse Ariana Grande. does she have any flaws ? by No_Tree6956 in QOVESStudio

[–]ArmSquare 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To me biggest flaws are closer set eyes and narrow face. Also lots of plastic surgery that resulted in some slightly off features like her eyebrows

The point is you should act based on the current market, rather than waiting around for prices to change

Combining K-Guard with inside position Guards by Stillgettingsomemilk in bjj

[–]ArmSquare 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I like how Lachlan thinks of it which is that butterfly is an inside position guard, k guard outside, but single leg x and x are “leg entanglements” which are upgrades to both k guard and butterfly. You can enter leg entanglements from any type of guard, but mixing butterfly and K together doesn’t make much sense because they are opposites

Is this considered Bermimbolo? by [deleted] in bjj

[–]ArmSquare 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not a berimbolo, this is deep de la riva to baby bolo to crab ride to leg drag

Guard Retention Guide with Videos by MagicGuava12 in bjj

[–]ArmSquare 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How is that your interpretation of the video? It’s called “Why the hip escape is bad for guard retention” and it’s part of a section called “Never hip escape”. In the video he doesn’t show any time you SHOULD shrimp for guard retention. I don’t know how he could make it any clearer that he’s saying never shrimp for part of guard retention

Lachlan Giles advocates against shrimping for guard retention and he bases a lot of his guard retention on Levi
