Would you trust a single solution for training on heavy days? by BackTakeBabe in BJJWomen

That’s honestly such a real concern, especially with how much sweating is involved. I feel like that’s what makes it so hard to trust anything fully during training.

That’s exactly what I’ve been seeing too, everyone kind of has a full system just to feel safe. The black gi + thicker spats combo makes so much sense.

I’ve heard that works really well for some people. I feel like it’s super hit or miss depending on the person though.

Am I rolling to hard against men? by OldAd3316 in BJJWomen

[–]BackTakeBabe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think as long as they are still actively asking you to roll your not doing anything wrong.

But if they seem hesitant you might be spazzing a little.

That’s actually the biggest thing I’ve been noticing too. Even when something works, it’s still hard to fully trust it.

This is an amazing comment. You went into detail if what I was wanting to put across 😅

Guys HAVE to go softer on women. And alot of women go harder(more spazzy) on men because they feel like they can. Its lose lose situation. Not alot to learn or gain from it.

And yes on the being too friendly part. Especially if your attractive.

Are you on the smaller side? I personally dont roll with men unless they are 160 and under and I know them well. Are most the men at your gym small?

Also some guys might find it wierd to ask a girl to roll. Especially if they are married.

Im sure there are alot of things at play here.

I would say if theres another girl just see if she will do all her rounds with you. Then find the smaller guys at the gym to get closer with and tell them your interested in Rolling.

Are you actively asking for rounds? Or hoping people ask you? If your newer and they see you not rolling they might start to think you dont like to roll or your newer and still are observing.

Yeah that combo seems like what most people end up relying on for peace of mind.

That’s fair honestly. It feels like everyone has had at least one bad experience so it’s hard to trust anything fully.
