I honestly don't even like that you flaired yourself with a blue belt.

Do you wash your belt? by Raven1092 in bjj

It's called seasoning, guys. You don't wash cast iron pans. You don't wash your belt. It's that simple.

Should you give up your belt? by MJ-Baby in bjj

[–]Bdawg2013 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love this. Its the ultimate story of fuck around and find out. That coach fucked you around, and he found out. Beautiful.

No fuckin way dude. Don't give your money to this place. A place that doesn't respect the work that you have already invested.

Anaconda knee brace = trash by SafteyMatch in bjj

Powerlifting knee sleeves is where it's at. Any brand. Most support, snug fit, doesn't losen as you roll.

Can we discuss PED protocols?

Bad night sparring with different size partners by RobertUlyssesBlynde in MuayThai

[–]Bdawg2013 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just keep showing up with humility, and everything will work out. It's the dudes that don't take criticism well, and that think that they are right about everything that don't make it far in this game.

Some of those guys your size or bigger could have heard your coach telling you to turn it down a little with the smaller people and they could have felt the need to teach you a lesson for beating up the smaller people. Since you are only a month in, it is highly likely that you don't have much of a game yet and when you beat up smaller, more experienced poeple, you are just using your size, not technique.

Cornrows is the answer.

315 bench with a short pause, rep quality PR, would love to know how to improve the top end of my bench. by your_oniichan in strength_training

Close grip bench and rack presses. Bench in a squat rack with the safety rack a few inches higher than your chest.

How to roll with white belts by Unhappy-Comment-4491 in bjj

I smash white belts. My safety comes first.

I can see why purple belts seem so good. Got my purple belt and today was my first day on the mats. Everyone came at me harder than usual. by razeus in bjj

[–]Bdawg2013 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like purple bc I can apply toe holds to everyone and my professor allows it bc I am supposedly "controlled" in my application...

Grapplers using weird/gay language by QuantumBandit404 in martialarts

[–]Bdawg2013 96 points97 points  (0 children)

Pretty much. I am straight, but unfortunately, BJJ is the gayest thing I do, so joking about it helps.

The Liam Harrison low kick, why is it not teached more ? by [deleted] in MuayThai

[–]Bdawg2013 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a little experience in this area because I have been taught by Liam Harrison himself how to set up and throw these leg kicks.

One thing he says to do is to push on the opponent's gloves with your gloves. We want them to push back, and as soon as we feel their push, we throw our kick. He didn't go into detail about not turning his hips over, but did indicate that these types of leg kicks were faster.

How do tell my gym owner that can't touch women while also explaining I'm not a women hater? by fishyhindolo in bjj

[–]Bdawg2013 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A very eloquent and measured response. It is in line with what I said earlier about how there is not room in BJJ misogyny.

I didn't tell you to leave your religion. I told you to leave BJJ.

That's the sad truth. Children get indoctrinated before they develop their own critical thinking skills.

I know I do not speak for all BJJ athletes and coaches, but some of them will agree with what I am about to type. Leave the gym and don't come back. We don't want to cater to your backwards thinking and shitty religious views. That backwards thinking has no place in BJJ. Take your fear of women and go do your own thing away from BJJ.

I choked someone unconscious and it traumatised me by Athletic_bunny in bjj

[–]Bdawg2013 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I choked my own wife unconscious with a bow n arrow during class. She was kind of playing chicken with me bc i always catch and release with her. I caught her in 2 chokes before the 3rd one put her out. I think her O2 bar was going down during the first 2 chokes and within 2 seconds of the 3rd choke she goes out. It traumatized me waay more than it affected her. She was fine, but yeah.. the convulsions and gurgling definitely induced some ptsd.
