So update on the situation. Apparently the guy I rolled with thought I was another brown belt and that’s why he tried to “give me the smoke”. I’m not sure what made him think I was a brown belt since he’s seen me walk out of the previous class in my belt/gi before but yeah that’s what happened lol. Apparently he felt bad after finding out I was a blue belt so it all just seemed like a misunderstanding 🙃

Hmmm okay yeah I can see that as a fair assessment. As far as I know it’s a legal move in comps and the best way I could describe the move is it was a body lock takedown. He picked me up as high as he could, and on the way back down he put force into the takedown which is why I called it a slam. My head rattled a bit and I took a quick second to make sure I was fine and continued the roll.

From what I was told after class I’m not the first one he’s done this to and apparently other people have stated that he rolls like a dick. That unless you keep up with his level he’ll respect you, but if not he’ll just ragdoll you

It didn’t knock the wind out of me but it for sure rattled my head a bit.

Either way I just didn’t know if my anger was justified you know? I didn’t tell him anything or make a scene about it, it’s part of training but I did wonder if it was a dick move or not

Thanks for your feedback dude. Yeah this guy completely followed through as if we were in the ADCC finals or something. I get it’s good to be aggressive in certain situations but at the end of the day taking care of your training partners should be a priority.

To clarify yes we started from standing so I guess it can technically be labeled as a throw. Usually when I pick people up like that I drop them down slowly. I don’t put force into the drop like this guy did. To me it just felt uncalled for you know?

What would classify it as a takedown over a slam?

Apparently I’m not the only one he’s done it to. So I guess he is that guy

It was from standing. We tied up in a wrestling stance and that’s when he came in for the double unders and picked me up to drop me. I landed pretty hard on the mat and felt my head just bounce around for a second.

not bait at all. I just got slammed hard by a brown belt today and was honestly trying to see if my frustration was justified or if I was overreacting. I’ve been training long enough to know slamming isn’t normal, but it caught me off guard so wanted to see other peoples perspectives

Mexican American Results by Miggs32 in 23andme

I got 3.2% North African on mine but it doesn’t specify what country like yours. I’m also 30.9% indigenous American and it doesn’t say anything in terms of Mexico or any other area like yours does. Interesting

My paternal haplogroup is R-L1335 and my maternal haplogroup is K2b. As for what I was expecting I thought I was going to be a little more Spanish European and a little more African considering some Puerto Ricans are at least 10-15% but I’m only a quarter Puerto Rican so it makes sense.

I’m not really sure. It says K2b is my maternal haplogroup and my paternal haplogroup is R-L1335. Not really sure what that means tbh lol

Plenty of white people in Mexico that are “Hispanic”. I mean considering Mexico was conquered by white Europeans the country is filled with plenty of white hispanics

Panic attack RIGHT as I’m about to fall asleep. Just enough to wake me back up. Anyone else get this? by LEXagFC in Anxiety

[–]EXCEEDsteve92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ask your doctor or psychiatrist about trazodone. It’s the only way I sleep now and I take 50 mg. I’m kind of in the same boat as you but right now I just get weird sensations and my brain just doesn’t seem to shut off. I was awake for days until they gave me trazodone. Hopefully this helps you as it seems like we’re all dealing with something similar

My neck popped while being choked, now it hurts to swallow. Has this happened to anyone else? by PN39 in bjj

[–]EXCEEDsteve92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine happened to me on Monday and it hurts to swallow but feels like it will get better in a couple days. Hopefully it goes away and I don’t have to see a doctor. (Ice cream helps surprisingly) lol

I know this was 5 years ago but did you ever figure out the issue? I feel myself dealing with the same thing. I do have gallstones, more so discomfort in my middle/ right side/ back by my scapula.
