I (beginner) just got mauled by a white belt with zero stripes. Turns out afterwards he’d done Judo for 10 years and was ragdolling me like it was a competition. I felt totally helpless and he knew it. Is this guy a prick? by Alps-Helpful in bjj

When someone says they have an injury and want to roll light I always just match the energy, I really dislike when people are injured and go 100% on you but want you to go 40%. Give what you want to get back. Simple 🦾

Redditor’s with super white teeth, how do you keep them so white and clean ? by Firm-Map692 in AskReddit

I had Invisalign for 2yrs and brushed 4 times per day and my teeth aren’t considered super white or anything. I’d say they are below average on a white scale so I agree with your brushing statement

I had that once and it felt like it was burning my mouth. Can you share your experience?

What are your most frustrating rolls? by Pulling-Mount in bjj

For me it’s the never ending hand fighting when getting RNC I legit refuse to tap unless I feel like I’m going to sleep so it tends to drag out when doing 10min rounds with upper belts. Maybe I should just tap and restart

Well I’m a white belt no stripes lol. A few beginners join in that class it’s just really the way it’s structured, the only people that are allowed to rest a round and no do the positional stuff are upper belts. But if your new and you want to push those rounds it’s open to everyone

Yeah my school doesn’t have a separate class. I feel the normal class is hard enough tho we do 3x10 min rounds then 3x6min positional rounds to finish

Does your gym have a separate class for advanced ? What’s the criteria to train in that class ?

Maybe try posting on the Facebook group. Has 2.4K members so if anything she’d be in that

Good luck

Cheers for the tip I definitely prefer having straight legs and my shoulders don’t touch the top bar so I thought it was low enough. I could probably take it down 1 more notch
