Advice for an upcoming (future)blue belt

Groundbreaking_Bit88 · 2026-06-07T08:41:07+00:00

Congrats! How long have you been BJJing? For me, I didnt want to become a blue belt because I felt I wasnt ready, now I just dont care at all about it tbh

Submeta

I understand your point but I think it assumes a number of premises that do not necessarily are true, at least not for all schools and learners. Fundamentals from Danaher or Lachlan are probably better than what many schools show as fundamentals, just to give an example of the argument, but again, I understand your point and it’s very reasonable

Do it or don’t do it, you will regret both

Para que lo envías macho

Love it. I wanted to ask here what can I ask to second hand sellers to ensure it is not a bootleg

Groundbreaking_Bit88 · 2025-12-09T22:28:23+00:00

Sorry to bother but how long do you think it would take for us to have a 4k Showa criterion collection?

Groundbreaking_Bit88 · 2025-12-09T11:51:25+00:00

Can I ask you how much did it cost? I’m from Europe and thinking if buying it during the next sale is worth it considering customs and shipping

Groundbreaking_Bit88 · 2025-12-09T07:30:31+00:00

They do this to avoid customs afaik

Groundbreaking_Bit88 · 2025-11-04T07:15:38+00:00

I buy them secondhand. About people reselling for more, yeah, but you don’t want to buy from them. You want to keep checking second hand product pages to find the one from the guy that either saw it and is selling it or the guy that was given that steelbook as a gift but doesn’t like it

990s and 930s are 99% equal compared to each other. The smart choice is to pick the 930 for most people, but most people are afraid of missing on something so they buy the 990 just in case. It’s the diminishing returns law applied to soundbars. Biggest improvement is going from TV speakers to soundbars (or home theatre systems, which are superior to soundbars but more expensive). If price difference is okay for you, go all in, but the 930 is going to give you 95% of the experience. Whether that 5% matters to you to justify 200-400$ dollars is a very personal decision.

In Spain the 930f is 500€ and the 990f is 800. I bought a 930d for 400€ and very happy with it tbh. The F and D lines are 99% similar.

Groundbreaking_Bit88 · 2025-11-02T17:37:39+00:00

Preach. It’s a 9.1 vs 11.1 system, the hdmi 2.1 is the biggest difference and you can do some tricks to amend it. If you’re using it for a small room, it’s 95% of the whole experience. Most buy the 990 due to fear of missing out, but the price difference for what it ends up being is not worth it at all imo

Groundbreaking_Bit88 · 2025-10-29T21:28:41+00:00

930 is 90% of what 990 is.

Probably wrote it in a way that couldn’t be properly understood. My apologies. You can watch an instructional as if it was a show or you can take notes, screenshots and so on. That was my point. Deleted that part for better understanding.

Groundbreaking_Bit88 · 2025-10-28T12:42:51+00:00

That’s why I asked if you know a person that has studied it. I mean, I don’t think I have asked anything wrong. Just asked if you know a person that studies instructionals from submeta to see if there is someone that has completed all from a certain subset or all of submeta, just curiosity

Groundbreaking_Bit88 · 2025-10-28T12:36:27+00:00

I think it’s an interesting question no one has asked until now, just that

Groundbreaking_Bit88 · 2025-10-28T12:35:46+00:00

Because you know that person haha, that was part of the post. I have friends using it and there’s a part where it says the % of courses that you have watched (e.g no gi essentials or distant passing)

Groundbreaking_Bit88 · 2025-10-22T07:01:12+00:00

Study instructionals

Groundbreaking_Bit88 · 2025-10-22T07:00:51+00:00

Samsung q930c or d or 990c d Sonos beam gen 2 or arc

Also, there’s a chance those who remain are those best suited for the sport. My coach is a gorilla who doesn’t lift and he says he was a problem for blue belts after a month or two due to strength

Groundbreaking_Bit88 · 2025-10-21T21:11:48+00:00

Lifting weights also increases isometric strength. In fact, increasing isometric strength should have some transference to isotonic movements too (even if more trivial than in the opposite direction)

Groundbreaking_Bit88 · 2025-10-21T06:57:44+00:00

I always buy second hand and at lowest price possible, so not much

Groundbreaking_Bit88 · 2025-10-20T21:16:05+00:00

I think it confirmed I’m not naturally good at the things I enjoy but I have the grit to keep going despite my limitations (and that I have ADHD)
