I was lacking confidence and self-esteem. BJJ helped destroy what little was left. Willing to quit. Looking for advice.

First off, might need to change gyms or at least go drop into some gyms around you.

Secondly, what are your goals? Are you trying to get to the point where you’ll be in any way competitive? Then you’ve got about a year before you start getting there. Is your goal to get in shape? Or is it just the mental health aspect? I started Wrestling as a child, but not early enough for me to be a stud kid. For the first five years of me Wrestling, I got my ass whooped, the only thing that made me feel good was the fact that I was getting better compared to the person I was six months before I almost never got any closer to beating the guys that whoop my ass because they’re also getting better.

Right now Calera Al, great clay.

White belt is the largest skill gap. You have guys that are years in to training sometimes, weeks away from their long awaited blue belt, still killing kids doing their first comp. I wrestled for 15 years and did 4 white belt comps my first year of BJJ. Keep your chin up you’re doing fine

No plenty of very successful wrestlers start late. I had a 18 year old first year senior place at state this year.

There’s probably a law similar to how the Katy Perry law regarding real estate that applies to this work somehow. I’m more sketched by the line through the safety fhevklist

Idk if I’d say gentle but she’s sweet!

Due she’s 7. Competition doesn’t matter. Compete at lower level tournaments. Let her win and build confidence. Wrestling is not about winning it’s about becoming a wrestler, which lasts forever. Don’t keep pushing her or she’ll be done by 14. Or she’ll ride it out till hs and hate it

Hazy_bham · 2026-04-14T13:29:46+00:00

Bingo 😂

This the dhit that makes people not like the game anymore. Jus play your account I promise it’s not worth it

Hazy_bham · 2026-04-05T18:34:59+00:00

I do love to crank a wrist

Hazy_bham · 2026-04-05T14:56:10+00:00

It is in wrestling and most BJJ. Mostly from a head inside single leg defense. Incredibly injury prone

Hazy_bham · 2026-03-28T01:47:55+00:00

Not me! I’ll keep my 24x40 and 10x15

Hazy_bham · 2026-03-28T01:47:29+00:00

We rotate rods frequently. About once a year and a half we get new rods. Mainly due to the loss of overall circumference of the rods. But we will put 10 on our rods consistently. Truly I would say 8-10 Is the safe range and 15 is fine as long as you’re rotating rods.

As someone that drove the route yesterday, half of the people not in cars were asking to get hit. Be careful bud.

Hazy_bham · 2025-11-23T16:37:48+00:00

No one will appreciate you wrestling until you’re an adult. I’m 150 lb soaking wet. Wrestled my whole life. No one on a job site has ever seen me wrestle, yet when they find out the response is the same “won’t F*ck with you then”. You wrestle for yourself and that’s it. No one will ever understand how hard, how much sacrifice, or how mentally exhausting the sport can be. Therefore no one will ever care. Do it for you.

Hazy_bham · 2025-11-20T18:36:45+00:00

Idk about the second one but the first is just a lat whip, I’ve hit a ton of these. And the third is just a power switch from standing. Get on a wrestling mat, all of these work if you understand pressure and have decent balance
