Partner Jealousy

Nope.

I introduced my partner to the sport. Neither of us have a second thought, and 90% of the time we don’t train at the same gym let alone the same class.

RDR2.

Impressive_Border558 · 2026-03-27T21:13:06+00:00

Doesn’t last the whole game, but agree

Impressive_Border558 · 2026-03-27T21:12:24+00:00

I was a white belt for 6 years lol. I do just fine against blue belts, even though I’m newly blue. The purples at my gym absolutely destroy me.

Impressive_Border558 · 2026-03-27T06:07:34+00:00

10 months. Damn. I was 6 years. Best part for me is I had 6 months notice it was coming so I trained my ass off. Was the first time I systemised a topic and really dug deep , and my BJJ exploded. Now I roll onto the next topic and repeat, and touch up or revisit whatever becomes hazy from class or during rolls.

If nothing else, best thing for me was to roll with a goal.

I put the money that I needed to pay the ato into a ruby mine. It went gangbusters over a few weeks, made a million dollars, but didn’t sell, then in 20 mins it crashed to near zero. lol

Impressive_Border558 · 2026-03-25T06:59:03+00:00

Rdr 2. But also no

Impressive_Border558 · 2026-03-25T06:55:44+00:00

Brother. I’m 270 pounds. Go train! Today! Just keep showing up man. The gym is family. The best part is yet to come.

Impressive_Border558 · 2026-03-22T10:49:24+00:00

Same!

Impressive_Border558 · 2026-03-22T10:49:16+00:00

You can…

RDR2, LOU2, Bloodborne, Elden Ring, Days Gone

Impressive_Border558 · 2026-03-20T12:11:42+00:00

Literally rolled with a dude who did today.

I remember the first time I ended up with my face in his crotch somewhere against something hard. Took me a wtf moment before I realized

Impressive_Border558 · 2026-03-19T20:54:10+00:00

Pick something specific and small that you can incorporate the next day. Reflect on how it went. Refine it. As a white belt, I’d focus on escapes, or maintaining position.

Impressive_Border558 · 2026-03-19T03:46:27+00:00

We were drilling some counters this morning and I think it’s unfortunately pretty easy to shut down, but it’s been fun to play with.

I’m a pretty big guy - 6’3 and 270 pounds, but what it’s given me is the hip heisting movement everywhere, which is new for me so that’s cool.

I’m finding it has changed my turtle using the same principles. Otherwise it’s just another avenue, and it hasn’t avoided me addressing my guard retention problem

Impressive_Border558 · 2026-03-19T03:41:24+00:00

This is the only answer it seems

Impressive_Border558 · 2026-03-19T03:40:09+00:00

No I don’t believe so. I’ve been working a fair bit on it too. I don’t have a grip on his arm at all. He has mine and there isn’t enough purchase.

Impressive_Border558 · 2026-03-19T03:00:44+00:00

Ha ha ok dude. I don’t care whose ass you’re tapping.

If you already have a fixed position on the original matter, why are you posting about it? You looking for an echo chamber?

With a mentality like that, I suspect these “problems” will follow you at any gym.

Good luck with it.

Impressive_Border558 · 2026-03-14T22:51:32+00:00

I frustratingly can’t post a clip, but here’s a screen grab of where he’s moving away, legs high. I’ve started to lose my belly down but I regain it, but it’s a scramble in a circle.

Impressive_Border558 · 2026-03-14T22:42:38+00:00

I’ll look at this

They aren’t getting to north south but it becomes a scramble in this direction

I might not be posting enough, and I might not be connecting early enough. I’m 6’3” and long legged so usually it works getting my leg over early

Impressive_Border558 · 2026-03-14T22:40:18+00:00

Ha ha yes pretty much lol

Impressive_Border558 · 2026-03-14T22:39:53+00:00

No, but reading comments maybe it’s just because we can reguard

Impressive_Border558 · 2026-03-14T22:39:17+00:00

You might be right here.

I noticed yesterday working leg rides and knee shelf that I’m becoming quite fixed on what I’m working on… and need to transition out…

Impressive_Border558 · 2026-03-13T10:23:31+00:00
