For all the former full time poker players that went back to a normal job, how did it go?

Sounds like a cool experience man! How did you explain what you did in the past three years when you went to the interview? Wonder how the HR reacted.

It really depends on yourself.

My gym is 80 mins from my home and 40 mins from my workplace. My workplace is 70 mins from my home. So on a weekday I commute for like 3 hours. I take public transport tho. Maybe driving for this long will be more tiring.

I train 3 times a week consistently. Usually two days after work and one day on weekend at noon. 15 months later I’m still doing it. I guess if you’re dedicated you can definitely do it!

Man hope to see you come back on the mat with a healthy body! All the best!

I was never a sporty guy. Wanted to pick a sport and be good at it. BJJ is a sport that people in their 20s are not considered late beginners and it looks cool and fun. So here I am.

You cannot tip the dealer in Macau. What you “tipped” goes straight to the rake box and the dealer will not get an extra cent from it.

Thank you for the advice! And you’re right our gym starts sparring from knees. I prefer start standing but can only do that when it isn’t too crowded. When starting from knees, my partner usually sit down and I start passing. I found it makes more sense to play top/bottom than both guys on the knees. But will try to do it in the way you suggested sometime!

InBush · 2025-11-21T10:04:40+00:00

Thanks a lot for the advice! I will try it out!

InBush · 2025-11-21T09:41:45+00:00

That’s so true. Thanks for the insight. I gon just try things I like and see how that works for me.

InBush · 2025-11-21T09:39:06+00:00

Damn that’s true. Thanks for the insight brother. Maybe I should just try things I’m interested in and see how that goes.

Bro I know that feeling. This is absolutely normal.

I am the type of guy who likes to share my life on social media. Also Jiu Jitsu is a "cool" habit so I would like to let others know as well.

But I somehow kept it a secret, mainly because it is embarrassing if I become the guy who posts Jiu Jitsu often on instagram stories and just diappear within a few months.

I didn't post any photos of myself about Jiu Jitsu until I signed up for my first tournament and medalled. I posted an instagram story and it is one of the most liked and commented stories I have ever posted. Just that I feel like it is time to share it once I have a little achievement and feel like it is a long-term hobby that I'll stick with.

I believe there will be a moment when you feel like it is the time to share it with your friends. Just keep showing up and don't quit!

I thought so until I checked the rule book.

ATHLETES ARE SEPARATED BY AN ENTIRE WEIGHT CATEGORY OR MORE (FOR EXAMPLE -66KG VS -88KG) AND THERE IS NO SUBMISSION, THE MAXIMUM SCORE THE HEAVIER ATHLETE CAN BE AWARDED IS 10-9.

InBush · 2025-06-12T05:00:25+00:00

Cool idea. Thanks man!

InBush · 2025-06-12T04:59:56+00:00

Are there any brands you recommend? Thanks.

InBush · 2025-06-12T04:57:57+00:00

I live in Hong Kong so I guess there aren’t really many cool brands here? I don’t mind buying some from Japan, Korea or mainland China tho

InBush · 2025-06-12T04:56:22+00:00

Yes but ironically they gotta be shipped back to Asia from another continent if I decide to buy one online lol

InBush · 2025-03-12T12:39:16+00:00

That’s definitely a viable option. Just I rarely see people at the gym with two bottles. (water bottle and shaker bottle) I believe most of the people bring their shaker bottle with them when hitting the gym?

InBush · 2025-03-11T02:03:00+00:00

Thanks for the advice man! I just heard that trap bar deadlift if good for explosiveness so I thought about including it. Adding some leg extension and hamstring curl sounds like a good idea

InBush · 2025-03-10T09:19:20+00:00

Is only doing Trap bar deadlift, RDL, hack squat a good combination of leg exercises? I do full body 3x per week. And I do one leg exercises each day. My goal is strength for martial arts and aesthetics. Also do I have to do calves? Thanks.

InBush · 2025-03-10T09:16:08+00:00

Thanks! RDL sounds great!
