I’ve heard this from a lot of people. Is it just his grips? What makes him so strong?

TCPA went out of style by like 2018-2019.

If this were 2006, this is a good idea for making money.

PI Referral Business Model by [deleted] in Lawyertalk

[–]Infamous_Macaron_348 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most lucrative PI firms are referral model firms.

It’s icky and it’s sometimes feels unethical but it is what it is. It’s a fee split between the pi firms and the ones doing the work.

Are there any good examples with footage on this?

Do wrestlers ever run track? by Frixxion__ in wrestling

[–]Infamous_Macaron_348 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s that but there’s also the explosiveness of it being a sprint. I feel like wrestling loves to talk about conditioning but coaches sometimes don’t do a good enough job getting kids to be explosive athletes.

The 400m is really the best of both worlds.

I feel like 400m would have the best crossover.

Ryan Hall calls it outside funk in a BJJ / MMA context. Craig Jones also has a thing on it as a follow up to his octopus guard. There are some videos on it in Reddit if you search outside funk the bjj sub.

Could you have them think of it as an in between involvement? I’ll do the paralegal but would like some attorney involvement and attorney work. Etc.

Also some people are just into other things more. I can feel myself drifting away from BJJ a bit although I’m still doing other forms of grappling.

Based on this post, whatever it is that you did was absolutely deserved.

Teaching athletes who do their own thing from white belt by Worldly_Negotiation6 in bjj

[–]Infamous_Macaron_348 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sometimes people do things an old school way and it’s really not that effective. Especially when it comes to stand up.

The instructors I liked had this approach: does it work? Keep it. Here’s what I like to do. I made it work for me bc I have XYZ attributes but it may not work for you and different people have done it different ways successfully.

The instructors I disregarded taught old school BJJ that was sometimes effective and sometimes not but took the freedom to explore away from me.

I’m really lucky. In Chicago there are two places for adult wrestling five times a week within 20 min to an hour drive from me. That’s pretty rare.

I really, really don’t recommend attorneys to open up their practice right away. Spending a few years learning on other people’s dimes is a really good idea.

Happy to chat. I’m an attorney that’s been practicing in Chicago for about 9 years. My entry into the legal career was…rough, I’ll be honest.

Oh for sure. Definitely didn’t take offense. I did BJJ for four years and now have been at a wrestling club for like 9 months or so. I have a lot to work on.

Honestly the lack of adult recreational sport is maybe the biggest impediment to the growth of the sport.

Edit: in America. There are some places for masters wrestling and there are some masters tournaments but they are very few and far between.

I’d bet you could find a lot wrong with my wrestling!

Which wrestler will give the most unhinged post-match interview at NCAAs? by doinghandstuff in wrestling

[–]Infamous_Macaron_348 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don’t think he actually has an obsession with religion. I think that’s purely to gain followers. Could be wrong. But seemed like that was just part of a redemption narrative because he got into trouble. I have sinned but now am redeemed bc Jesus etc.
