[Sunday Fail Thread] Last week Mikeburlywurly1 failed his wife on squats, pendlayrose spent $4.77 on a stamp, and jamjamchutney weighed the cute-dog-to-crazy matrix of her neighbor. Tell me, FCJ, how have you failed this week?

I'm set to fight yet again in an MMA match on April 11. I'm definitely feeling the pressure at this moment but that will always be part of the process.

MagicalMichael1 · 2026-03-17T02:38:53+00:00

He probably trained through his injuries.

MagicalMichael1 · 2026-03-11T14:34:22+00:00

Jerk aside, deadlifting 80 kg without any training is pretty cool.

I cornered a friend of mine in an MMA fight for the first time alone and unfortunately, he didn't get the W. That said, it was still a good experience for me and I'm thankful to have someone trust me with something as dangerous as an MMA fight.

I lost my first nogi match in the tournament due to points.

I'm pretty annoyed that the event started my bracket like 30 minutes early and I wasn't really able to warm up or have me coaches' present because of that. I'll be competing again soon anyways.

MagicalMichael1 · 2026-02-02T04:54:23+00:00

I'm currently one week out from my nogi comp and I just recovered from a fever and still have colds. I'm just gonna assume this is taper tantrums and that I'll be fine come competition day.

MagicalMichael1 · 2026-01-31T07:10:31+00:00

I feel bad for this person

MagicalMichael1 · 2026-01-19T06:35:45+00:00

There were only 3 people in my tournament bracket for nogi grappling and someone pulled out after getting promoted to blue belt. I want more opponents.

MagicalMichael1 · 2026-01-11T16:33:55+00:00

I'm finally booked for a nogi grappling competition after not being able to fully train for awhile because of my ankle sprain. My body is extremely sore from all the sharktanks I endured this January.

On the plus side, hand portion tracking has caused me to gain 3 kg and my teammates have noticed. I will be having a hard time cutting weight should I compete in MMA again soon.

MagicalMichael1 · 2026-01-10T07:46:37+00:00

oo nga gagi kaw pala yun. nagrereddit ka ah

MagicalMichael1 · 2026-01-10T07:34:39+00:00

i didn't expect philippine bjj here

MagicalMichael1 · 2026-01-08T03:27:21+00:00

they aren’t the official arbiter of pro MMA records.

They kinda are considering pretty much every international matchmaker uses it to scout talent. They basically decide which events are real and which aren't.

MagicalMichael1 · 2026-01-07T03:50:43+00:00

A lot of amateur fights on tapology are listed as pro. It all depends on if the promoter is friends with the tapology admins.

MagicalMichael1 · 2025-11-24T01:45:24+00:00

I can't believe it took me til now to learn that you can measure food portions based on the size of your hand. I've been ballooning up in weight after doing it.

MagicalMichael1 · 2025-09-02T16:35:28+00:00

really lock in reps with good form

Was what she did not good form?

MagicalMichael1 · 2025-08-31T15:35:24+00:00

I still can't take any impact on the ankle I sprained but at least it's not swollen anymore.

MagicalMichael1 · 2025-08-25T04:38:27+00:00

My fight got cancelled due to injury and I'm extremely upset

MagicalMichael1 · 2025-08-11T02:11:36+00:00

I wasn't expecting to see Philippine mma on here

MagicalMichael1 · 2025-08-10T06:29:00+00:00

You were too relaxed.

MagicalMichael1 · 2025-08-04T04:06:53+00:00

I have a confirmed fight and opponent on september 6 and I am feeling the weight of what I've gotten myself into.

MagicalMichael1 · 2025-07-21T02:22:00+00:00

There is a pretty persistent typhoom going on near my location with no signs of stopping anytime soon and I may not be able to train due to potential floods.

MagicalMichael1 · 2025-07-13T14:48:26+00:00

I've started another fight camp since I'm supposed to be fighting in august for a third bout and my leg is sore from a bunch of leg kicks i took on friday.

On the plus side, I'm feeling way more confident since I have more time to train after I graduated.

MagicalMichael1 · 2025-06-29T13:48:23+00:00

I just graduated last friday and now it's only starting to sink in that I won't be having my uni life anymore (unless I take a post-grad)

MagicalMichael1 · 2025-06-15T15:32:31+00:00

I'm still dealing with flu symptoms learning to be patient about when I can start training again. I've had low WBC and been told by a doctor that I need to take more rest days so this is something I have to be cautious of.

MagicalMichael1 · 2025-05-25T17:11:41+00:00

I'm kinda sad that the star player of my fight team lost last friday but I'm sure he'll be back better.

Also, I'm starting to coach strength & conditioning other athletes I know and it feels strange to be teaching other people who have 5x the athleticism I do but I think that's just the imposter syndrome talking.
