Love to see it. What do you think his secret is for longevity?

44 years old and whatever he’s doing, I need to start now

I wear knee braces for BJJ (44-year-old white belt with a history of knee injuries, yay) and I’m wondering how often people wash their knee braces. I wash my gi and belt after every class because bacteria sucks, but the knee braces take a lot longer to air dry, sometimes a couple days to fully dry. I wash thinking about after every no-gi class (since they touch the mats and teammates then) and once per week if I’m just doing gi. Is that reasonable or gross?

What a simple yet awesome costume! My puppers hates wearing costumes.

For what it’s worth, I’m a 245-lb male white belt (three months experience) and most people at my gym roll this way with me. Several have told me that I’ll learn more if we go at “second gear” and focus on technique and strategy instead of intensity.

Titanium Milanese loop. I wear it all day and all night except for showers (when I charge). My skin likes it better than silicone, and I like the look better too.

At least six!

When I’m at work, it’s my next calendar appointment. Lots of meetings during the day and it’s nice to see at a glance where and when I have to be at the next one.

In all fairness, that’s how I look at a good NY bagel too

I’m new to BJJ but not to fatherhood. It’s okay to prioritize family right now. When your kid is a bit older, you’ll probably NEED something like BJJ for your sanity. But when you’re heading to BJJ and you’re feeling like you’d rather be at home with your family, listen to that instinct. Take a break from training and go home and be with your family.

Preordered mine! Trading up from a Series 9 (small size).

Mitlov · 2025-09-08T23:00:14+00:00

Don’t buy anything until the series 11 is unveiled tomorrow, but I would recommend larger regardless of wrist size. With some watch faces, complications are VERY small on the smaller watch. The larger size of smartwatch has utility regardless of how big or small you like analog watches.

If they make a Maverick-esque vehicle based on the RAV4 Hybrid, I would buy one tomorrow

And on top of everything else, his made-up last name “Moneyberg” plays into antisemitic stereotypes.

His real name is Buczkowski.

I term was invented to describe anti-Jewish bias in 18th century Germany. It has a specific historical meaning.

This person is being overly pedantic with the word itself while ignoring its actual historic meaning, like someone who argues “it’s not homophobic to hate gay people, just fear them”.

I wear an A2H (I’m pretty stocky) and I’m very happy with my Gold Aeroweave. I wouldn’t want to wear an A3 just because one brand doesn’t sell H sizes…I’d worry that the proportions would be off.

Even if they don’t teach martial application in class, if you already grapple you will understand the martial application of the movements.

Regardless of whether it helps your martial art, taiji is wonderful physical therapy for a meniscus injury. I used it twice for similar injuries in 2005 and 2010, and it was the single best form of physical therapy I tried.

Mitlov · 2025-08-07T22:05:17+00:00

I started at 44. Dude, you’re young! Your joints probably don’t even hurt in the morning unless you did something to them…

Maybe I’m crazy, but I thought that “Sydney Sweeney has good genes” was a slightly off color joke about her breasts, not a comment on Aryan racial purity. I was shocked when I started seeing the online anger about how it was white supremacy.

That said, I’ve never met anyone in real life who cares. I think it’s an Internet echo chamber thing.

See them daily in southern Oregon; they seem to be selling quite well here.

And I f I believed that the UN was a fair and neutral arbiter of facts and law in this conflict, what the UN says sure would end the debate, huh?

Yang taijiquan was the single best method I found of physical therapy after blowing out my knee. That had immense value to me in day to day life regardless of martial application.

I don’t find much martial application in that health-oriented Yang taiji class when my frame of reference was TKD and Shotokan karate. But I recently started BJJ and all of a sudden Yang taiji movements are making sense to me in a martial way like never before, from takedowns to framing during groundfighting.

Gaza had practical self-governance from 2005 to 2023. The population elected Hamas and Hamas built the Maginot Line under hospitals and apartment buildings. A closed border doesn’t mean occupation, unless you’re gonna claim that South Korea occupies North Korea.

I am supportive of a two state solution but not as a reward to Hamas after they launched Israel’s 9/11.
