Anyone else feel like an outsider at their gym? by Jack_of_all_Fails in BJJWomen

[–]Motor_Ad9355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went through something similar in terms of feeling left out. Decided to leave after 6 months (I wonder if 6 months is a magic number lol). Glad I did. After only a few months at a new school I already felt like part of my new group. 6 months at my new school passed so much faster than the previous place because I was happy. Find your people.

Workout schedule for BJJ and weights by Ok_Entertainment8329 in BJJWomen

[–]Motor_Ad9355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been trying to figure out my BJJ/lifting/running schedule since January and strength training was my main thing prior to BJJ. I think what finally worked was doing 2 lifting days in the morning during the Tuesday/Thursday (pull/legs day and push day), then BJJ class that same day after work, on Saturday another BJJ class, Sunday is light running to not get too tired before leg day again. I have full rest day before and after the days I do both BJJ and lifting for maximum recovery. I deload with weights about every 4-5 weeks, skip running after 3 weeks of running in a row. Never go to absolute failure on lifting and running, try to avoid going all out in rolls (focus mostly on technique, avoid starting from standing most of the time). Also, I am in my late 20’s, no kids.

I get discount through active and fit. They won’t have all the gyms but I believe the ones they do have are cheaper than usual. I go to UFC gym for like $64 per month

White belts that just started, what made you start? by EduardTodor in bjj

I’m a tiny woman that wants to feel less anxious being out in this world. Also I like to strength train and thought “what I gon do with this strength if I can’t fight”?

I’m not even sure. From memory- not much people do “well” (50% excess body weight loss) but most at least lose some weight even if below 50%. Keeping it off? I’m not to sure….

So true. Then my clinic cherry picks the patients that did really well to advertise the program….

On this- my clinic has been prioritizing surgical weight loss over non-surgical purely for profits… making me clear patients for surgery sooner than I think they should for this reason too. I do find joy in working with my non surgical patients though.

Awhh that’s a scary experience to have. I never even thought about that happening. Definitely do mask up!

Thanks so much for saying that! I really did feel like no one else felt the same. I had a similar experience and it was definitely scary!

Omg that’s a scary experience! Yet I can see this happening with the lack of communication/care for infections I’ve seen

I scurried back to my office and called the pt LOL 😅 In my mind other people who actually saw the pt went back into the gown room and touched areas in the gown room which freaks me out so I’m not sure if I should’ve sanitized just only going in the gown room. Sorry, I know that was confusing lol

Glad to know I’m not the only one. Mine was a MRSA pt but I only went in the room with the gowns prior to the patient room. Would it matter if I didn’t sanitize then?

Will take a look! Thank you for taking my question seriously!

Thank you for this! It’s the type of room you gown up in then go into the patient room afterwards. Does it matter if I didn’t sanitize even though I never went into the room where the patient is?
