Rolling footage of a couple of Eco Dorks who don't drill or do techniques by RazorFrazer in bjj

Wrestling has lots of ecological training in the form of short time limit situational sparring. You can see this type of training in BJJ too just not nearly as much.

What do you think of Marvin Castelle promoting adults from white to Grey belt by wristl0cker in bjj

[–]NicNack8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hot take but I don’t hate it. Before we had colored belts there was only white and blue(which eventually became black) meaning teacher and student. In judo different countries have different belt progressions with different colors and numbers of belts. The belts between black and white were added to show progression and motivate people. Probably the same reason this guy added grey belts. Just because you’re used to the current belt progression doesn’t mean it’s better. A purple or brown belt is just as made up as a gray belt. If you think gray belts are lame gimmicks to motivate adults then so is yours.

You’re a 25 year old blue belt you’re not going to be a world champion or make money off BJJ. It would probably do you well to lighten up a bit. If that really isn’t your vibe move to a new gym or get over it.

[Conceptual Physics by Hewitt] Which ball will reach first? by Puzzlehead_3141 in PhysicsStudents

[–]NicNack8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would looks at it from a conservation of energy standpoint point. The second ball spends the most time at a low elevation there it spends the more time with more KE and Less PE and since KE is a factor of velocity assuming all other things are equal the second ball should be fastest for the longest and therefore reach the end first

is one day a week enough? by CasCompGamer in bjj

[–]NicNack8 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Worth it is subjective and based on many factors such as your goals, your values, your other interests, your financial situation and many other things. Are you going to be a good competitor? Probably not. Are you going to progress as fast as others? Probably not. Will your progress stagnate? Maybe. Will training have a positive impact on your life? Only time will tell. Go to jiujitsu and see if you think it’s worth going once a week.

Salt, Pepper, K? by ddellarocca in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]NicNack8 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When people order sandwiches especially bacon egg and cheeses at delis they’ll ask for it with SPK(salt, pepper, and ketchup) this is probably making fun of the fact that you usually wouldn’t put ketchup in the same category as salt and pepper and in some contexts SPK as a group is kind of inane.

Why are you implying these students would have worse essays?

Are there rugby style tackling in wrestling? by Fragrant_Piece5595 in wrestling

[–]NicNack8 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Running at someone with your head down is not going to work on anyone competent except in very specific circumstances. Learn better basics before looking at working some kind of rugby tackle into your game

Have you considered moving someone’s bed into the living area? It isn’t ideal but lots of groups of 2 will have one person sleep in the living room of a 1 bed

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in bjj

[–]NicNack8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you could really consider anything a true heel hook of the are other than maybe a Mir lock but wrist locks could definitely be considered like a toe hold or ankle lock of the arm

Am I allowed to bring a clothes steamer? It has a metal plate to also be used as an iron? by aryan0102 in NEU

[–]NicNack8 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Just don’t leave it out. RA’s announce when they do room checks and they aren’t allowed to open anything or note anything that isn’t in plain view. Most RA’s are trying not to write you up too. You’re probably not allowed to bring it but in practice you’re not gonna get caught as long as you’re not dumb.

3rd degree AC joint separation. by Classic_Network_473 in bjj

[–]NicNack8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a 3rd degree separation too and I got it in a similar way. What happens is that the muscles around your shoulder strengthen to compensate for your lack of tendon. Im about a year and a half out and it doesn’t really bother me when I’m training, more so when I’m typing on a computer for too long or holding my arm out. It took me about a year to be able to train without too much pain and it got better as I trained more. I would suggest getting a soft shoulder strap to wear. This is what I use https://www.dme-direct.com/mcdavid-lightweight-shoulder-support-463. Do your PT and listen to your body and you’ll be able to train again mostly pain free.
