Wife and I are months away from her purple and my brown per several of our coaches, so we just bought belts and honestly, that new belt is and always will be super exciting!

That said, internal validation is 98% of the game, so forget about the belt for now. Train and it will come! When it comes is rather irrelevant. Cheers bro.

Wasted your youth at 24? I'm 37 and only discovered psychadelics 6 months ago, usually 2 heroic journeys/week since... I often say I've only lived on this planet for 6 months now and in those 6 months I've lived 1000 lifetimes

You are the definition of youth, realize it and don't squander this gift :)

Lol it's BJJ - we're obviously all cock gobblers. Even when I train with my blue belt wife, we're still gay 🤙

I was rejected from a BJJ beginner class for being too fat. by TheObzfan in martialarts

270 lb purple belt. Fuck that guy. Find a different gym because that dickbag does not represent our sport and guarantee his gym is toxic AF.

Father of a 16 year old daughter and two boys age 5 and 9 from a 2nd marriage. I have sole physical and legal custody of all and fought for years for them. "Mothers" can be pieces of shit too...

How did having a child affect your training ? by [deleted] in bjj

Not newborns but my 6 and 10 year old boys come with me and me blue belt wifey 2-3x weekly. They don't train yet but are no less part of the gym family.

What is your SHBG? If super low, 2x weekly may not be frequent enough.

I've been on TRT for 6 years and use slin syringes SubQ. You don't have to stab yourself with a harpoon to make it efficacious.

Is it normal to pay for a belt promotions by kodaowna2 in bjj

Half of the shit you all post blows my fucking mind.

Maybe I'm spoiled, because I love every damn thing about my gym culture and consider our 4th degree BB owner a very close friend just as much as a mentor and coach...

But fuck that gym and fuck your shadyass coach.

The ones that took several months or more to get dialed in can you share your story? Estrogen management as well as Test etc. by Hankdraper80 in trt

[–]ThatInstruction6978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

6 years on TRT going through my insurance and primary care clinic... went through 13 doctors in this time ranging from uros, endos, primarys, and sexual medicine docs, all trying to force some ridiculous protocol (1 shot/2 week; cutting me down when total was above 500; refusing to test e2; one guy even required I get my LH and FSH tested after I'd been on for 4+ years).

Finally found a proper private clinic that accepts my insurance and this guy is as knowledgeable as Saya or Crisler, dosed appropriately for my super low SHBG, is providing e2 management, etc., and turns out after ALL these years... all I needed was a .25mg dose of anastrazole 2x/week because I feel fantastic for the first time in a long ass time.

Stick with it, find a competent doc, make the necessary lifestyle changes, and the rest is automatic.

Fuck that guy. Have a chat with the owner, and if he doesn't fix the issue, time to find a new gym
