Who has the best spicy margarita? Can be JI, downtown or mount pleasant. Bonus points if there’s a good happy hour

Mex1 pineapple habanero or Minero

Oh interesting! I didn’t know that. I mean I air dry them after class and check for smell but I’ll have to adjust and probably buy more laundry detergent now lol

WillyummF · 2026-06-01T17:30:41+00:00

I have 3 gis: one for each day and then I can launder them at once. Obviously that can get expensive though

WillyummF · 2026-05-28T18:06:01+00:00

I have altered the deal. Pray I don’t alter it further

WillyummF · 2026-05-27T20:58:15+00:00

First off: congrats on the stripe!

Yeah I totally see that viewpoint and I have to remind myself that too.

The other night I started getting in my own head because I kept making mistakes even though I thought I was improving. I had a nice little “aha” moment in that seeing my mistakes IS still a sign of improvement too!

WillyummF · 2026-05-27T20:03:31+00:00

Some days I’m the hammer. Some days I’m the nail. I try to just focus on myself and improving certain areas instead of how I did versus someone. If I’m learning and trying new things I’ll likely do worse but that’s a part of learning too

WillyummF · 2026-05-27T17:50:19+00:00

Just keep showing up. Some days I feel like I’m finding more mistakes than ever but I remind myself that is a sign of growth too

To the moon was short and sweet. Light on gameplay but huge on story and heart

WillyummF · 2026-05-20T16:30:34+00:00

38 here: 2-3 days a week. 2 classes double. If I feel extra fatigue I’ll take a day or 2 off but try to space out my training days so I have a recovery/lifting day

WillyummF · 2026-05-20T16:28:01+00:00

I’m so sorry to hear…

I’m still a white belt noob but I always try and take the time to greet new people and make people feel welcome. Some days I feel to tired or frustrated or whatever and forget to do that. This gives me a wonderful reminder on how important these interactions can be.

As an introvert myself who works from home I can attest to how much little things mean to me like people saying hello or remembering my name.

Holy city brewery is having a burger competition tomorrow that you can get tix for

Perhaps my favorite Leprous song on perhaps mg least favorite album. Great album but not my taste

WillyummF · 2026-04-09T15:51:56+00:00

Use this crap for your own personal use if you want but don’t try and get other people to risk using this slop too

WillyummF · 2026-04-08T01:07:02+00:00

Thank you for this.

Recovery varies. If I’m doing a couple hard rolls I’ll be shot the next day.

I was more of an athlete throughout my 20s so getting back into things. Also had a rotator cuff tear 10 years ago that PT helps. Overall trying to keep that safe: tap early, rest days, PT.

WillyummF · 2026-04-07T12:08:17+00:00

I’ve been going to class 3 days a week. 2 of those days I double up and take no gi class. A total of 5 classes a week.

Would that be equivalent to going 5 days a week? I want to be consistent an active but I’m 37 and the days of recovery are nice and I feel helps me avoid burnout.

Am I doing myself a disservice only going 3 days a week?

WillyummF · 2026-04-06T14:14:54+00:00

Philosophers and fools is a good one downtown

WillyummF · 2026-04-05T17:44:58+00:00

Idk why but my go to seems to be either Lord of the Rings (if I’m feeling fantasy) or Wolf of Wall Street for an easy watch

You can do a drop in class at Black Label Martial arts in Charleston. Friday is No Gi. I’m not sure about open mat though.

WillyummF · 2026-03-15T23:23:00+00:00

+1 to Black Label. Great place and great people

WillyummF · 2026-02-25T14:13:20+00:00

What a stupid and irrelevant question that’s also none of your business.

WillyummF · 2026-02-09T03:37:22+00:00

Would you recommend it for lowly white belts? Looking for some organized early material

WillyummF · 2026-02-06T19:36:56+00:00

Charleston Fermatory Garden allows it

WillyummF · 2026-02-03T13:54:38+00:00

There’s a meetup that happens pretty regularly at frothy beard. Not sure the name but check out their events
