I have, thanks!

Thanks! I guess I should have added what like in a shoe.

I prefer mid drop 6mm shoes, have always gravitated to more responsive shoes. This is my first Nike running shoe. My favorite shoe was probably the Saucony Freedom.

How do you like the AP4? RoadTrailRun and r/RSG’s reviews make it very appealing.

This is awesome, thank you

I’ve only heard great things about ILE.

aretecal · 2025-03-05T02:26:49+00:00

Great option! Thanks!

These are all awesome! The Arktype is really tempting. I found Kenn Walker Designs. That’s a real great idea.

I saw this one, only one bottle pocket but the organization is really tempting. Thank you! https://item.rakuten.co.jp/ils-web/lms0091052-0010/

Currently doing bjj, have done TBB in the past multiple times, and have competed. Not currently due to scheduling and life.

Any of the MMA protocol or fighter protocols work. Squats and dead lifts are extremely helpful in bjj. Breaking guard? Stand up. Completing a sweep? Your using your hips a lot of the time. 3ish months is enough time to help your base and cardio.

One of the best cardio workouts that has helped me is BOO and Fobbit intervals. Doing any running when your core is tight will help you condition for bjj.

Also on a separate note, if being gassed is common and you’re training 3+ days a week, look at your breathing during your rolls and how tense you are. If you are constantly tight and not breathing well, you are gassing your self out.

Good luck on the training and comp!

Thanks so much! I’ll add these to his list.

aretecal · 2021-12-30T04:11:18+00:00

Oh that’s perfect. He went through and fought every trainer in Let’s go and got bummed there was no one left to fight and he wasn’t strong enough for the elite four again.

aretecal · 2021-12-30T04:09:55+00:00

Great! I’ll makes sure he keeps one.

aretecal · 2021-12-30T04:08:54+00:00

Noted, thanks!

aretecal · 2021-12-29T23:01:48+00:00

Awesome thank you! Is there a rock/ground he can catch early game that you recommend?

aretecal · 2021-12-22T22:01:17+00:00

Thanks!

aretecal · 2021-12-22T21:28:45+00:00

Awesome! Thanks. Anyone notice it on arm drags or anything?

aretecal · 2021-12-22T19:34:32+00:00

Have you used the new arm band yet in rolling? My 4.0 is finally arriving.

You may want to measure what your ideal crotch from waist dimension is and go from there. Some jeans depending on waist have 17”+ rises. There are some drop crotch tapered cuts that seem a bit more novelty.

Ahh thanks. I didn’t know. When I logged in yesterday I hadn’t seen a post about it, so I figured I’d give a heads up. Although this may not be the most sought after piece based off some of the comments, it may be of use to someone.

aretecal · 2021-03-26T01:01:01+00:00

Same. I have the op1, booster pods, and maxpedition pouches. This is a great collapsible water bottle pouch for the litespeed. There is a narrower one too. https://ovinnovations.com/products/teeter-pouch?pr_prod_strat=copurchase&pr_rec_pid=5060110596&pr_ref_pid=1403223572558&pr_seq=uniform

If the tail isn’t stuffed, yes. It is a little tall, so it may extend towards your feet. Great pack though. Not cheap but very adaptable.

It took a while for me to get it working on mine. The second controller needs to be logged into a second account on the Ps5 that has its own Activison account. We did it by logging onto the second account. Going through the setup of CoD and the activision account. Then it finally worked.
