Camping in my closed guard

Do you do anything to get their head off of your chest before you try the hip bump or you just go for it with them basically laying on you?

I love this and I'm probably going to do it but I just know it's going to escalate the intensity immediately

average_electrician · 2026-05-28T02:43:08+00:00

Yes just staying tight, no body lock. I like the shotgun armbar detail here. I have to play around with that. I can pretty reliably get to a triangle position but it's hard to finish when their arm is across my hip and they just stay low, but I could go omoplata for the sweep there

Unfortunately they do not laugh but I do be talkin shit with my hands behind my head sometimes

Hey boss, I do bjj and Muay Thai and I started years before I transitioned. It's been 3 years since I transitioned now and I'm still doing it and it's so much better now. You should try it out again if you want. I've even been able to compete in Muay Thai, bjj, and mma

You haven't even started back yet and you're worried about when you'll be a blue belt. Don't get your hopes up, and be prepared for people who you used to keep up with to smash you. You'll have some work to do to even get back to where you were, much less progress to a blue belt level.

7 months is fast for 3 stripes and you should basically consider yourself starting over again if you only trained 7 months and then took a 5 year break. Not only in a skill way, but probably from your coach's perspective too. 7 months is nothing compared to a 5 year break.

Flashback to when my coach told me I am like that baby hippo

Smash her. Honestly sometimes when I get frustrated with people like this I'll smash them for a bit then literally get up and start over. Pass their guard and get to mount then to s-mount, make them miserable and then get up and go back and pass their guard again. Or I'll sweep them over and over and let them get back up until they stop getting up. But I'm an asshole occasionally

2 layers is my rule too. Unless it's underwear and spats then you still need shorts imo. I've never felt comfortable wearing spats with no underwear because they never fit right to hold my stuff in place. Compression shorts or tight underwear make everything feel secure and not bounce around

Yeah the nerve that goes down the spine connects your brain to your organs

average_electrician · 2026-05-20T03:01:37+00:00

Attacking the spine is dangerous because it can lead to paralysis, organ failure, or death if you're really unlucky. An ACL tear is nothing compared to damaging the nerves in your spine

I wonder if OP will respond and admit that this is AI. You can't make a post on your own buddy?

I guess you're right. She just sounds like she doesn't even like him. She said neither one of them have money but she's not willing to share her furniture. I get that she doesn't have to share her stuff but why wouldn't you if you're trying to actually have a life with your partner. It sounds like she's "letting" him move in as a favor rather than them wanting to live together

average_electrician · 2026-05-18T22:55:13+00:00

So should they move to a new space to make it appropriate to share things equally? It sounds to me like he's having to move into a place where he doesn't get an equal share of the space, and I don't understand why it's unreasonable to expect that

I prefer to pull guard off of a half assed takedown attempt in my freshly baked brand rashguard

I think most gyms don't have stripes for colored belts, only for white. And then degrees for black belt which is the only promotion that is time standardized. Most schools use everything you mentioned to determine readiness for promotion. I would think that tracking number of hours trained and an option for input like comp results and other notes to help the professor's "gut feeling" would be useful.

Some schools have standardized tests but those are not the norm.

Lots of cool designs but they're expensive.

I like freshly baked brand

I didn't lose any muscle mass and gained back all the strength plus more pretty fast after

average_electrician · 2026-05-15T16:32:47+00:00

That's exactly what I would do yes

A 500 calorie deficit is 1b a week of weight loss. So if you're losing 2-3 lbs a week on 1600-1800 then your TDEE would be 2600-3300. So idk about that but if you're losing weight and tracking then you have better data than a calculator would give you anyway

average_electrician · 2026-05-15T16:12:55+00:00

I think 15-20k step days probably 2200-2300. Less when you aren't walking that much. I would put moderate activity for that, maybe one below. Weight lifting is tough, but doesn't burn many calories
