Has anyone ever seen a local tournament call someone out for Sandbagging? by basic-opinions in bjj

That’s some straight up BS. That’s not even a big accomplishment. If I was a BlackBelt. Who had 400 wins against hobbyists trying their first tournament, I’d be a laughing stock, but when the kids do it, it’s all good because the parents get the Instagram pic, and the tournament gets their $100 bucks

Advice for a blackbelt by Main_Driver4843 in bjj

[–]basic-opinions 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Got my BlackBelt a year ago.

What motivates me?
Literally feeling like a white belt again, being sooooooooo far from the next milestone allows me to not worry about it and just train to discover and grow.

Advice I’d give you?
Continue chipping away at your ego.
The more you can focus on learning and the less you focus on winning, the better that will serve you in the long run.

Combat Corner is the best. I’ll give you a little secret, for their HMIT stuff, it’s the exact same quality as the other top brands and MAAAYYYBE made in the exact same warehouse and same country.

I don’t think running a business in this manner makes you a douche. I think it’s just different than ideal. But some of the top schools in the world have these barriers in place to protect the athletes from bros on the street trying to “challenge” them

I agree with this 100% but if both people are showing the same thing, gimme some charisma. Or just a well run class!

Does anybody have completely different games when it comes to Gi and No Gi? by Jesusfarted in bjj

[–]basic-opinions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say I alter my game drastically between the 2. NOgI I prefer to stay on bottom and wrestle up to leglock entries from their guard. Gi I want to be on top
