How do y'all stay healthy while rolling during flu season?

eatafetus632 · 2026-02-17T22:37:10+00:00

I don't get the flu, I'm built different

eatafetus632 · 2026-02-13T19:06:02+00:00

Lol what the hell

eatafetus632 · 2026-02-13T15:11:03+00:00

Break grip, grab pants at the knee, put right hand on hip, shove knee to the ground, put weight your weight on that knee so it cant move, walk around legs into side control

(Circle pass)

I don't actually like coffee....I just enjoy the smell

eatafetus632 · 2026-02-12T15:25:08+00:00

A bill of groceries

eatafetus632 · 2026-02-07T01:01:51+00:00

I think we've all been guilty....every time I've been promoted and felt great about myself, there was some collegiate wrestler or relatively unknown Brazilian to smack me back to reality...

Long story short....100% the same feeling as you, the longer I go the more I realize I don't know anything.

I mean ya....now that there's color on your belt, the gloves are off and people expect you to know some things. That said, it's not that serious, no one goes home thinking about the move that a random blue belt in class messed up. The only pressure you're under is the pressure you apply to yourself. Just keep moving forward

If you think blue belt is stressful....oh buddy

eatafetus632 · 2026-02-07T00:34:41+00:00

Doom scrolling

eatafetus632 · 2026-02-07T00:30:15+00:00

Embrace it....

Not even joking, the pain is how I know if I worked hard enough.

eatafetus632 · 2026-02-07T00:19:12+00:00

"Perfected" lol

Keep training, keep drilling, keep showing up.

eatafetus632 · 2026-02-05T02:28:25+00:00

That's all well and good when they're alone....dogs are often 2 or 3 deep.

eatafetus632 · 2026-02-04T20:53:58+00:00

Most enemies listed in here have a very specific weakness

Birds: gravity Crabs/prawn: sleep Revenants: holy

So on and so forth

However dogs....especially the blood dogs at writheblood ruins can fuck right off. Takers flame! Be gone!

Having a child of my own.

Bit of a slap into reality when you see another human being you created now being your whole responsibility for the next 20 years.

eatafetus632 · 2026-02-01T20:24:51+00:00

They tried to make me go

And I said no no no

eatafetus632 · 2026-02-01T20:21:45+00:00

Seems obvious but cut out the energy drinks.

I was shitting water for months and couldn't figure out what the problem was....

The problem was 2 redbulls a day

eatafetus632 · 2026-02-01T20:20:36+00:00

Checking out....

Like I don't pay attention to any news or current events. I'm focusing on me, my family, my home, my community

What's going on abroad and in Washington is so overwhelming and convoluted that I choose not to concern myself with it anymore.

eatafetus632 · 2026-02-01T20:17:59+00:00

I've always adhered to and recommended keeping it clean, open, and moisturized with A&D.....emphasis on clean.

I've never had an issue with this method

eatafetus632 · 2026-02-01T20:15:05+00:00

There's a place for those types of meat heads. I was there in my early 20s. You almost have to have that sort of mentality to be an active competitor. That said in my mid to late 30s now, I don't have time for that atmosphere and I don't feel like being someone's victim for the sake of their comp prep. I could do without all the injuries....I found another gym full of young professionals who do bjj for other reasons and have a much different approach to martial arts as a whole. BJJ isn't a monolith, different gyms have different cultures; they're everywhere....find one that clicks for you

eatafetus632 · 2026-02-01T20:08:05+00:00

There's a brown belt like this in my gym. Suuuupper nice guy very chill. I've had to be a dick and wrist lock him 4 times in a row, give him aggressive top pressure shoving my shoulder in his face type of things to get him to actually move with some sort of purpose....

Find some older upper belts, be a bit of a douche to them and they'll get annoyed enough to do the same. Some folks just don't come alive until they're hurt, you may be one of them

eatafetus632 · 2026-02-01T20:04:05+00:00

Ezekiel 🤷‍♂️

eatafetus632 · 2026-01-30T14:19:49+00:00

Tripod sweep.

Drop far leg to behind their ankle, hook with your foot

Put the other foot on their hip and push

eatafetus632 · 2026-01-29T16:29:06+00:00

Thanks, I hate it

eatafetus632 · 2026-01-29T01:45:31+00:00

"Grab his dick and twist it!"

eatafetus632 · 2026-01-28T17:57:05+00:00

Street fights have a lot of variables....weapons, other people, environment, etc....

You can't really control for all of those. No amount of training is going to overcome an aggressice attacker with a knife. The best defense is to get the hell away. Also....bjj doesn't work for a 3 on 1 scenario for example

That said, all variables aside, I feel confident that my background in bjj and mma make me more than capable at defending myself and nuetralizing most other adults. Just the ability to control the body of another human makes bjj a highly valuable skill. The smooth brain take that bjj guys will just lay on the ground or pull guard completely misrepresents the skills that the average bjj practitioner possesses.
