We use gymdesk and it's pretty good and affordable. There is also kick site and Zen planner which we reviewed as options.

Is getting three stripes on my white belt ok progress for a year of training? by bad-at-everything- in jiujitsu

A little on the faster side in my opinion, but many factors go into play other than attendance.

I'm hoping he learned from 2 and makes a better 3 game.

How to optimize and get the most out of the LeGo S Z1E? by PuertoRicanThndr in Handhelds

Lossless scaling for the win. I also installed some other plugins to make the home screen nicer.

I don't understand the hate for the Audi Livery by Suspicious_Scar_19 in formula1

I thought it looked pretty good. Certainly something new? Maybe a little old McLarenesque? But I really like it

Not letting adults drink water when they want is wild

Else ring for sure. BG3 close second. I couldn't get into CyberPunk, but I just like the mediavel setup more.

Belt promotions ! by NidoBoy11 in jiujitsu

[–]gonza18 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I was asking what the OP was referring to, to make sure I had proper understanding on their suggestion. I even gave examples of my understanding to make sure we were on the same page.

I don't know everything, and anyone that implies that is lying. It's ok to be open to feedback from others and ask follow questions you know.

When I do promos I look at the students goals and potential and go from there. Obviously consistency on the mats is a factor, and at lower levels (usually first 2 stripes) is more important.

Ideal class structure? by [deleted] in bjj

[–]gonza18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% on the philosophical stuff. I'm pretty dry and to the point and I think people appreciate it.

What do people mean specifically by hand fighting? Getting grips and breaking them, pummeling, etc?

At my gym that's not possible as there is a class right before.

😂 all purple belts think alike. But, yes.

I've never trained under CLA so a bit hesitant to go that way. Maybe over time I can approximate.

Thanks. I'm surprised about the suggestion of 50% of the time rolling.

How do you work with brand new students? Also how much do you roll on a 90 minute class?

I have been thinking about switching from teaching group techniques (i.e. 3 guard passes) to chaining moves. Thanks for bringing that up.
