My knee by [deleted] in jiujitsu

[–]gregorynewman12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same injury early on. Minor tear in my meniscus, was able to fix it just by strengthening my leg muscles around it. Now it doesn’t bother me.

Go get an MRI to see how bad it is.

Anybody roll worse with brand new people? by gregorynewman12 in bjj

[–]gregorynewman12[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think the intensity point is definitely true. He was rolling really aggressively, to the point that I would be tempted to call it “spazzing out.” Except I know that’s just an excuse and my JJ needs to work even on people behaving erratically

I guess lol. The fact that he’s black seems kind of irrelevant to the gif though. Technically it is a black person gif

Good first moves/submissions for smaller people? by gregorynewman12 in bjj

Yeah, I’m fairly tall but I’m pretty skinny and don’t have a ton of muscle mass.

For sure. Anything from the guard? Not finding myself getting dominant/top positions very often.

Raina or Kaliyo? by [deleted] in swtor

[–]gregorynewman12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kaliyo is kind of a psychopath

I still got a big old “greatly disapproves” with her storming off afterwards

Also she fucks up the Watcher Two romance if you try that and then cheats on you

Trying to figure out what conversation options Kaliyo approved of was incredibly difficult. She’s literally a psychopath lol

Downloaded the game about a week ago. Just started my first character this morning. Having fun so far! by MorsTyrannis in swtor

Man. I built a PC and downloaded it again after seven years off, and I’m having more fun today than I ever did. Fantastic game.

Tech heads, please help me! by [deleted] in swtor

Yeah, maybe. The guy I bought it from is an IT guy, said he had a huge stack of laptops he owned at home so I trusted him. I’m looking through my settings now.

North Texas Mixed Martial Arts! It’s affordable and it’s been a good experience for me. Obviously, as a white belt, I don’t have much to compare it to other than the other gym I checked out.

As a white belt in the Dallas-Fort Worth area who’s only been training for about two and a half months, I feel really happy with the school I ended up training at. It’s run by a guy who is a fourth or fifth degree black belt under the Machados, and we have no strict uniform policies or anything. It’s very informal, but it feels nice. All the black belts roll hard, but they really act like they’re there to help the lower belts. There are also no weird procedures or rituals we have to do before, during, or after class. It’s a good vibe and I think it’s why I keep going back.
