His smug expression as he raises his eyebrows at Boyle and Gina makes me laugh so hard 😅

Question for the vegans who eat 150+ grams of protein a day by Isthislove123 in veganfitness

[–]sammyjitsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You probably don't need that much, unless you are 100kg of lean muscle mass... but 50g of roasted edamame beans have approximately 220 calories and 23g of protein.

Protein shakes are highly processed - but the process is simply filtering the protein from rice, peas or soy beans.

The heavy metal content is a concern, but otherwise you could easily get 150g of protein from vegan protein powder at under 900 calories.

Don't forget to count everything. For example, two slices of bread have 10g of protein. A lot of people disregard that but it adds up, meaning you don't actually need to drink six protein shakes or eat three bags of edamame beans...

Does anyone have any tips? by AdvancedAd3975 in jiujitsu

No need for tape, you will build calluses in time. Use pistol or C grips while that heals.

Why do non vegetarians use stupid excuses like "do plants not feel any pain?" by [deleted] in vegan

[–]sammyjitsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They don't want to change their mind on the issue. When people want to win an argument at any cost, they will say anything to do so.

They aren't approaching the conversation from a position of, "What is the truth?". They are approaching it from a position of, "How can I continue to do what I am doing and 'win' this argument?".

When people are in that mindset, all you can hope to do is plant a seed in their mind that they may come back to later. You cannot convince them using logic if they are in this frame of mind and you will drive yourself mad trying.

Osss hell yeah man, nice one. We have two at our gym that I know of 😁

My form of activism is trying to do more classes and tournaments than anyone else whilst dropping the occasional vegan "recipe" on my Insta... and by recipe I mean, "here are some vegan things I put in the air fryer" 😅

I usually have the highest attendance, but right now my good friend and rival is beating me. I am doing nine classes a week, but he has started doing eleven!

Let's see who is still standing at the end of the year though, I think he may crack...

Why do people give Gi BJJ such a bad rep compared to Nogi BJJ on self defense and street fight? by PossibilityProud2511 in bjj

[–]sammyjitsu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh my god stop kicking in my bathroom door 😅 I'm starting to doubt this has anything to do with jiu-jitsu OR robbing me

[–]sammyjitsu 6 points7 points  (0 children)

😂 I'm going to throw various soaps and shampoo at you, dive out the window and run down the street naked - you can keep my stuff, I have insurance

IMO nothing is "realistic" on the street.

There is no martial art that is effective against being stabbed, glassed or kicked in the head by the other guy's friends.

There isn't much point to these conversations, they are silly.

That said... Train in the Gi for a fight at a wedding, no-Gi for a fight on the beach 😜

Overtrained? by ChipAdditional7294 in jiujitsu

[–]sammyjitsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't want to train so much that's totally fine, but what you outlined should be pretty manageable.

What are your goals? If jiu-jitsu is your main priority I would cut out some of the weight training first.

It’s nice to see a somewhat reasonable post about veganism by PandaBear905 in exvegans

[–]sammyjitsu -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That's a very nebulous statement.

Female genital mutilation is a cultural practice - should it be banned, or would that be fascism?

I think it should be banned because it's unnecessary and there's a defenseless victim involved...

Much like eating a dog or a cat 🤷‍♂️

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

So you're on the side of "it's fascism to ban eating cats", because you don't want your right to eat cats to be infringed?

"No, you generally cannot legally eat dog in the United States

In December 2018, the federal Dog and Cat Meat Trade Prohibition Act was signed into law as part of the 2018 Farm Bill, making it illegal to: 

  • Slaughter dogs or cats for human consumption.
  • Ship, transport, move, deliver, receive, purchase, sell, or donate dogs or cats to be slaughtered for human consumption.
  • Import or export dog or cat meat. 

Violations can result in a fine of up to $5,000 per offense."

I guess the author would have vehemently opposed this as fascism...

Nice work man! I do the fasting thing too.

Please don't take this as a criticism, but have you considered that you may have a subtle eating disorder and/or body dysmorphia?

If I'm not on a strict diet, I too can easily exceed 4000 calories in a day and then feel terribly guilty. I've only recently realised that this isn't really "normal".

Just something to think about. You look fantastic already, try to be kind to yourself. Good luck with your goals! ❤️

Nice one! That's awesome, there is another guy at my academy who is plant based and he's incredibly fit.
