Accept your fate and enjoy the ride. Also test the school out if the instructor just lets people beat on you(Not a good or bad thing, I saw one guy who said lay it on me I want to know if this is worth my time.), you can kinda get an idea of the school and culture.
Yes you do have to roll before you get your blue, but you still have to complete the combatives courses before you start to "Roll", I've seen some schools break this model and made sparring an after class thing, but most schools don't include it in class. I do believe its a money thing. They...
I'm going to say it just depends on the school. The curriculum in gracie jiu jitsu is actually pretty good. The problem is that you don't do any sparring until you finish it(Again this depends on the school). So depending on your schedule it may take over a year to get all of it done, while if...
These things depend on the school. I know a GJJ school where they don't spar in the GJJ class, but they spar in the wrestling class right afterwards, and they do well in comp. The GJJ is just an affiliation that people use to get students. Some school will have good instructors, and top notch...
Just to add in my 2 cents.
You can start. I started at 35. Just remember to go easy. Its real easy to want to come in 3-4 time a week if u have the time, but stay at 2-3 when you are first starting. That 3rd day being just a learning day no sparring(BTW hold off on sparing as long as...
with these two guys as grappling partners
I"m sure he can muster up some good TDD. Will he be able to do it against the top 10 who knows, but he's been training for a few years now, and he's 28. So by 32 he'll be able to go on a run, but possibly may only get 1 shot.
Can't make 135
I think she would have trouble making weight
Would be kept away from Rhonda possibly
Already beat Rhonda in Judo match, as Rhonda's bull rush doesn't work against her. But this is MMA not judo so who knows
a few factors
Rumble has been fighting can's, so I"m not sure where he's really at.
He's actually fighting at a weight he should be fighting at. I'm sure he's not gonna gas in round 1. Not sure about 2 and 3
Davis MMA wrestling is not where it should be at. He was pretty confident...
I get what the OP is saying, but his ideas are flawed as in he's thinking there is only 1 type of intelligence. Intelligence comes in many forms and we all have it in different areas. So if you are a person who speaks well, you will regard others who speak well as "intelligent" and does who...
Thanks for all the replies, I put out a few fillers in the area, it seems like nobody has pricing on there sites. All want me to come in for a free 30 days. I may try out one or 2
That was my concern, lol. I'm a keyboard warrior for the most part and only have to head out for site installs. But Injuries were a big concern as in I can't work, I can't get paid workers comp is not that good, may have to bump it up if I decide to try BJJ long term. I'm in pretty decent...
I've searched the threads, but I've really haven't found a good answer. I wanna try out bjj, but I only have 2 days a week to dedicate to it and possibly 2 weekends a month. So for the most part I'm looking for a school for casual students in the baltimore area, not hardcore. I run a company...
Try to get on a carrier.
They will have BJJ and other activities on the ship. It maybe hit or miss though. I wasn't a participant back then, but 1 cruise they had some very good guys so they were able to have some good matches. Another cruise it was all beginners so I guess for the more...
