Just what the title says.
I've been training at an MMA gym for over a year and been doing quite a bit of wrestling and BJJ. Never done any grappling prior. I've noticed I'm good at defending takedowns and subs, but on the contrary can't do them for the life of me on the same guys who I defend so well against.
Are some people just more naturally inclined to be better at one or the other? Is it better to be this way than vice versa? Will the natural timing and "defense IQ" eventually have some crossover to executing takedowns and subs myself in the future?
