I've been considering getting into it as a form of self defense (inb4 fags argue how practical it is or not), a fun work out, and as a sport. I figured if I got really good it'd be a way to talk to qt's and offer to show them a thing or two then fugg. Friends and I used to practice it back in high school, was really fun with the big booty / titty girls that thought they were tough (some were really good though.) Not sure how it would be as an adult in my mid-20's though.
Fucking go for it man, you can do bjj at any age, I recommend the gracies. They do a lot of self-defense stuff but they also teach you the sporty side. All around some of the best bjj practitioners in the world, they created bjj after all.

Definitely go for it. I was a fatass till i started, it got me into fitness
Jayden Brooks
How was it going as a fatass? Did you feel out of place or anything like that?

Seriously, of all the different martial arts I've done BJJ is superior. Way more effective than any other forms.
You can get an edge on much larger foes. Once you grapple them, and it's inevitable, it's game over for 'em. And before anons start yelling about MMA or Muay Thai, it is practically always a BJJ practitioner that takes the prize in UFC, for example.
While the video focuses on pure BJJ you can find countless videos on YouTube about mixed martial arts matches.

I wrestled for about nine years, then gave bjj a shot for a week. Honestly it's great if you are a beginner, it teaches you how to move an opponent around and feel comfortable. But if I fought someone with bjj background I would tear them apart.
The reason is because I can kick, elbow and maybe punch from so many positions that I could hold a bjj in while they try and move to a better position.
However, if you learn it, 99% of the fights you get into in the future, you will have a damn good advantage.

Nah, everybody at my gym was really nice about it.
Obviously i sucked, but i lost weight really fast, and it made me want to get better.

Go for it, just take it easy at first in sparring if your gym has you spar at all in the beginner course. Keep that retard strength at bay. Take the basic course and keep going, roll with blue belts and up every chance you get. Do no-gi too, it's fun and fast flowing compared to low level jiu-jitsu.
Alexander Myers
Go for it. As for being in your mid 20's, I'm in my mid 40's and am going to my first class after a couple of weeks.
