How lifting helps you in other things

Thanks for the clarification OP.

>not choosing 1

Yeah np, claiming to beat the advanced guys 3 weeks in would be complete bullshit.

>btw I bench 1,337 lbs and drive a Ferrari, and my dad owns Nintendo

Must be this tall to ride

haven't been able to dunk in a couple years, due to gaining weight and not being active. got my weight back down to 205 and squatting 3x a week for a few months, now I'm dunking pretty easily.

>tfw being a 6'4 male and not being able to dunk a basketball

>tfw no explosiveness and can't jump or shit

I'd do five

Cmon I just want five. Re-Rollin.

hard to tell, but 8 looks like the best

So you're winning in the fundamentals class? I hate it when people go really hard in the fundamentals class.

Not related to you, but I was early for a no-gi class one time. They had me practice passing closed guard with a class that had a bunch of white belts in it. Not only did this big guy use maximal effort without breathing, he didn't know proper hygiene. It sucked so bad.

Oh, we all give full effort during sparring, but like I said the advanced people are in a different class. Gi and no-gi don't spar/roll against each other.

>and i bursh my teeth and floss

>Full effort
>Third week
>In the academy

I'm so sure that's not the full story.

Not an academy, just a club at my Uni.

I may not be wording things correctly. When I say full effort, I simply mean when I'm sparring against other beginners I'm not holding back, so my strength gives me an advantage.

To give you some background info, we do warm ups, then we get taught something, practice it, given advice, continue practicing, and then last 20 minutes or so are sparring, 2-3 minute rounds, and switching partners each round.

Current problem is, while I can now consistently force my way into side control, and I've already been taught multiple ways to go from side control into a submission like the Americana, I'm just not experienced or technical enough to successfully do it in a sparring match.

There are many differences between how one would do randori in a class and how they compete. Not holding back puts you and your partner at a higher risk for injury. You either have a rogue instructor who infiltrated the university from Akatsuki, or a misunderstanding about how a fundamentals class works. There's no way they encourage you to go harder than 70%. Especially before you're "technical enough" to get somebody in an Americana.

I'm sure your longevity in the art and your risk of injury are better served with less effort during the class. Do they offer a competition class? Perhaps you could see about competing?

BJJ instructor here.

I wouldn't have absolute beginners roll. If I wanted them to do live stuff it would be positional based upon techniques I have done that day. I do that every class with my all levels class anyways, but of course have live rolling afterwards.

I got 5 or 8.

5, 6, 8, or 0 please

It's just a free club. It's taught by some pretty experience people (beginner class is taught by a purple belt). Nice people, they've only taught us the very basic fundamental stuff (guard and side control, mostly).

You get what you pay for desu, and it's free. No injuries so far, though.

>If I wanted them to do live stuff it would be positional based upon techniques I have done that day. I do that every class with my all levels class anyways, but of course have live rolling afterwards.

This is what we do, like I said before I might not be describing it adequately.

>mfw opponent's face when I'm inside his guard by the time the gong has stopped ringing

Was away for a while and did some more strength training than usual for a few months, can't wait to see the outcome of that when I get back on the ring.

lifting helps me to bowhunt (that 80# fps) and carry meat back to the truck

i actually started lifting 3 years ago to help my dad, he was a strong dude and had cancer and lost a lung and couldn't hurl the meat back.

i'm way more heavy and i get tired more easily in the woods, but since my dad is also more beaten up i can just keep his pace. he's a very good hunter still, so i always get to hurl heavy weight.

i powerlift and weigh 195 btw

rolling

gimme a five!

Only way it's helped me is getting the notice of a 3.14 Amazon that works in the salon across from me. She also Korean... maybe will ask her out next week

Rolling for 5, 0, or 9

a noob jits guy at work always tries to help me with big boxes at work but I tell him NO because i wanna lift my huge boxes and he thinks he's such a big strong guy

It fights my stress. I'm in law school and we've had three suicides in the past year so that's been weighing on everybody quite a bit. All three had shown signs of heavy alcoholism prior to death and since physical activity helps alleviate that somewhat, I'm trying to stick with it religiously. Looking good has become a distant secondary reason for lifting.
