As a white belt, I enjoyed being smashed. I also enjoyed losing 50lbs in 6 months from doing BJJ. What I didn’t like were the egos despite the whole “leave your ego at the door.”

Sometimes you are the hammer and sometime you are the nail. Key is don’t quit and don’t let your ego get in the way.

Keep going and you get so used to getting smashed that you can be getting destroyed by a purple belt and actually stay calm while defending. You get used to it, and you find the calm in the storm eventually. Then you are ready for blue!

Maintain a pace that allows you to breathe through your nose the majority of the time. Obviously some rounds won’t allow for this but it helped me monitor how much physicality was being used.

Real men speak up and stand up. And that's the majority that do.

Any tips on how to manage training load with other activities ie lifting?<br><br>The issue I’m having is lifting - I know what’s programmed for my block (sets reps, weights or rpe)<br><br>BJJ - I turn up - small gym and it’s either being somebody’s bitch some days to pretty chill sessions with smaller weaker folks other days. So I either leave very sore the next day or feeling like I haven’t done much. I don’t know til 1 min before class starts which it’ll be ha!

Is training twice a week in BJJ, one gi and one no-gi sufficient?
