My explosiveness, Fighting strength, wind, Fighting muscle memory is returning this is my 3rd week of BJJ and it returning at a fast rate, first 2 weeks I was Shark Food
Now they are saying I'm progressing quickly.
But it's not about that I'm concentrating on my sweeps and that's it, I was rolling with a Brown Belt and every time we reset and I have him in my guard I'm practicing the same move, he gave my props for sticking with the same move

This not the nationals. Chill.Rib muscle. Twisted suddenly while finishing a sub.
Everything your coach shows is legit so once u find one u like stck with it. Eventually oeople will force u to use an alternative and ur game will evolve. The progression is so natural.My explosiveness, Fighting strength, wind, Fighting muscle memory is returning this is my 3rd week of BJJ and it returning at a fast rate, first 2 weeks I was Shark Food

Trained at an open mat far away from my gym today. I was feeling pretty good about myself because the week leading up, I trained like 9 times. In class I could feel how much better I had gotten. Then I go over to this other gym and I get crushed left and right. I felt like it was my first week all over again. I don't know if it was that all the best guys were there or just that everyone there is that good but god damn. I took some of the worst beatings ever. I think it was Gods way of humbling me. It was one of those days where you leave and question what you're doing with your life. Is it worth it? All the time I spend training even though I'm 
. I have to remind myself to just keep showing up and take my licks cause this is how it's going to be for the next couple of years. I really understand why people quit. If I didn't love doing this so much a day like today would've stopped me. I'm just going to use this as motivation to get better. Besides it wasn't all bad. I hit a lot of escapes. Lately that's what my game has been consisting of, escapes.

Random thoughts.....
Did 40 mins of yoga before open mat today. I was hitting all kinds of poses mid roll
shyt was magic.
Thought a groin injury was going to force me off the mats but I said fukk that. Got back to lifting weights 3x a week, core and lower back exercise 2x week, yoga 40 minutes 2x a week. My body healed fast like Wolverine.
Rolled with a bigger better stronger wrestler today. He had 15 years fighting experience and no neck. Got tapped over and over. I was literally clueless about how to even attack. I considered going for leg locks but I always feel guilty going for them.
Watched 3 ninjas with my kids the other day and picked up a cool concept. The grandpa at the beginning tells the kids “Only fight battles you know you can win.” I didn’t take it as just roll with new guys but took it as don’t go for shyt unless you’re 90% sure it’ll work. Mainly it’s improved my takedowns cause I don’t just shoot in and hope for the best.

A knee injury took me make out right before a tournament at the end of February. After that life just piled on. Couldn't run, I've gotten really fat, it's hard for me to get people to roll with me at the end of class, that's how fat I've gotten. This cascade has been crazy and I'm seriously considering quitting but my conscious won't let me. I know there's more for me in BJJ. I can feel it, it's not time to quit yet. I'm barely training but I think if I can make it through this storm a lot of free time will open up to where I can train consistently again.
