In light of the mass rape and child SA scandals happening every other week at the very top of the sport the only way forward is to drop the whole "Brazilian" thing
BJJ is too tainted to continue

My gym dropped it years ago. No OSS, no acai, no brazil, just "Jiu jitsu".

Think it's worth joining a gym if I can only make classes twice a week? It's a Gracie Barra close to my work.

Have you ever gotten hard during a roll? Just rolled nogi with someone wearing the tightest rashguard around her D cups. I swear she does it on purpose.

1st ibjjf competiton this week end, lost gi and nogi 1st round. I'm complete trash. I feel like i don't belong in this sports, i'm 1 year and a half in, on steroids and lost vs people with 6 to 9 months of time in.Couldn't do shit, was on defense all the time i can't attack for shit and my defense is swiss cheese given how much holes it has in it.Even in sparring, i never win against anyone who isn't a brand new white belt. Smaller than me with who joined at the same time ? Get tapped or just survive for 5 minutes but can't put them in any sort of danger. Bigger than me ? Can't survive 5 minutes, i will get tapped at least one or two times.I feel like trash and feel like i'm a complete waste of time and energy and should quit. Legit angry and sad about myself.

I have been trying out Octopus Guard for the past few weeks and it is genuinely the most fun bottom position there is.
Really feels like a "crossroads" position where I have many opportunities to get into and various paths to go from. Getting into the position isn't too hard and the basic defense is pretty solid. My biggest issue right now is sweeping and attacking from it but so far it really added a lot to my rolls.

do you guys remember that story i think it was in the 50's where some gracies or jiu jitsu guys trapped a luta livre master and broke his arm with an iron bar? i remember reading something like this i swear i'm not crazy, i researched it everywhere but couldn't find anything, feels like i'm getting gaslighted

Why are so many beginners insecure about being beginners? I am not judging them but like what do they expect when tapping to someone who has been training for 7 years and has a 20kg advantage?

So I've been training for a couple of months and always try to warm up with drilling single leg from a standing positionIt always feels so slow. It takes me like 2 seconds to level change, drop down, slide my foot across and then stand back up. Also when I try this around the house it fucking hurts even on carpetAre single legs that slow, am I doing something wrong? Obviously I can never pull this off in sparring. Unless I grab their leg from the clinchOr is shooting for singles just something you can't learn as an adult.

My experiences with BJJ (Gracie), during my first month, coming from a JKS karate purple belt (8 years of training):Despite not knowing how to pass guards, I know some finishes, like classic armlocks, the Americana, and the rear choke—really basic stuff. I say this from my experience, but from what I saw, there is hardly any consistent drilling. Most of what you learn is simply rolling, in a “free-for-all” way.You learn some standard techniques, then you do some 5-minute rolls (which, if you are a white belt, are completely useless—and I’ll explain why). One day you’re learning how to pass the guard, the next day you’re learning a sacrifice takedown, then you have leg techniques. In my experience, there are too many unrelated techniques. For a white belt, it would be better to learn the real, true, raw basics.Here comes the comparison: like how I learned in karate. Of course, I say this based on what I find the most pleasant and easiest way to learn, but you get the point. You start in position A, which opens a range of possibilities that can evolve into different locks and other positions, both for the attacker and the defender. In this drilling motion, a flow state makes it easier to associate the movements with muscle memory. With fast-paced, repetitive movements, it becomes easier and more intuitive to learn.In karate, it was drilling, drilling, and more drilling—hardly any fighting. And now I know why most white belt fights are completely awful. And I mean it—absolutely horrendous. There is no technique whatsoever; only brute force counts when you’re a white belt.Well, now I know why so many people are attracted to BJJ. In most of my rolls, the opponents relied on their weight advantage to get tight top pressure, which they would hold for two very impressive minutes. That amounted to absolutely nothing of value being learned.

What is a good way to enter octopus guard when your opponent has you in side control?
I got it to work a few times but this was more because the opponent's outside arm was already in a position for me to switch there. Which escape attempt is the best setup so I can follow up with octopus guard?

Guys, i have hard times to get my hands through openings, like between arms, armpit etc.
I feel it's often very difficult for me to get through to have access to submission.
Likewise, i have huge troubles finishing rear naked chokes because either i get my arms sent away and/or my arm can't get under the chin and i have just the rnc on the face but my oponents never tap.I'm ofc a stupid white belt, you guessed it, and autistic so i know my coordination isn't the best. But i feel frustrated because i can almost only get tap by doing ankle locks and nothing else.Am i the only one that is retarded like that ? Is it normal ? i'm a year and a half in, feeling like a brand new guy yet i know what i'm supposed to do, i understand where i have to go and the course of action to get to the win but physically i fucking can't.
I'm 5"11 196lbs with good amount of muscles (around 18% bodyfat) (180cm 89kg in non american unit)Please, i need feedbacks and ideas on what to do about it. Many thanks.
