I just wish everyone stopped using years. I should have this rant autofilled.
1 year of 2x per week is not equal to 1 year of 4-5 times per week. But people measure in years.
And more doesn't equal better. In today's world- if it takes more than 2 years or so to get someone to a solid blue belt level- etiher the student sucks or the instructor sucks. "tough standards" in my mind usually means either shitty instructor, or old fashioned approach to not wanting to promote anyone to black belt so they don't open a gym and compete wtih you.
