What if I stopped liking grappling, hot chicks, drugs and extreme sports. Life would suck I guess.

I play without takedowns. There's no bodies crashing into each other. How is it not low impact? Risk of a concussion injury in BJJ is very low.Low impact? Do you purposely roll light in a gi?
Tai chi is sooo much more fun than yoga
My neck lol. But I only do no giI play without takedowns. There's no bodies crashing into each other. How is it not low impact? Risk of a concussion injury in BJJ is very low.
Yes getting guillotined at high intensity will certainly fuck you up.My neck lol. But I only do no gi
Maybe you should take it more seriously (whatever that might mean to you) and not rely on just your teachers to learn and practice.Yes but are you making that drive 3 days a week?

My brother from another mother.Now that I'm settling into my old man game it feels like the impact is lower. From bottom I just sweep or stand up unless someone gifts me a kimura, armbar, or leglock entry.
From top just play pressure, force half guard. From top half guard just drown them until you're in mount.
WhatJits? I guess you should try "Rate" or "Ondo" in that case.
You're right. The classes are always what the white belts want to learn. I gotta find what I wanna use and implement it on the matNow that I'm settling into my old man game it feels like the impact is lower.

OP! For what it's worth at higher levels you're going to need to take control of your training. Find something you want to work on, watch some free tape about it on youtube, and then put it to work on the mat.
If you hate the class structure just roll up late in time for positional sparring / rolls / open mat.
Exactly my thoughts!What
UmExactly my thoughts!
I'm a judoka and people i met who have trained it never used the term "jits". Might be an american thing.Um
Unless you train by yourself in your basement, you've heard jiu jitsu called "jits." The same can't be said for karate or tae Kwon do

Just do your own drilling in rolling. Pick a game stick with it that day or week etc. You will lose more but get what you want out of training.I'd be excited if I could find a no gi class that let me drill what I want for 10 minutes or something. Or an open mat with a coach that demanded 15 minutes of drilling before rolling or something. But just rolling and doing a bunch of random moves is uninspiring. I'm not going to use four new butterfly guard sweeps if we never practice them again and there is no drilling time on the schedule.
