From white to blue belt

avatar

Today I used the last of my trainings I had on my stamp card.

Tomorrow might be a day off and after that I will try a new gym which just opened.

The times are very convenient for me, it is cheaper and I enjoy mixing it up. One benefit I noticed if you go to a new gym is that classes can be very empty which means the trainer has a lot of time for you and sometimes it can be also a 1 on 1 session.

Today there was a guest trainer and we did some really fancy stuff where I do not even know the names of the techniques.

It was a choke and the set up was a bit like a triangle.

The main difference was it was a pressure choke. It was "fun" to practise but it does hurt after a while.

After that we did some rolling in as usual. Also as usual I did some good stuff and more bad stuff but this is why I wear a white belt.

And I feel I learned today. Training was fun the last week which is good as I bitched around a bit in my last post.

Dont worry the bitching will be back for sure at one point ;-)

The choke looks like very serious. If it is a ground fight, don't mess up with BJJ experts ;-)

In training, good stuff and more bad stuff both are okay. We can learn from everything after all. Looking forward to reading your next post.

When did you start training BJJ?

Were you nervous about trying it out for the first time?

I started in Germany.

I am always a bit nervous when I enter a new gym but I was training Muay Thai at the gym already so I was not this nervous.

Mit Burgern kann ich leider nicht dienen, aber neuerdings habe ich zwei 6er-Züge in der Wallet und kann zumindest ein !BEER anbieten ^^

I wish I can relate with this properly, but I don't do combat thing. However, it sounds so interesting. Your title says, from white to blue belt, what level would you reach to have a black belt because I think that is superior. Right?

Most black belts I have spoken to trained 8 to 10 years for it.

Wow! A decade. Seems like a huge journey, but the fun would keep moving one forward. Enjoy your skills.:)

@adesojisouljay I agree with @flipstar.sports actually I got messages from my previous articles because I used also different tags from different tribes which are not related to my article so please be wary of that, at the very least you should include sports articles to continue earning the rewards

I understand but I actually didn't know... I thought sportstalk supports other communities too... If you observe I've been posting about sports... I've learnt a lesson.. But I appeal if the down vote can be undone...

I gave you an upvote for a sport related post. But for the other one it is still not sport related.

You are very welcome to post anything sports related here but just putting the sportstalk tag in a post to earn extra tokens I see as a big reason to downvote

I saw your upvote and I appreciate it.. But I never used the sportstalk tag because I wanted to earn some sport token... I was ignorant about that... All my thought was that sportstalk supports all contents as like.marlians.. So it was my error. Thanks for correcting me.. I juts felt you could give Me that as a warning.

And could we chat on discord?

Hey is this BJJ? I actually practice this probably 10 years ago but for a year only I had a German master and he is a former soldier too, he just met his wife in the Philippines so that's the reason I met him
