1.5 years in the making. The longer I do jiu jitsu, the more I realize is missing from my game. Makes you wonder if its ever possible to reach a level of mastery.

Anyway, thanks for listening everyone!

I so expected this to be an abbreviation for Blowjob-jitsu or something.

I was dissapointed.

That being said, congrats on your accomplishment!

I think you'd be surprised. You should give it a try. Most clubs offer free trials so theres nothing to lose.

1.5 years? Not bad for a blue belt. But don't even talk about mastering a martial art until you've practiced it for 15 years
This signature is ruining eSports.

Grats!

A blue belt in BJJ is a major achievement. Its not like belts in other styles that are handed out for attendance. You should be very proud!

Keep with it!

A blue belt under my teacher takes several years, so to me, your mat time is more important than the belt itself, I think. I know people who get belts right at the minimum time length, but the people who really work hard and take more time at lower belts still smoke them like nobody's business.

I suspect you could probably hold your own against many weaker purple belts. Be proud man. This is a great thing and your rewards will only grow.

Makes me want to start getting into BJJ as well. Don't know how I'd feel about getting my ass handed to me on a silver plate over and over again, though. Good job and stick with it!

Not to discourage you or anything, but seriosuly. My mom got a blue belt with one or two stripes(Although, I'm not sure if all clubs got stripes as well)

I've trained for several years without proper dedication to get a blue belt. I'm on the way but not there yet. Alexandre Paiva gave me one stripe though.

Unfortunately, I'm not training this year because of homework and things like that.

Sounds like your mom's more of a baller than you'll ever be...

LOL!

anyway, grats SMB... Man, i wanna try BJJ as well but I'm a skinny alien with this beer belly. My friend told me that I need a lot of upper body strength to do some of the moves if ever I fought a bigger guy? Is this true or is this all about technique?
I don't think I've ever wished my opponent good luck prior to a game. When I play, I play to win. I hope every opponent I ever have is cursed with fucking terrible luck. I hope they're stuck playing underneath a stepladder with a black cat in attendance a
