Sydney Samoska I couldn’t agree more, we need to keep showing up and improving just a little more every day. Consistency is the key. 

Jiu Jitsu is so complex and challenging at times, good training partners are key.  Not only we need to trust them, but also we need them to challenge us mentally and physically.  A good training partner will push up without destroying you, they will motivate you when days are hard, and help you without making you feel stupid. I think that's why we create such strong bonds with others on the mat, which often turn into a longterm friendships. 

Always appreciate your training partners, you can't get better without them. 

Exciting week ahead in both Gi and NoGi classes. Let’s talk about leg attacks. Let’s pack the room and have some fun 👊🏻

I personally always have a plan, sometimes it could be working on the very specific set of techniques or concepts, other times it might be just a flow with minimal resistance and continue developing the ability of switch between positions. Goals change from day to day or week to week, however, I'm very strategic and purposeful about my training time.

I feel like with a specific goal or strategy my training is very random and often results and very low success rate. 

Big week in the Interm NoGi class, arguably the most important topic of all - side control escapes 💥

LARRY SKINNER you are machine 💪

I agree with Russell Usauskas - 2 days is a minimum to maintain and what we have. 4 - 5 days would be a good amount to continue progressing. Mobility and strength would be part of it. 

I will be the first one to admit it I used to not wash my belt for many many many years. However, after pandemic, I have changed my mind. No judgment towards anyone, but my belt is clean, I also have a backup belt just in case.
