Got my first advancement in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu!

I recently started taking Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and finally received my first stripe for my white belt. My instructor's a godd*mn taskmaster so it feels good to see I'm making some progress. Nice to see all the sweat and blood finally paying off for a change.

What's Brazilian Jiu Jitsu? Is that like waxing your private parts but only using your bare hands???

The enemy is not the other, the enemy is you.

yes.

yes it is.


biggrin

It's a martial art that focuses on leverage to submit an opponent through jointlocks and chokes. (ie armbars, anklelocks, leglocks etc.). It's originally a Japanese martial art but was founded in Brazil by Carlos Gracie and later modified by Helio Gracie who emphasized more leverage as opposed to strength.
