on my belt today. That means i'm like a step away from gettin the next belt up.


I trained last night and Edson told me i was to lax. That when i got tired i just didn't try.

I went home and did some crunches and side bends and some shrugs.

I woke up to my sholder really ****in hurtting!

I went to practice anyway. and went toe to toe with a brown belt for quite a while, achilies locking him (he got out and mounted me) I escaped his armbar and went to a pass into kneebar to which he twisted out of into heel hook when Edson stopped us saying I can't do foot locks till i'm brown or black belt. (gggrrrrr). I then somehow got his back and put on an armbar of my own to which he ascaped and I then went into triangle and time ran out.


I then got 3 stripes on my belt at the end of class.


i gues i did pretty good.

Why can't you do foot locks until a certain belt?

congrats on the 3rd stripe. my bjj instructor is the same way, no leg locks until you are attending the advanced classes, which you can do once you get your blue belt. I think it's a good idea, I'm sure most of you have seen an over aggresive armbar lead to an elbow popping. If that happened with a heel hook or kneebar it would really **** someone up.

What the ****, I was doing foot locks since week 2. That belt won't mean anything till I kick your ass.

A fighter applied it but no tap so he readjusted and torqued hard, the guys ankle snapped.

Edit* It was Sean Sullivan vs Curtis McWatters in kotc3

Woah... I always figured that his ankle just snapped, but he was wearing shoes so I couldn't really tell... painful stuff.
