[ahheadlock]

Took me nearly 12 years, more injuries than i can count, but i got to brown town

I dont feel like i'm any good yet. Hopefully that happens some time in the next few years

anyway, thanks F12 for being your beautiful selves.

Grats man! Be happy and proud. Trainer of my son got his blackbelt at 50 years of age.

It's the way you walk through life and the symbols accomplished will appear!

Next youll get your black belt! Osh!

Congrats bro!



Enjoy tying on that fresh brown belt and don't sweat the imposter syndrome, we all get that. A year from now you'll be rolling like a champ and feeling like a seasoned brown.

not really sure i have a favourite. Every now and then you hit something and it's like "ok that felt good to get that", but that's usually more niche low percentage things. I guess the things i can get the most are pretty boring fundamental things - arm bars, kimuras, straight foot locks, collar chokes, etc. I'm old, fairly big, and not flexible so i guess my 'game' is to try to get to top, apply pressure and then take what comes.

only if you're as shit as i am.

i mean i have 3 kids and a full time job, if i was a young guy with no responsibilities and could train all the time - It'd probably happen quicker. Also in the time since i started i've had a full ACL tear, a hip resurfaced, torn shoulder, torn groin, broken foot, neck injury, hurt feelings, all sorts of shit.
