Last week I got some subs while sparring, of course I let it get to my head a bit (although at the same time I realized what was happening ), then this week I feel like I can't get anything done. To top everyhing off I was rolling with a blue belt who was at least 25lbs lighter than me and I literally could not do anything and he could just play with me however he wanted. Such a great and humbling experience.
I love it, just goes to show the incredible depth there must be to this art. Shame we have only two sessions a week, although I've been doing some light technique practice with a friend of mine on off days and watching youtube vids + reading books.
So that this isn't just my monologue, do you guys have any protips, maybe a book to read or youtube channel to watch? How long did it take till you felt proficient in the art?
