Please clip you toe and finger nails. I think instructors should check this before every class. Phone Post 3.0

1- When rolling (especially with smaller guys) go 100%. Close your eyes and pretend you're in the ADCC open finals. Don't let anyone try to slow you down and stop your progress.

2- Strength and dirty tricks > Technique- Wanna pass his guard. DIG your elbows into his thighs with all of your strength. Don't have the guillotine? Switch to a facecrank. ABNC: Always Be Neck Cranking. Kneebah, brah. The greap eqauliser. Just rip it, fuck 'em.

3- Don't was your gi. you don't want to look like a noob with a shiny white gi. I didn't was mine for 3 years and after a couple of weeks, guys would forefit or tap as soon as I got into their guard and pulled their head into my chest. I think it was because they knew my grey gi meant I'd been around the block.

4- Smoke cigarettes- Smoking fucks your cardio up, but you don't want to be one of these guys that rely on attributes. Shit-for-lungs will cause you to take it slow, because you won't have the gas to spaz.

5- Eat beans and drink Muscle Milk 2 hours before class. Fart Jitsu FTW

When you roll go completely apeshit. All the moves they are teaching you are good in theory, but any meathead with half a brain can understand that in a physical battle, the stronger more aggressive person wins. If any body tells you to calm down it's only because they feel inferior to your explosiveness. Phone Post 3.0

Ah, I tried to go back in my subs to see what thread it was in but I could not find it.  My budget is $200 which is good and all, I just dont want to be the douche who shows up in a $200 gi on his first day.

Serious tip, start a training diary. Write down what you learn, and references to it for later (like YouTube videos) and read up on it regularly after a few months. Phone Post 3.0
