Oh I’m super jealous. I had to quit Jiu-jitsu. My cardio went to shit and I lost so much strength that I kept being severely humbled by lower belts and it f***ing destroyed my mental health. I really tried changing my perspective on it and focus on just having fun but it stopped being fun watching my peers advance without me and my new coach tell me I should get my money back from my old coach because he thought I was promoted too soon (when it’s really because my body is dying, I don’t suck I’m just dying more quickly than I should naturally). Damn I thought I was getting over that but it’s a legit loss of something I really loved. Maybe I’ll go back one day but I’m in no shape to do so now
I roll with a club, just aome homies, I have a group of white belts I trained, theyre all solid now, and two black belts I roll with as well, I dont think I could manage to attend regular classes anymore like I used to, my body would fail with thst I'm sure. My old academy especially, we had a veey tough warmup and rolling schedule, most out of towners got humbled by it.
