I had never rolled with a black belt before, and said, "Are you really a black belt?" He said yes, and I was like, OK. We went pretty easy, and he let me tap him with a choke. I still feel like an ass for asking him if he was really a black belt, but I wasn't expecting a black belt to come up to me ask me to be his first roll of the day. I will never question a person's belt again, unless he is obviously a faker.tobyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08546842773436850029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8584799702351316273.post-68077883891138281742015-11-08T15:57:03.197-05:002015-11-08T15:57:03.197-05:00Great article!

I am reading and absorbing and studying as much as I can to gain a mental understanding of the fundamentals. I know my patience and mental tactics are lacking, as I am a rush and get things done with kind of person. I am excited to learn patience and strategy. <a href="http://ultimatemmact.com/" rel="nofollow">Brazilian Jiu-jitsu in Connecticut</a><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14675836442372016732noreply@blogger.com
