And thus it begins..blue belt

Sooo..jiu jitsu. The better part of the last 2 years of my life have revolved around injuring joints, getting choked and strangled, and being crushed by people who both outweigh and outperform me. In other words, I started to train in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.

Now, 18 months and 50lbs later, I'm a fit 205lbs at 6,4ft. I received my blue belt on November 19th 2006. In case you were wondering, life in jiu jitsu starts at blue.

\o/ *hooray*

Sooo..I've decided to start this blog for several reasons. First and foremost to structure and focus my progress and training towards a purple belt. Secondly, to provide information for people just starting out in the sport on what to do and what not to do.

I'll also occasionaly go off on tangents about not getting laid and things like geopolitical instability. But mostly about not getting laid.
