    Just seeing this now, I'm the 2nd guy. Jumped into this comp after 7 weeks of training, it's funny looking back now, genuinely had no clue what I was doing. Thanks again for the roll

      Does your lifting strength carry over well to grappling?

      @@6flags545 absolutely. As much as people will tell you it doesn't, it really does. It will become less relevant as I progress through the belts but at a white belt level strength is such a big advantage in my opinion. The key is to not rely on it and focus on technique but if you can combine the 2 then youre giving yourself a big advantage.
