I would keep going for another month & see how you feel, BJJ is really difficult to start with if you never did wrestling in high school, but you’ll eventually become accustomed to the intense training & get better
@@DeeLee-v4c I’m not sure really, mate. Partly for fun, partly for fitness, partly for self-defence, partly to alleviate depression (but it’s made it worse), partly for social aspects. Why do you do it?
@@DannyHaidar164 thanks mate, I’m English so here in England wrestling is basically non-existent. I’ve done some boxing before but no grappling. I find the way BJJ is taught is really bad. Learning 3 random moves, then sparring in open rounds against higher belts that I can’t perform the moves on and that go 100% in every round is totally pointless and demoralising. It is an absolutely inefficient and dumb way to teach and learn any subject. The equivalent would be taking driving lessons in which your instructor shows you three random things about a car then you drive in traffic and you crash in every lesson. It would be pointless and stupid trial and error. Could this also be part of the reason why you feel low after training? I think we have a tendency to blame ourselves for feeling low instead of the systems and other people that impose stupidity and illogical methods upon us.
@@DannyHaidar164 hey. Thanks for your responses. Very open and detailed. You mentioned 5 reasons for doing BJJ. As far as I know, BJJ has never presented itself as being a solution to any of those issues/desires. BJJ, is just another sport.
I’m two months in to BJJ and I hate it, I feel like that after every session and I can’t even sleep because I feel so crap
Why are you doing BJJ?

This literally happened to me yesterday exactly how I felt but I went and got pho right after class and felt much better
the real answer is lowkicks and takedowndefens
Exactly. Striking and takedown defense. As evidenced by every era of UFC stars.
