I don't remember my face touching the guys face. The complaint came from when a purple belt was teaching me a technique where im sprawled on top of him with my chin on his back. He said it was annoying and it hurt.

i meant stubbly guys in general, specifically when they're going for arm triangles and such.

I am 25. she asked me to roll last week.... lets just say that I couldn't focus on what we were doing, and every time her hand slid past my crotch I felt of nervousness and i lost my concentration. i swear all i could think about was her body pressing into me... that has never happened to me before, probably cause i've only rolled with ugly chicks...
where are you guys training that your all rolling with chicks?

the olny girls at my gym are 11 in the kids class

It is good when training for a real life situation where you start off at a disadvantage, but it kind of gets annoying when it is done every single time you reset.
I hate that shit too man, the second I shake hands he has a sleeve grip and is already getting me out of position. Now, I usually just go for the hand slap instead of shaking hands.

This is more of a minor annoyance, but haven't heard this one yet so I thought I'd chime in. There's this guy that I roll with on occasion whose actually a bit more experienced than I am, but we match up really well because I'm a bit stronger and more mobile than he is. The last time we rolled we each got the other twice, so we're very even. But when he gets a tap he full on celebrates, arms up, shouts out. And part me is really happy to be practicing with some one whose really amped and competitive and goes 100%, but at the same time, it's like simmer down, and let's get back to work.

Ultra hot girls, I dont train in BJJ myself but I would imagine that it would suck to be in the guard of a girl like that.

I am probably hated by someone.

1. I'm a newbie.

2. I weigh 270.

3. I've got limited gas.

4. No skills.

On the other hand.

1. I bathe daily.

2. Keep my Gi clean.

3. Try like hell not to fart, slobber, or drip.

4. Don't roll will people waay smaller than me.


My coaches tell us all the time that rolling is for learning technique. Not tapping, unless they tell us it's for submission. My coaches usually roll with me because the one guy they put with me goes balls out, like he's trying to prove something. He, however, hasn't been able to tap me yet. Nor have I him.

I'm prone to being swept.....keep getting me arse to up, ya know!!

I've rolled with a really good looking girl and it was no big deal to me. I was a bit more aware of where my hands and head were, but that's it. She was obviously used to guys going way easy on her. I didn't and she seemed to appreciate that.

There have been a couple people that I've rolled with recently that have gone balls out trying to finish when they're in a good position but as soon as I get them in a bad position they tap out from exhaustion. It's kind of annoying because I work hard to get the position and then I don't even get a chance to work on any subs from the position. There's been plenty of times when I've been swept and had absolutly nothing in the tank but I always at least let the other guy work for his finish before giving up.
