Ahhh, facial hair. In wrestling, the rules state that you must be clean shaven. Back in high school, I thought it was hilarious that a guy on my team tried so hard to grow a goatee only to be told that he had to shave it at the next dual meet.

i've got a few guys at my gym who like to roll with me and a few who HATE to roll with me... reason being that i am almost always stronger than my opponent and i use that to my advantage and fight a very unorthodox fight...

anyone ever tapped out to a standing bearhug?

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.

wrong. i could see where you get that impression though... if i didn't want to train i wouldn't be paying 125$ a month to learn... i am simply saying you have to use your tool sets to your advantage... a short stocky guy can do alot of things a tall lanky guy cannot... and vice versa... you have to use what your mama gave ya.
