Hey all, I have been training BJJ for about 9 months solid every day 2x a day and today I got the opportunity to try out for the team. It consisted of 20 minutes, going up against fresh fighters and getting my whoopins, In the end i survived, not very well cause my conditioning is made for jiujitsu and not MMA. Im so happy I cant type straight but damn it feels good to complete goals! I have pictures of my face but i dont know how to get them on the net, i use verizon. If anyone can help that would be great.

Congratulations man. When's your first fight? Haha.

For my school we had to take a conditioning test before he even let us spar. We're more of a stand up school. The test was hell. Then after that he'd only let people fight in smokers, tournaments, amateur matches, etc. who regularly went to sparring and who he deemed were ready.
