Are you actually a black belt? When I was younger and got out of prison I felt that way. Was in good shape though not nearly as jacked as I am now, crazy condition from long calisthenics workouts every day, had been fighting and beating literal monsters for the last few years as an undersized white kid that "looks like a boy band member" according to some of the guards, made over a quarter million my first year out, still was connected to some things in a way and at least a few dudes would do anything I told them to without questioning. I miss that confidence, working on getting it back in more wholesome ways and I'm really interested in jiujitsu. Have far less ego now and thought it might be a good fit.Now imagine being on testosterone and knowing jiu jitsu.. being able to easily handle every dude in the conference room if I need to... thats the confidence i have lol
I actually am yes.. lol been training consistently for 17 years now.. Been on trt for about 5-6 years which is how i found this page lol. Thats awesome man.. there is no confidence like knowing you can defend yourself in a hand to hand combat if you needed to.. Try out Jiu-jitsu i think you would enjoy it!Are you actually a black belt?

@BJJ_blackbelt310 @Gullinbursti I actually do train lol but am a complete beginner about 50 classes deep not even a 1 stripe white belt. Jitsu definitely in a lot of ways represents challenging yourself and leaving your comfort zone but I would be lying if as new as I am, felt I would have any edge in a physical confrontation.. thats what the glock is for LOL (clearly talking defense here if someone violently attacked me I am not some nut case haha)
I saw a funny post with john danaher where a brown belt asked him how he could beat a world class jitsu practitioner and he literally said “bring a gun” lmaoNice man! i always say.. the white belt is the hardest belt to get through.. you have to take a beating almost every class but trust you'll get better after a while. Yes glock is probably the best self defense there is.. lol
