doesn't seem like a very good Self-Defense system if it takes a DECADE to master the ability to defend oneself?


- THey train years before that. And they would get their asses kicked in unarmed combat by several kids enrolling in a wrestling program.
Being a navy seal is diferent than grappling in nmats, the other way around is also true.

They are in full time training for a year whereas the average BJJ player isnt most may train for 3 nights a week at the start and have day jobs. Someone already tried explaining that a rich kidd who can train BJJ FT may be able to get there much sooner

Can you stop posting on this site? youre worse than the autists tactless and fatboy literally no one likes you or even njoys debating you or enjoys hating you youre too lame to even hate its weird


- The competitors take far fewer years to graduate. The same in karate and taekwondo. Today i think the average is fiver years. But guys train every-day, more than one time per day. But being a good competitor is diferent than having the ability to pass the art to other people.

Right the average weekend warrior doesnt train everyday though but point taken the more committted guys can get their BB quicker than 10 years, point still stands that a BJJ BB SHOULD take more than most undergrad degrees including law excluding medicine

ok, so I see there is some stubborn argument against my example of Navy Seal and Green Beret. So I will use the USA MARINE. I don't think that people would consider it to be such an easy thing to do to become a USA Marine Infantryman. It's a rather ELITE Soldier I would imagine. So in my research I think it takes about 3 months to turn a civilian into a MARINE WARRIOR. And it seems that the USA MARINE Infantry Training School is around 14 weeks.

Like WARRIORS throughout HISTORY the Infantryman must master many skills to perform his role as society's WARRIOR class. I'm sure if MMA grappling were superior that the Military Minds would forego all the unnecessary various "Jutsu" trainings and just focus on some submission grappling to defeat their enemies.

conclusion: It does not take a DECADE to create a USA MARINE Infantryman to serve and defend his nation as part of its formidable WARRIOR class. In FACT it appears to take around 1 and half years?

and when one researches the history of FOUNDERS of Arts they will often observe a similar trend where an Founder studies system(s) 1-to-3 years then goes on to create whatever Kung Fu, Akidio, Judo, Jiujitsu method they develop.

Guys like BJ Penn and Caio Terra got their BBs in 3-4 years as adults training full time and pretty much living in the gym. Competition kids who start early, like Mica Galvao and the Ruotolo brothers, were probably black belt level by the time they are 16. But they can only be Blue at 16. So they get fast tracked to purple at 17, brown at 18, and then black by the time they turn 19. Galvao was tapping black belts as a 13 yr old green belt but didn't get his black until he was 18 or 19.
