I'm going to not compete next week because I'd like to move down a weight class. I won't be taking more than a few months off from comps.

Lynchburg

Thanks, and I believe it will!

As long as you keep training, you should be fine. I just thought you might need the added pressure of competing in front of others to keep you focused on your diet.

Keep us posted on what you are doing. Outside of your gym and family, we are your biggest fans.

Ahhh commiserations Lynchy, but look at Vitor, he didnt make his atmosphere over night.

Give it a few days and the disappointment will pass, you will learn from your mistakes and come back stronger

I agree completely with Rek here don't be too disheartened no need to take time off as some self punishment keep at it. Remember the feeling of failure and break your back to make sure you're never in that place again. No need to be embarassed thats ridiculous just build on this and keep going. You know what you can do and you know its this weight issue thats holding you back so sort it out. I don't really understand grappling tournaments but you looked good in that first one until the last minute or so.

Nice one anyway and keep at it Lynchster (no KKK)

I agree with the reast of the lads, take a break NOT a kit kat, take a few weeks off and watch some of your favourite ATG fights, boxing, MMA, MT whatever and get really reved up.

Don't worry about teh losses, or you may develop Mayweather'ities' and we don't want that spreading!!

Hang in thier, chin up nothing to be ebaressed about you're a fighter you win some you lose some, onwards and upwards!!

[Lynchburg]

February!!!!

I will make my comeback! The recent training with Leo and after Chico become European Champion I have been inspired!

I am going to enter a No-Gi tournament in February and also going to smash someone in an MMA fight!!!

Middleweight, LHW, Heavy weight or even WW!!! I'm going to do this shit!!!!

Back me up guys!!!

Well not really... I have been doing a lot of weights so I have gained quite a lot of muscle mass. I've been squating 200kg, benching 110kg, deadlifting 170kg and cleaning 70kg so with the dieting too i'm slimming down but not losing weight really.

I'll get there though

I tape my ears when I compete... when I train I don't though as if anyone is dirty in training they'd soon be out the door

Your ground control is getting much better. I always find armtriangles easier to finish if you grab your bicep.

I find I get good results if I keep my hips on the floor during a arm triangle. Granted I am only a white belt.

Lynchburg, I seen a few of your BJJ vids awhile back and you did well then and way better now, good to see your doing well!!

To each their own. I am shit at armtriangles anyway never catch them on anybody that is not about my size or smaller.

[sugarngold]

I like how you left your weight category options open. lol

Keep up the good work, Lynchie! Hats off to anyone that has the balls to get in the ring.

Well it depends on the situation for me... sometimes I tripod ala "Von Flue choke" and use my shoulder but other times in do go flat and place my hips close to the floor.

In that fight I was just a little hyped so I left my technique a little... it happens I guess...

It can be tough for the smaller guy... try getting a little higher up their arm and it may come easier

Haha... I was training MMA with the pro's today and two of them are top 12 ranked British LHW's... hard is not the word!!! Iron sharpens Lynchburg though I guess the saying goes!

That name has gone thank God!!! Tequila is the official one now it seems!!!

On a side note I've really upped the training! I'm training 6 nights a week and also in the day when I can... everyday I notice improvements and I'm tapping guys who smashed me 3 months ago!

I'm training Freestyle Wrestling with a former GB member too!!! I can't wait to start competing again!

Thanks for all the support

I almost never shoot for armtriangles looking to finish, if anything these days I attempt to use a JT Torres style regular triangle off the armtriangle position, its pretty good. I did it before but his way of getting it is much more clever.

If you are ever in or around Glasgow come along to BJJ Scotland dude, we can get a roll in.

Right. You want to keep your hips flat and drive with your toes whilst rotating clockwise or counterclockwise as need be.
