| And I do. In university, with friends, whenever I can. Although my confidense does not really need a boosting. I like losing, as long as it's to someone better. Makes me try harder and harder. |

When you're first learning, though, it's more important.
What you can do against less skilled opponents is let them start from your back or something. Makes it interesting! Also, I'm certain we've discussed this before, because I'm getting deja vu. |

Not just back, but any position you need to improve. |

yah but the back is a major weak point for all people.but nobody should exclusively train 2 be good in on thing or position cuz u need 2 be good in all positions and all things for example be good in all guards and at all submissions and not just the armbar for example |

Of course it is. My point still stands, however. |

Yea, you're right. It's a great way to improve. You might want to ask your opponent to take it easy, cause first time I tried that with my brother, he went on to a RNC with full force, and I was like "argh... argh..... taptaptaptaptap" |

Yeah...I hate when people do that. Or when I'm trying a new move for the first time, and they feel the need to go as hard as they can, when I don't even know all the steps yet. |

EXACTLY.
I was trying some sweeps, and I tell my brother "take it easy, I want to try something new out". So I'm setting up for it, and he fricking throws my legs out of the way and mounts me, saying "that sweep sux, easy to mount you when you do this and that", and I'm like "dude, wtf, take it easy".
Younger brother, enough said lol. |
