Caught Phil with a clean armbar today — not a fluke, not a scramble, but one of those moments where everything clicks. Timing, hips, angle… boom. Tap.
And for about two seconds I’m like,
“Okay… progress. This is working.”
Then the roll keeps going.
Phil turns it up, I make one bad decision, and suddenly I’m airborne getting reintroduced to gravity like I forgot how this game works 😮💨💥
That’s jiu jitsu in a nutshell:
- You can do something right
- Still get humbled immediately after
- And somehow that’s what keeps you coming back
No ego bruised. No complaints. Just another reminder that every round teaches you something — sometimes technique, sometimes survival 😂
Who else has had a moment where you hit something clean and immediately paid for it in the same roll?

That’s the good stuff. Let’s learn from it 🥋🔥
