Any advice for nutrition for bjj?
This weekend wasn't about medals.
It was about a promise. 🥋
A year ago I stepped onto the mats. I'd already started losing weight, but jiu-jitsu is where it all came together. I realized this was never about the right size gi. It was about learning who I am under pressure, on the mats and in life.
This year I lost a good friend and brother. We always talked about testing ourselves, and he wanted to compete before his purple belt. "Let's do this together," he said. So we signed up.
At the first ever Compnet NorCal, five of us from a school barely a year old competed. All five came home with medals and lessons we'll carry forever.
Henry, this one was for you. 🤍 💙
Thank you to Professor Rich and his Rohnert Park school for hosting, and to the Compnet team for an unforgettable day.
By the end, we weren't separate schools. We were all GB family.
The version of you that grows is waiting on the other side of the thing that scares you.
Sign up.
Show up.
Find out.
My GB Brother Paul made me better! A lot of lessons learned and now to work and continue to progress
Oss 🙏

GB Tatami Talk 🥋
Some things aren’t about getting somewhere. They’re about who you become by staying in them.
That’s what the mats have been for me since coming back after 40. Not a finish line. Just the next class. The next round, even on days I don’t feel like going. The next time I get humbled and show up again anyway.
The belts will come. But nothing beats just being on the tatami.
Grateful for this team, this community, and everyone in it with me.

Got my 4th stripe. 🥋
Started at 44 to support my 7-year-old daughter who loves this art. Somewhere along the way I dropped 50+ lbs, started actually taking care of my body and mind, and found a community I didn't know I needed.
GB family, y'all are part of this. Thank you for every bit of encouragement.
Who else started BJJ later in life or because of their kid? Let's hear it 👇

i have a question regarding GB online subscription, I’m currently enrolled in ICP2026 but don’t have access to GB Online. I was informed the online subscription comes with the ICP program, am I incorrect.
I keep seeing references to a new GB2 curriculum. I could not find a location on the GB Online system for these changes. Can someone advise where I can obtain a copy of the previous and the new version curriculums? Also, have there been any changes to the GB1 curriculum to sync with GB2? Thanks.
Happy Mothers Day GB Family to your special moms in your lives
Oos!
