Love this thread. I'm a super noob with only a Mastering the Rubber Guard book and youtube videos to aid me in 10pjj so you'll pardon me if I have modest goals for now.
1 Month: Improve my lockdown game: I'd like to be able to hit Old School. Find a go-to option for mount escape that I'm comfortable with.
6 Months: My 4 year old should have started training. For each position, top and bottom (except for North South), I'd like to have some option that I'm comfortable with and that I can execute without having to think it through step by step. Open guard, closed guard, half guard, side control, mount, back-mount.
1 Year: Blue Belt? Down 25 pounds. Compete? Improved flexibility, look into hitting RG during free rolling. Have a scary lockdown. Multiple options for each position that I'm comfortable with a and can flow through.
2 Years: I'd like to be working the truck and blowing minds (locally) with leg locks. I'd like to be hitting Spiderweb from multiple positions. My 2 year old is 4: he should be starting BJJ around this time. My four year old is 6. When should he compete? Compete in no-gi?
5 Years: If there is no 10th Planet school I can train within five years from now, I'd ad least like to have a very broad game that confuses and frustrates very orthodox gi players.
10 Years: Black belt. My eldest son should be 14. If he likes BJJ, he'll have the support he needs to succeed in tournament.
Too modest?
