    Hi all just thought I would introduce myself... My name is Crystal. I have only been training a couple of months. I train at home with my husband, Trey Rushing, who trains with 10th Planet Gulf Shores. I have been reading the forum for a while but just recently signed up. :-)

    I don't know how many times we have to go over this. It's not a sandwich, its a turkey pot pie.

    (and nice school name!)

    Hi all. Just thought I would introduce myself. My name is Crystal. I have been around jiu jitsu for years but made the decision to start training with my husband, Trey Rushing, a couple of months ago. He trains at 10th planet Gulf Shores.

    Welcome Crystal! You will find there are only a few females that check in regularly on the forum but the guys are amazing at answering questions and giving advise.

    Awesome. Do you plan on competing? Obviously not everyone who trains competes. I love seeing/hearing of 10P girls kicking ass though. There's not too many of us around.

    I would like to. I am considering entering in one in November. I hope that will give me enough time to prepare myself physically and mentally.

    Just do it! I did my first at about my 4 month mark. Keep in mind there are fewer women doing this sport so you have to take fights/matches when you can. And a lot of times they are not ideal brackets. My first tournament there was no one in my weight class so I had to move up weight classes to open weight. I ended up losing my final match to the heaviest girl by ref decision ( she got top position and literally sat there!) Took Silver so I was happy.

    Train hard and you will know when you're ready.

    Thank you! I really wish I had a gym closer to me (and a babysitter) so I could get in more reps with a variety of people. As it is now, I get it when I can. Usually when Jesse goes down for the night. Not ideal but gotta do what ya gotta do. Lol because of that though is why I am shooting for the November comp.

    Of course!!
    You obviously have a gym and a team, but if you have any questions, I am around.
