    Focus on top game, passing, kimuras and mounting.

    And also focus on getting in the best shape of your life, for Jiu jitsu but especially for your health

    I am 38 and 200 pounds. I have horrible flexibility, but the more REPS you can get in with practicing warm-ups and rubber guard, the easier your body will respond. It took me 4 years to get rubber guard flexibility, and still a work in progress. Also I found if you do the technique correctly, most don't require as much flexibility as they appear to.

    Hey mate. If you're in Oxford look up Gavin Stewart. He trains at 10p birmingham, but he's also in a gym in oxfordshire. Also, a trip down to london could be a good day out. We've have our share of big guys training there.
