🙏 Thanks again for all the support!
Exactly what I did. I bought an inexpensive Hawk gi on Amazon that I used for a few months. Once I felt committed to BJJ, I bought a Moya gi (and waiting on another to show up).
I have only bought Gi's during Black Friday sales. Usually, they are over 50% off, so a $150 Gi would cost less than $70. Venum has great sales.
You had me at "lightweight". Like you, I don't want to roll around in a wet towel. If a cheap training gi rips after a while, that's better than an expensive bulletproof one that exhausts you. 😵
Absolutely! Especially at 46 years old. 😂😂😂
I am mostly worried about durability with a gi. My very first gi was the cheapest one I could find on Amazon and the only reason I got rid of it recently was our cat peed on it and it was impossible to get the smell out. It was extremely durable and had almost no wear or tear on it. In comparison to other high end name brands it was better in that regard.
I bought a $50 Gi on amazon I really liked
@@billywalendom what's the name of gi of 50$
Whats the brand and gi name?
Hawk did me well for my first year , looking to upgrade finally. I would buy another hawk for training any day.
Good to see you back!
Did you manage to get over the shoulder issue you were having a while ago? I meant to ask.
Got a partial RC tear I'm working around right now so was interested to know.
Ps. Would be good to see a supplement video at some point. I'm always interested in what physically active people use to keep going & keep the energy levels up in their 40s & beyond.
Yes...thanks for asking. Posting a video tomorrow on my injuries and what I do to prevent / help /adjust due to injuries. Just got some supplements in too!!!
Depends on who you are. I started BJJ two years ago and I was told an A5 should fit me, so I purchased the cheapest one I could find, Elite. The jacket barely fit, and the pants were too tight. I gave away the pants to another guy at the gym, and a few months later I gave away the top (it never fit right).
Fuji all-around gi came in A6, so I got one of those. I wore it for quite a while and it lasted pretty well, but it started to be too big on me and it wouldn't shrink (it was a cotton / poly blend). The pants were a bit tight when I first got it, so I got pants from another brand from ebay. I donated the A6 top but still have the pants from it - they fit me now.
I bought another brand that was all cotton on ebay that came in A6, and I still have two of them; I shrank them as much as they could be shrunk. They're slightly big on me but I can wear them still. The one I wear the most has some stitching issues now on the top, and pilling on the legs.
I can now wear A5 top, depending on brand; most A5 legs are a little tight so I stick with the A6 legs I still have. I'm mostly cycling through Fuji & Tatami tops, with a Datsusara every so often. According to the scale at the gym, I'm down to 280#, which is 70# lighter than when I started. I did a tournament in November when I was still a white belt, and was a little disappointed when the scale said just over 300# for the gi division and 299# for the no-gi when I weighed in. Obviously the one at the gym is a little bit off...
Tatami recently had clearance sale and I bought some gis for $40 each. Probably one of the only good things about being my size is it's often the last to sell so it gets marked down frequently. The bad part a couple years ago was actually finding stuff that would fit. You like Origin, but the largest size they have for pants is 42...which would definitely fit around my waist now but wouldn't have back then. One of the many reasons I've not tried them is I don't know if they'd go around my thighs (they're down to 30" around but that's still pretty big).
I honestly don't know whether I prefer light or heavyweight gis yet. I'm leaning towards heavyweight gis because I don't have to worry about weigh-ins in my weight class and I'm slower than basically everyone else anyway. I may decide differently when summer rolls around again, but I've not felt a huge difference even between the Tatami 550 GSM's and the Fuji 300 GSM's that I have. I like the Datsusara I have but it's a little tight still. I'm going to donate the A6 tops and maybe when the bottoms wear out the A5 bottoms I have will be loose enough not to bind me when I'm rolling.
__
Long story short, if you're buying for kids who are growing, get cheap because they'll probably not wear out before they're outgrown, and if you think you can lose some weight, get cheap because you might fit the next size down after some training as well.
I went with Datsusara as my first gi. Hemp is strong so rather invest in something that will last .They are on the higher end. Its very comfortable so im happy with it.
I’ll have to check those out. Thanks for the recommendation.
No problem bro 🤙🏻
I had a datsusara gi for 8 years and it’s a lightweight tank. Great durability
I'm about to buy this gi. Thanks
Good seeing you after a long while
Happy Easter 🐰
Stay safe good bless bro
Thanks, my man! Appreciate the support. Happy Easter to you and yours as well. 🙏
Welcome back! It's been a while.
I know, man...feels good to post a video. Life! I’m trying to get more consistent on these videos...if you have any suggestions on content, I’d love to hear them...appreciate you and your support! 🙏
Suggestions are anything bjj/working out related. It’d be cool to see you give your opinion on which guards you like and find yourself doing A lot. As well as your preferred offensive approach.
Got it...will do! Appreciate the ideas!
@@midlifebjj you have good content, I enjoy it. I’ve been trying to find the balance lately between working out, working manual labor in the Florida heat all day and bjj. Maybe that could be one too lol
Great to hear from you bro!!
Thanks, guys! Appreciate the support!🙏
May I ask how your shoulder’s doing? Just curious. I have to figure out bjj as a 42 y/o with a minor torn labrum in right shoulder (no surgery yet, just physical therapy for life :)) Learning quick I have to roll less and do more beginner technique drills until I can be more efficient and not tweak the shoulder. Thanks for the vids as always.
It’s gotten better but probably will never be as flexible as it once was...I do shoulder stretches to help with flexibility....whenever a shoulder lock is put on me, I tap fast....appreciate the support on the channel! 🙏
It was good to come across your channel. I am 40.5yrs and will be starting BJJ in a week or 2. After further use how is the Gi? I would like a couple to use more than my Fuji. Also do you have a any recommendations on no gi gear.
I love the Origin Gi…

Here is a No Gi video I did a while back…
ua-cam.com/video/Th6s09oivxk/v-deo.html
Appreciate your support!
Love the videos. Do you have any recommendations on instructional videos? Best, worst and cost?
I’ve never purchased any instructional….some guys from my school purchased the Danaher videos. I like the way he teaches. I’ve seen Gordon Ryan pushing videos hard lately and to be honest- if in were to purchase an instructional video - it would be from G. Ryan…
Wassup bro. As far as suggestions go for content, have you ever thought about taking a swing at narrated rolling content? Appreciate it.🤙🏼👊🏼
Appreciate the suggestion. I have thought about it....I follow this kid that’s doing this exact kind of content and he’s growing like crazy...Jedi Does Jiujitsu is his channel. My school is a little funny about cameras at the moment....but I think once restrictions lift - they’ll be more likely to allow video. It’s a great idea - not just for UA-cam bu to also see where my game is weak....🤙
@@midlifebjj Makes sense. Thanks for the feedback. Yeah I follow Jedi too and he’s killing it. There’s another channel you or others should check out for some good narrated rolls called “BJiuJitsuTV”, if you haven’t come across his vids yet.
Will check it out...haven’t heard of it...thx, brother! 🙏
All gis come out of the same factory in Pakistan lol ... I got a 40$ gi off ebay from a bulk distributer in Pakistan. My favorite gi . Plain black gi. No logo whatsoever. Way more durable then my tatami and 93 brand gi .
Not Origin. Origin gis are made in USA.
Ive been thinking about getting one of these thanks
No problem! Appreciate the comment! Get that 10% discount!
@@midlifebjj ive seen em on ebay for as low as $29!
Awesome…I need to check out eBay! Are they resells? Don’t get a knock off!
@@midlifebjj no they are from jayfo ebay store. Most companies that sell on amazon also have ebay departments set up.
nice content man! starting bjj when society opens up again! lessgo
Awesome! Let me know if you have questions...appreciate your support on the channel. 🙏
Hi, arę You doing some special workout on rings for bjj?
I mix it up. Right now I’m doing weight training and plyometrics…but i occasionally mix in rings. Yes, all my workouts are strictly for BJJ.
Are there gyms that allow origin Gis? Gracie Barra does not. I'm getting one as a gift. Told my gym coach I can't wait to wear my Origin Path Gi, he said that's only allowed during open mat, not classes...corporate won't allow non-Gracie Barra gis. I saw one of the jackets had Humanitia logo on it on their review page. can you sew on gym patches? I'm also 3 classes into my gym. Thanks.
Yes...I've never heard of a gym that didn't allow Origin gis...so weird but I've heard that Gracie Barra gyms are strict on a few weird things...well, its probably a money thing...One of my old coaches used to teach at one of the schools and told me some stories. You can wear Origin Gis in competitions (including IBJJF) so not sure why they won't allow them other than money. Yes, you can have patches sown on when you receive the Gi. Hope this helps.
That's so they can make more money
Hawk Jiu-Jitsu Gi - They used to cost $34 (now $48). I bought them cheap because I needed gis for different days. The only problem I had is that, after 6-8 months, the pants would split in the crotch. It was only $34, at the time, so it was a good deal for rotation gis. - Now that I'm at 10th Planet, I don't spend any money on gis, but have probably spent more on rash guards and shorts than I have ever spent on gis.
I saw a review on Hawk gis...man, rash guards, spats and shorts are just as expensive as gi’s...appreciate you man! Always appreciate the good videos you put out. 🙏
@@midlifebjj Yes, they are... - No problem and thanks! 🙏🏾🤙🏾
@InThisTogether Yes. However, some guys will wear gi pants, at times (1 or 2 out of 100).
Thanks for watching! 🙏 What’s your favorite Gi?
Dammit, you’re first again!
My bad...I’ll leave it blank next time...😂 appreciate you! 🙏
I’m a big fan of the Venom contender evo. Iv been using this one for about 6 weeks now.
How much does that one cost?
@@midlifebjj I paid around $100 but they also included international shipping as I live outside of the US. I don’t know wether half sizes are a common thing in GIs but I got size 2.5 and it fits like a glove.
Are you allowed to wear a gi that’s not from the bjj gym you go to so would I get in trouble if I wore that gi to my bjj gym?
Can you?
You should be allowed…I’ve never heard of schools caring what Gi you wear. Heck, I’ve wore gis from other schools and they didn’t care.
@@midlifebjj can you make a video on injury prevention and preventing cauliflower ear?
I can…and will….thank you for the video suggestion! If you don’t mind me asking, how old are you? This will help with tailoring the video….
@@midlifebjj I’m 16 I’m worried about starting bjj because I don’t want cauliflower ear
the overpushing of the affiliate link to origin gi ruined the vid for me :(
Sorry about that…I’ll try to do better.
@@midlifebjj
Origin is great though. Made in America too! Support companies that don't have slaves making your clothes!
🙏🙌
I just wear a gi when watching cobra kai
😂
So what’s the tee shirt brand? I’m always searching for a good tee.
It’s an origin tshirt…they’re made in the USA…their motto is “from the dirt to the shirt” meaning they procure everything from the US and make the shirt in-house.
@@midlifebjj I didn’t see the item on their website. I own the factory jeans and 100% love them. The Delta jeans a tad to snug fitting for me.
The t short should be part of the Jocko deal. I think you have to spend $99 to get the shirt for free….thinking about grabbing those jeans myself!
My gi was 100
It's up to $50
Everything is going up…
I just got it for $39, and the A2 was ONLY $25!!!!!!!!
👍
Or ...... you go to 10th planet
