Oh no
The students are just better than me
I am very sore
My BJJ coach is a different guy lol


You said 'fight' then say no it's not?

As Danny said, that's not pain, you need to get fit.


Yes there are many fake Krav schools . Maybe 2/3

And how do you differentiate the good from the bad?

My neck is super sore
Lats sore
Quad sore

Very minor but I don’t like pain
Get used to it if you want to get better.


You don't like pain? Well who does but maybe that's why you're not improving because you only do what's comfortable because you don't want to feel "pain"

I have to ask.....why're you telling us this?...you're sore after training? Yeah so what? Everyone is. I don't know if you want us to have sympathy but well we don't because every single person has felt the exact same thing. You just push through it and get on with it

How do you determine that your failure to learn is the fault of the teacher, rather than the student?

Good question ... I can tell by the quality of instructions and curriculum.
Does the class go over much tehnique that is useful to you.
Does the class just only focus on competitive rolling?
Does the class only go over advanced positions that are usually useless in a real fight

NO !!!! This is my hobby
It's your hobby but you don't like the things that will get you better in your hobby, which would be fine...but you also seem to want to get better in your hobby.

So either accept it as a hobby and that you're not going to improve. Accept that you'll have to push yourself to improve. Or accept that you're unwilling to do that, and switch to a hobby that you can improve in.

Or just keep whining about it, without changing anything.

Huh. So even though you don't actually have the training or experience to know these things, you feel qualified to decide that the problem is always the instructor. Never you.
Huh.
Imagine that.

Oh no..I have blamed myself many times as being a " slow learner " and not being the biggest, fastest or strongest around. I have put the blame on myself but , at the same time, I have had some lousy coaches

You've described not quality of teaching but focus. I don't compete, so a fantastic class on competition rules and how to exploit them is useless to me. But it can still be a fantastic class.

You put the blame on yourself, but don't change it. You can make yourself bigger, faster or stronger if you wish to.

So you think the entire class should be focused on you? Wow that's some ego

Maybe you do maybe you don't but I'm not on here whining and making excuses for myself about why I'm out of shape or why I'm not improving.....also seems your humbleness is starting to fade a bit
