Hey kenprimo how long you been doing this?

[kenprimo]

over ten years now

[dannyboyemo]

u look kinda like... ben stiller

[freespadersuggs]

freaking perfect advice. thanks

[marcellocmonteiro]

I agree 100%

ive trained No-gi jiu jitsu for 3 years, and just started training in the Gi. It's a huge ego check to be a white belt and having to go through each stripe ceremony before ranking up. Then gets even worst wen people think im sand bagging it.But, i love training in the Gi and look forward to my promotion when ever it comes

Thanx mate!! U r very good!! R u coming back to Dublin??

Best advice you could possibly give to anyone starting any form of martial art or combat sport!

[SenseiMattKlein]

So true Ken. Ego is not your friend in the martial arts.

@undeadpresident 5.5-7 years with a GOOD coach. If you train  hard 5 days a week, and are regularly on the medal stand at tournaments.

Hey Kenprimo, Ive been training no gi for 7 yrs now, 1 to 2 days a week, my game is pretty good, Ive tapped out blue belts and purple belts along the way, but still haven't gotten my blue belt, is that normal because I train no gi?

[undeadpresident]

How long does it take to earn a black belt if you train everyday?

@kenprimo hey ken ! i see you do some simple basic technique videos ... i had one question ... if your about to pass the half guard into side control and the opponent is push your hips back with his hands , what do you do ? this stopped my last week haha im just a begginer . hope you get this even though this is an old video i might post again on a different video . thanks keep up the tips !

What do you do when you have to wait over three months for a bankart repair to heal? Not to mention I needed the bankart repair after dislocating my shoulder in my first tourny. Sucks ass. All I wanna do is train but even if I try to scratch my nugget with that arm I risk ripping the sutures in my shoulder socket.

Guess I could work on leg flexibility, have any stretching exercises you can recommend?
