    21 years I've been training, but I've stopped trying to progress in the traditional sense. Too much 'politics'.

    I´m White Belt :p. Ikkyu.
    What kind of politics you are talking about?
    I realized after 7 months training that competitions can be bad for the progress in judo because you develop muscular explosion and strenght but forget the quality of the techniques...
    There´s too much stuff like associations requiring fees for competitions, the weight categorys (it goes against the idea of using judo for take out bigger persons).
    The better is just take the classes and pratice everyday :D

    I'm a blue belt in Judo. I sometimes wonder whether I'll ever make it to black....

    I didn't. Probably should have made the extra effort to build up the points, but my heart just wasn't in it any more. I've not regretted moving on to jujutsu though, so I guess I'm happy with my new "home"
