I trained for 7 years in Shotkan Karate. I stopped and now have trained for 6 years in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. My main focus is learning how to win a fight. Discipline, fitness, and the other stuff is important - however secondary.
My problem is that I am reaching a point where I am bored. A large part of the boredom is that (without radically increasing my training time) I have probably reached the limit of my ability in grappling. Sure, I can expect to see incremental improvement if I stayed with it for longer. However, I wonder if it is worth the additional investment of time?
Can anyone relate to this? I am not saying that I am some sort of great grappler. I am saying I am about as good as I am going to get (within reason). Maybe my time should be now spent on another aspect of the skills necessary for fighting.
