So I've been part of an MMA gym for just under a year. I only box there although the head trainer has been trying to get me to come to BJJ for a while now. The BJJ guys at our gym are some of the nicest and I really love the camaraderie. I am definitely getting interested.

Anyone got some good BJJ stories of getting into the sport and evolving? Life lessons and stuff like that? I am definitely keen to explore it more but I must factor in that I'm 30 and probably should focus on mastery of boxing as opposed to taking on more.

PS I found the subreddit for bjj to be overwhelmingly skeptical of older guys taking up the sport and a lot of talk of injuries.
