Physicality vs. Tactics

​Jiu Jitsu is more difficult for those who are not physically gifted. All else being equal the more physically imposing will win an altercation. What allows Jiu Jitsu to be effective is a gap in skills, knowledge, and strategy. If someone is larger, faster, and stronger than you, you will need a significant gap in the tactics, skills, and knowledge department to overcome the deficit. At white belt, brand new people will come in and beat you just by shear force of will, and this may continue for a long time. In order to overcome a physical disadvantage you must gain a tactical advantage. That tactical advantage must nullify the physical strengths of your opponent. If you feel like you are not able to win physically you must transition to achieving victory through strategy. Ideally you can do both.
