• Promotion. The Lab understands that promotions are important for the bjj practitioner, bjjLabs is configured to read your belt rank and ask if you have a promotion for that session. Promotions are stripe or belt promotions. Promotions are part of your timeline, so if you add a promotion you will see it on the Timeline module, as well as your Public Profile
• Positions, Moves, or Rolling Sessions. Here you will find all the moves categorized by main sections. Start typing and you and bjjLabs app will auto-complete. Since BJJ is so complex, moves are just described as the main move eg. Armbar is just and armbar, if you have different variations or setups that lead you to the Armbar, then you log Armbar.
