I know what it's like to have someone go at you like their whole image depends on it.
Alot of the times, I'll just remind them "this isn't a competition man, you're not getting any trohpy's when we're done."
But if they insist, I just focus on staying tight on them and defending as long as I can.
If you only learn 1% of an escape or defense from someone using a move on you, after them getting you 100 times, you'll have 100% of the escape and finally they won't get you with that particular move. That's how I look at it.
It sucks, but you can choose to look at it like a gift. At least they are giving you some good experience for competitions or real fights.
Believe it or not, having skilled, rough training partners eat you up for a few months will make you much, much better in the end. Guys who are pretty good at getting submissions, they used to get me in the first 30-60 seconds. Now, the same guys take 10 minutes or more to tap me. And it's just gonna keep getting longer until, uh oh, they're the ones slapping the mat.
