How does one compete as a purple belt one day then compete as a blue at the next competition? How is this not sandbagging?

How the heck do I sweep from half guard when my opponent is angled across my body such that I cant take their back? At the moment I just stall until they move off balance enough for me to bridge and roll but I feel like a jerk when I'm just stalling.

So does folkstyle wrestling really have even more rules than judo?

Work for a combo move like osoto-gari into sasae tsurikomi ashi or kouchi gari into ouchi gari or kouchi gari into a hip throw/hari goshi/tai otoshi you get the idea. Avoid turtling as a tactic because if your opponent has even slightly good ground work you could end up in a choke before you even get to the ground, also you cant attack from turtle unless your opponent is dumb and gives you their elbow. And judo judges are unpredictable in small comps and might give your opponent time to break your turtle if he is aggressive enough. Two things I learned from my first judo match: 1 - be light on your feet or you you won't maintain your balance 2 - be prepared for some serious grip fighting - you cant just walk up and take a sleeve and lapel grip, you WILL have to fight for grips, I was naive becaue this was what we always did in randori and got manhandled like a bitch in my first match. Edit: if you do want to go for the fake right, fake right, go left tactic use soto makikomi as your left handed throw

The first thing that comes to mind is Cystic Fibrosis but it's probably Cross-Fit.

canoshiz posted:I'm still pretty new to judo but I was talking to some of the higher ranked belts and they told me that harai goshi pretty much replaces o goshi at higher levels. The first two throws I learned early on when I went to practice before I owned a gi were o soto gari and o goshi. Then I pretty much never used o goshi again until the yellow belt test came around They probably meant uki-goshi is replaced by harai goshi, not o-goshi. As the story was told to me: Kano's favourite throw was uki goshi but people started learning to step around it so he switched to harai goshi to prevent them stepping past.

swagger like us posted:Hey just a question or two here, I've been out now since February cause i stupidly dislocated my shoulder a bunch of times and didnt let it heal. I got surgery just two weeks ago and doc said Ill be out till June. He did mention the possibility of light rolling or techniques earlier than that, but I think I want to find a Physiotherapist who has some sort of background in Wrestling or grappling so they can give me a more informed answer. Given that one, Im in this poo poo because I went back to training too early after the first dislocation, and two the two times I dislocated my shoulder was first in a drill, the second time in practicing a technique, so Im a little hesitant about it. What would make it non-bjj/judo/sambo? I don't think there is much room for another ruleset without adding striking.

The two local BJJ comps I have been in both had entries from judo clubs.

Rolling no-gi last night my opponent was inside my closed guard and had gripped around my head/arm (like someone might do from side-control) and I found that I couldn't sweep from that position, and he was stronger than me enough that I couldn't break his grip around my arm/head. I was trying to duck his arm and take his back but couldn't get out from under. I couldn't escape my hips to the side because he had my shoulders pinned flat. What should I have done? I ended up sinking a triangle (but he was saved by the bell) but only because he eventually tried to pass guard. If he hadn't tried to pass I would have just been stuck there.

Thoguh posted:Another thing to consider is how widespread BJJ is. The top competitors come from only a small handful of countries. To be considered for the Olympics BJJ needs to start having champions come from all over the world, not just parts of it. This is a really good point.

This may not help you, but I tend to err on the side of too big, then put it through the spin dryer after each wash until it is down to size.

Judo may be getting ruined by all its anti-wrestling rules, but at least they understand the importance of just slamming the poo poo out of your opponent.

I guess Relson's illustrious MMA record speaks for itself.CivilDisobedience posted:BJJ seems to equate chokes and joint locks while forgetting about pins entirely, Judo seems to prefer to pin first and then sub when the opponent gives them a choke or joint lock while escaping (but only certain subs are fair game), etc. You can't win a BJJ match with a 'pin' (unless you're up on points and time is running out), so you take the points and then work for a submission. In Judo you can win a match by pinning your opponent for 25 seconds, so why risk losing the dominant position by attempting a submission when all you have to do is flatten them out and sit tight?

What doesn't feel right about it? Are people escaping from it too easy? If so, how are they escaping?

White belts SHOULD pull guard at training, and then focus on getting a sweep. Otherwise it's two guys on their knees wrestling for half of the roll.

I'd like to add a +1 for Fuji. Mine has lasted longer than any other 'cheap' gi I have owned in the past.
