Anyone else get painless knee popping? This happens to me a worrying amount. Never hurts, feels like a knuckle crack, but it's so loud. Scares my partners who don't know it happens yet. Doing some pummels and trying to force some out while warming up can help but it doesn't go away. Figure one day they will just quit on me ? ( I'm 32m)

my partner had that. turned out her knee was 'J tracking' and wearing down the cartilage on one side of her knee. needed surgery to remedy.

not saying this is what you've got, just an anecdote.

Yes it is a rare opportunity but responding to Jizz Fighter on Twitter is just a open invitation for him to talk to me daily and I don't want to talk to him.

I just want to see this from the sidelines and maybe fight him in absolute brackets in the local tournaments but let's be real.

Side control. Reach under the far armpit and then bring your head back so you're reaching under their head to trap their far arm across their bodyin front of their face. Smash that until it's really tight and nasty, twisting their upper body towards you, and then flatten their knees on the far side so their hips are being twisted in the opposite direction. Top goes one way; bottom goes the other way. Pepper grinder. It's near the top of my list of moves are funny, and my list of moves that are cruel.

Joe choke is still #1, but that's so cruel that I really need to save it for people who I really hate or people who I really like

So we were playing around with a funky sub in class tonight, basically when someone turns toward you to defend the reverse arm triangle, you keep your shoulder pressure (so like, a reverse shoulder of justice) and then scoop their near leg and navy ride and move towards S-gripping your hands like a cradle. It's basically a really hosed up spinal lock (essentially the same action as a twister, except you're also folding them in half and putting pressure on their shoulder) and I dubbed it "the pepper mill" because it's spicy and you're twisting their upper and lower body in opposite directions.

I keep hoping someone will find a clever trick to completely neutralize the lapel game and it will die a fad's death and I won't have to learn any of it. Judo has already put restrictions on how the lapel can be used. If it becomes too completely dominant I wonder if the IBJJF would try something in a similar vein.

It warms my heart to know that I am inspiring others to introduce more pain and discomfort to their training partners.

I've actually been thinking about making a little tutorial video about shinlocks, since it's such a big part of my game (particulary when passing/attacking the guard) and yet seems to have almost zero traction in the wider grappling world. Would there be any interest in that?

I don't much care or the lapel game either but regulating it out is a terrible idea. In an effort to maintain purity Judo has instituted a number of byzantine rules over the decades that have only hurt the martial art as a whole. One of the main things that makes BJJ successful as an art is how deep it is. This allows for constant development and evolution. Putting in more rules would restrict further growth that eventually would make the sport more shallow than it is now.

no gi exists so that's an option. I think if the gi is there, let people do what they want with it. At one point spider guard was a bridge too far.

I'm not very experienced with lapel guard sbut I've started getting training partners to try them on me now and again, and I've been finding that I can survive and escape if I focus on fighting hands while keeping my balance, and then eventually I can take a kani basami backstep out to a leg lock attack and break the grip with a deadlift motion. Mind you this is low level experimental play, but the principles are there.

I wonder what Judo would be like with wrestling rules, ippons and the gi. Would it be single and double leg attempts all day?

It's probably Sambo, but I want more Judo leg shenanigans. :colbert:

For a while there it was viable to just get up an advantage point and then shoot lovely doubles to run out the clock cause it was technically being offensive, part of the reason they banned leg touching

My gym shut down due to this Coronavirus concern in Korea. (That super cult that has 300 cases stemming from their church is only an hour drive north of me).

If you have or can get a kettlebell then the simple and sinister routine is pretty good.

Jump rope is also nice if you have the space, mostly a high enough ceiling.

Pure body weight: there are some HIT programs that give a workout of the day. Can also do a 7 minute workout routine and loop through it 2x or 3x.



The 2nd two were what I did when I was traveling 4x a week. Plus weird poo poo like overhead pressing hotel furniture.

Cool. There is a guy named pavel that has a book called enter the kettlebell. It's a good source for learning how to do the exercises, if you've not used a kettlebell before. There are others of course but he's a common rec.

Highly recommend getting some material that teaches how to do the movements. It's sort of like a Martial arts, learning how to practice safely and correctly before going at it.

Even though it's a bigger investment, I think it's a good skill to have. For like 30-50$ you can get a good workout in almost any space with minimal equipment that doesn't have any maintenance or upkeep costs.

Welp - I either sprained or broke my pinky toe. We had a competition class yesterday and while I don’t care about competing, I was happy to be someone’s rag doll. Our instructor told the class to push the competitors but don’t hurt them. Two of the non-competitors, including me, got hurt.

We were doing a variant of king of the hill for takedowns but the competitors had to stay on the hill the whole time. Everyone else rotating in to try and take them down or get taken down.

I braced funny in defending a single leg and rolled over the outside of my foot and heard an audible pop. Not much bruising but it’s a bit swollen. I’ve got it buddy taped and have been icing it.

Gonna go to urgent care today for an X-ray to confirm exactly how careful I should be with it. Hoping I can just take a few days off and then stick to drilling ground work until it’s comfortable enough to put weight on.

Anyone got tips beyond:

- see a doctor
- actually rest or take time off
- buddy tape it
- ice and Advil

I intend to do them all because I don’t want this poo poo to linger. Just curious if others did anything else that helped.

I've done Kettlebell exercises. Just don't have one at home. There's a decent phone app called "Kettlebell" that gives a decent workout with them. I just wanted something else but given I can do Yoga and stuff in my apartment the two in concert should be good.

Pushups, sit-ups, burpees, body weight squats, lunges, etc should be plenty to keep you busy
