spacetoaster posted:Do BJJ places haze very often? Is that what this is? It just got uploaded a couple of days ago. I've heard vague stories about the bad old days with the first instructors in the states, specifically Atlanta, doing really lovely things to their students, but I think this level of crap is kept out of here or relegated to the super old school gyms. Marching Powder posted:nah i think it's a rigid adherence to an unwatchable ruleset that keeps it on the fringes. we need an ebi ruleset ultimate fighter to bring it to the masses. I agree, but I honestly think if quintet was able to get Joe Rogan to do their play by play or someone good and charismatic it would be that show.

Count Roland posted:They're actually really powerful. It used to be a move I could only get against weak newbies. This and the Bow and Arrow are the only attacks I throw at the back and have done so for the last four years. The only thing I added after seeing Gordon Ryan do it at quintet is to start smothering dudes with my hand if they're really trying to defend with their chin and that's increased both my submission success and the amount of people who don't want to roll with me anymore.

spb posted:Is there any reason why you can't just wrap your hands around your partners neck and choke them that way? As opposed to all these other fancy choking methods from mount or closed guard. No, but much like a hand smother it's illegal in IBJJF "[It's a technical foul...]When an athlete strangles his or her opponent ,without using the gi, with one or both hands around the opponent’s neck or applies pressure to the opponent’s windpipe using the thumb." So gyms may or may not like it and expect people to get really butt hurt about it. There are better ways to accomplish the same thing; however, it may be more effective if you're allowed to bounce your opponents head against the floor.

Count Roland posted:And speaking of smothering: are there any defense techniques against this? Its frowned upon or illegal in most places, but its legal in some competitions, in MMA, and on the street. I'm curious as to how guys deal with it. Depends, if you do it like Gordon Ryan does it, where you have one arm occupied by leg the other by your own arm you can really only defend it by moving your head, however; this exposes your neck to a strangle.

Jits is a two way street. I am in a RNC and the suns getting real low, may I should tap before I go to sleep. I have my partner in a RNC dead to rights and he's being real stupid. I should probably let go before he gets more brain damage and becomes stupider than he already is. edit: In a competition setting, screw it he signed a waiver and as long as what you are doing is legal as per competition rules do what ever, but in training you should seek to minimize any sort of damage to yourself and training partners no matter how stupid they're being.

Ghetto Blaster posted:Do most not just gyms go by Ibjjf rules for rolling? Every gym has their idiosyncrasies. My gym is more "be aware that white belts are dumb and spazzy so if you hurt them its on you, but other wise do what you want." and on the other side I've seen a few gyms that ban even straight ankle locks till blue belt. edit: The only submission that seems universally banned is neck cranks, and I can respect that.

I got a new job that pays well, and as a result I can afford to start up doing Judo once a week at a club close to me which I've been meaning to do for the last couple of years. So it'll be super fun being a white belt and not feeling like I need to actually know what I'm doing again!

I have no idea who he's talking about. As a dirty Creonte, lol. edit: If you have enough people who just straight up leave, it's probably the quality of the instructor either personally or professionally. If you have enough people who want to train with other gyms as well as yours consider it a compliment, because they're willing to pay to keep up their membership instead of straight up ditching and they believe they're getting something meaningful from your gym.

We do once after each set of classes, so three times per day once after morning, noon, and night classes. If they're not cleaning it at least once after every set of classes you should move on before you catch staph or something.

JaySB posted:Zero positional dominance. Willingly entangling and leg locking someone you know has no idea how to defend. He's legit just working over a white belt with leg locks. Would have much preferred to see him counter the wrestling with jiu jitsu and control and progress through some positions and go for different subs instead of just falling back to leg locks. That is positional dominance though? Anytime you can relatively simply damage your opponent and they cannot damage you is positional dominance. Not sure how anyone is supposed to fight back when one of their knees is blown out?

I dunno, I just feel really sleepy and just can't really shake the groginess. Someone passes my guard, and I curl up and just kinda take a nap while my opponent does a ton of work, gets tired or frustrated, and then I lazily hit a reversal like four minutes into a five minute round. edit: May start getting up at 5:00 to hit the 6:00am class before work like a savage, might be better.

Note: I am extremely flexible and the attack doesn't particularly work on people who have gumby feet, extremely high pain tolerence, or have ridiculously long legs, there's a guy at my gym that I can't finish it on whose about 6'4". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8FBybIk6Bg&t=149s Edit: also be careful on the extension, I've accidentallied some guys ankle using this, when he kept trying to scramble for a collar choke while I was cranking it.

If you clean them constantly, redo the mat tape every so often, and clean under the mat every year or so, I don't see why tatami couldn't last five or six years especially if you aren't a throw heavy gym.

HamsterPolice posted:Question: what do you guys look for or ask about when trying out a new gym? There are a couple of others in the area I might try out if the above gym doesn't impress me but I'm not sure what to look for. Same thing as if your starting out plus an addendum. Is the mat clean? Are the people douchebags? How does the professor teach classes? Does it look like he focuses mainly on his competition folks while all the hobbiests are left to fend for themselves? I'd also be looking to see how the professor tends to pair partners or rolling partners if he does it at all. Does he pair high belts with everyone to spread the experience or does he keep the Brown/Purple/Black segregated into their own pool? If you're a ultra/super/regular heavyweight and your professor and high belts are all rooster/feather/light weights does the professor mix his high belts in or does he keep them segregated? I like my professor and school, but if I had gotten my blue belt under him I would have been a technically inept blue belt, because depending on how my life is going at the time I can easily be a regular/super/ultra heavyweight and him and his high belts run between the 130-165 range and he segregates the big dudes into their own pool and it kinda shows.

Depends on how deep you wanna cut right? I have friends who cut like five or eight pounds to get down a weight class and that doesn't require much effort besides getting to within like three or four pounds for the weigh in and letting the rest get cleared from dehydrating and then hydrating after the weigh in. Most of us can lose a fair bit of weight instantly, by just eating super super clean for a few weeks, and then sweating the rest of the weight off and don't really have to do the super hard kinds of cuts where you have to watch down to the milliliter of water you in take. On the other side of the spectrum is my friend who walks around at somewhere around 200 with like 12ish% bodyfat, who cuts to around 190 for competition who says its super hellish and he eats pretty much nothing but chicken breast, brussle sprouts, and water, and the week before he has to measure out his water in take.

I don't understand why people think its a slam to lose against a 16 year old. That has been training about four years. That probably has trained the vast majority of the hours available every week. That has world class level training partners. That where probably personally involved and invested in making him good at jits. That are trained by one of the premier coaches in our sport. I mean if Craig Jones magically flew over here and said "Defense I detect great potential, me and you are gonna train for one year and I'm gonna make you into the best Jitsman in all of pajama grappling, and also here's your living expenses taken care of" I'd probably be beating the breaks off most Brown Belts at the end of the year.
