https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTnW6TUeFds Glick's second of the three submissions here is the d'arce. We often discuss details of the d'arce here and his demo covers solutions to those problems, and if you really look at his arm positioning you can get a few more details. Look at where he puts the hand of the choking arm.

Please send your favorite outside HH defenses/escapes. Apparently I cannot do any and one of my two lockdown training partners has begun to realize this. My inside HH defense is ok. I grip fight and try and get my heel to the floor. Then I'm pushing uke's knees together while working to escape my knee. Once the knee is free the HH is essentially gone and I just need to worry about positioning. I try something like this for the outside HH but my foot gets trapped kinda underneath uke but he keeps a good grip on my heel despite my attempts to slip my heel. I guess I should be spinning here, instead? edit: sorry the outside HH is from ashi garami Count Roland fucked around with this message at 02:13 on Jun 12, 2021 |

The first half of this video, which covers outside ashi when they haven't exposed your heel yet, good way to get a feel for the position and the defenses: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DrjbaXt-nTo Then when you've got a feel for it, this video which is after they've already exposed the heel and they have a foot on your hip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WAabC2XuaqE

If it's outside(? regular?) ashi garami, there's always the venerable "just stick your other foot's toes into their elbow" technique: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiOEcI-Vu6M

This is awesome. Honestly I wish this type of poo poo would've happened in my old gym. We had people getting blue belts that didnt practice or spar half the time due to "injuries", but since they had enough check ins, would get their blue belt or stripes (mcdojo poo poo). https://www.bloodyelbow.com/2021/6/11/22529343/nate-diaz-hilariously-clowns-his-bjj-white-belt-students-after-rare-blue-belt-demotion quote:Ahead of Nate Diaz’s return at UFC 263 this weekend, one of his students shared a hilarious story that happened during one of the MMA star’s jiujitsu classes.

Seems like a dick move to me to be honest. I think belts are taken to mean way too much / too many different things to different people. Not sure what system would end up working better though.

I agree that the belts mean different things to different people and you have to take things like age into account, but I think there are some basics that are taught amongst most gyms to white belts (basic pin positions, Americana, etc), that if you dont know, or cant execute, then you might not be ready for promotion. For all I know, these blue belts might have also been in a school with attendance based promotions, which is I believe is bullshit.

But the thing is no one just showing up to train deserves to be humiliated like that. I'd bet money there are white belts that could tap me (here is the part that I admit to being a crappy blue belt) out there at any high level gym. And please don't take this as an insult but I'd be skeptical if you were to claim that there is no one at out there who is ranked lower but could tap you. Having to fight someone to keep your rank just does not sit well with me. Like you said there are more factors to consider.

There is disparity among people of the same and different belt rank based on age, sex, physical ability, etc. "Having to fight someone to keep your rank just does not sit well with me." Even if its based on knowledge, taking the other things I mentioned above out of account? I dont have a problem with that. Dont you spar so that your instructor can gauge where you are at in terms of your knowledge to get you to that next stripe/belt?? Keep in mind these blue belts were from a different gym. If its from the same gym and they are doing that, then yes I agree with you.

It might seem like a huge deal at the time, but blue belt is such low stakes taking it away from someone is just a dick move imo. If an instructor isn't good enough to get their students up to a certain standard after a certain attendance then they need a better curriculum and a better culture of improvement fostered at their gym. I'm not saying everyone just automatically should get new belts no questions asked after a certain amount of time on the mats, but if the gym has a good program it should be pretty straight forward for people to meet that standard consistently at a set rate. The higher the belt, the more scrutiny should be used but blue is a pretty broad range.

There's a difference between getting tapped by a lower belt and just not meeting the threshold of competency. Especially blue belt where that threshold is really pretty basic.

when you join a new gym you join new standards. i wouldn't want a blue belt if i was getting outclassed by a good portion of white belts on the mat. besides bjj has been nothing but an exercise in humility since the very first roll anyway. eat the poo poo, come in the next day and ladle up another serve.

Maybe the wrong thread but is anyone aware of shorter length grappling shorts? I'd like something not branded all over. Only thing in could find was the hyabusa hexagon mid thigh shorts. I'd like something a little shorter and the fabric looked weird to me but I like hyabusa's quality. I have been abusing a pair of their spats for a long time now and they've held up really well. I'm a skinny dude and I always feel like I'm swimming in my shorts. I get tangled up in them sometimes. I'm not yet ready to be spats or compression shorts only bro showing off my mooseknuckle like some kinda pre-roll distraction ritual. I have some ranger panties and I wear Officer Dangle level shorts when I run but I figure they'd be unsafe/inappropriate on the mats. Are there any shorty grappling shorts out there that aren't just compression shorts or oversized leftover board shorts with iron on decals all over them?

You can always wear longer compression underwear under the '70s-style short shorts if you don't want to risk a wardrobe malfunction. You can even buy them that way, e.g. these. Personally, I always wear spats under shorts to minimize mat burn on my knees, and it accomplishes the same thing.

I definitely wear full spats and wear them under my GI even. Was looking for something to toss over my spats. I was concerned I'd tear up cross country shorts and other workout britches scooting and rolling about but I'll give it a try. Thanks!

Half Sumo makes some great shorts. Bought a pair of these, and they are the best fitting shorts ive come across: https://halfsumo.com/collections/shorts/products/black-mamba-ichiban-pro-shorts-black The sizes seem to run on the smaller end too for skinny smaller people. Just jump on it when you see them release a new pair, cause they seem to go fast.

I'm a long-sleeve rashguard with shorts kinda guy in nogi. In yesgi if it's hot I go short sleeve, if it's cold I go long sleeve. As a general rule. Also it really pains me to say so but my favorite grappling shorts are a pair of fitted Shoyorolls that are basically slightly longer, slightly looser vale tudo shorts. I hate baggy board shorts and am not comfortable with having my junk protrude in vt's and so they really are a miracle and I will probably try to get more pairs.

Spats/long sleeve here. Sometimes I'll wear gi pants instead of spats. I used to do spats and shorts but I got sick of buying more stuff and doing extra laundry so now I just do spats.

No cup. Spats and shorts, or rarely just shorts. Short sleeve rashguard in the warmer seasons.

I wear shorts and longsleeve rash guard no leggings under. I feel like leggings help people catch me in leg entanglements. I also like to grapple shirtless if it's hot or tournament. In tourney it's because I like to put my hair stomach on my opponents face in North South.

A cup feels real bad on your spine when the opponent takes your back, I hate it. It's exactly like how they tell cops not to have handcuffs right on the back of their belt.

I wear a mouth guard if I'm doing anything grappling related. When I was a kid I broke a tooth wrestling and I'm still afraid. I have a nice mouth guard that I can talk a drink with and feels so comfortable that I forget I have it on sometimes and wear it to work so that helps
