Congrats! Fontoyn posted:Judo is fun and cardio is very important. My favorite completely non-related cardio training for judo is something like that : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VV7QGK-yTb4&feature=related I take a break after I've done a set of everything though instead of doing another run through it like he does. It really doesn't look that hard until you actually do it! I was also wondering how good wrestler would be and we had 2 that came to our club and while they were much better than the average white belt, one was may be around orange belt level and the other one around green belt level (and shooting for the legs wasn't prohibited). It's not that hard to sprawl and once your on the ground wrestlers have the same problem than any begginers have when they are faced with chokes and arm bars. Things that are probably very good and very safe to do on the ground in wrestling can put you in a very bad spot in judo. Basically, they have a huge advantage over newbies, but unless they are state level champions it won't matter that much after some years have passed. The biggest thing going for them most of the time is that they move well/fast and have very good conditionning.

I was planning on really working my cardio this weekend, but of course yesterday's sore throat has developed into a full on cold or something Forcing myself to not train while I battle this is gonna be hard, I've really become addicted to those endorphins..

In other news, my new glamorous problem that stops me training (and walking normally) is an ingrown nail on my big toe. It's the first time I've ever had a problem with my nails, and I caught it early, but guess who managed to get an infection anyway! <-- This guy!! Seriously, I like to think I have a fairly high pain tolerance, hell, I enjoyed getting my tattoos, but this poo poo really hurts.

To annoy the poo poo out of people who think touching your face is a good thing. Like the shitlord 3 week old white belt I train with who thinks my jaw is the best place to rest his elbow. gently caress that guy.

I use the blade of my forearm with a frame to move partners heads all the time, elbows to dig into their thighs when opening the guard, and our instructor encourages us to use the gi/arms to suffocate the person even if you can't get a choke in while full mounted. It's certainly unpleasant but that's kinda the point!

However, putting your knee where my skull and my jaw connect and pressing down is not cool. That poo poo hurts immensely.

One of the only subs I can pull from guard is to switch from a half triangle (with my leg already over their shoulder and calf on the back of their neck) to a deadskin mask, which is just me grabbing my foot and using the leverage to dig my elbow into the bone there. It never chokes guys unconscious but it hurts like a bitch. Not for training rolls, though.

It was one of those things I wasnt taught but picked up intuitively from rolling, when I quickly realized my freakishly long arms are a liability for armbars but useful if applied carefully. where the head goes the body follows!

Aggressively cuddling dudes is one of the most manly things you can possibly do. Plus, you can likely beat the piss out of anyone you meet. You have to offset that hyper-masculinity by doing things like wearing princess sashes and glitter and drinking cosmopolitans.

Doing it to annoy someone into lifting their chin or expose something to give you an opening is cool. I'm down with that. Good tactic. Doing it with no actual end goal in mind and an expectation that it's going to make someone tap, and therefore leaning your entire body weight into it and just laying there without actually working for anything else at all: gently caress you.

Our competition team trains with all that nasty stuff, as you're bound to run into those kinds of things in comps and it does occasionally work, especially in the lower divisions. That being said, we only really do rear end in a top hat rolling like that with each other - we're certainly not going to hold knee-on-face on the guys who don't really care for competition and just want to do some sweaty groundhugging. Even then, we only train that way during tournament season - it's good to know how to use and defend against dickweed moves in case it comes up, but it's way more important to just have good jiujitsu.

You don't always have to be a dick about it, but cross facing someone is almost always a good idea from side control/mount/knee on belly. If your opponent can't look at you he's going to have a hell of a time reclaiming guard.

Yeah, our classes have a lot of people come for the technique instruction, but only a solid handful of regulars actually stay to roll and pretty much all of them are either training for mma, self defense or jiu jitsu tournaments, so we roll hard. its nothing personal but when the timer's on, if its legal and makes your opponent experience discomfort, we do it edit: speaking of which, i'm definitely in love with this sport and I want to get into competition soon; our teacher encourages everyone do it at least once to experience the psychological difference, anyway.

So I wrote a while back my rib was hurting. I was stubborn and didn't stop practicing because I didn't think it was that serious. Luckily I was right and it's healed by now. Friday was the first class where I could practice and not feel like someone landed a sledgehammer on me every time I had my chest touched. Speaking of getting injured, I think my body is better overall at taking a beating, so I can shrug off pain the next day and go back to class.

I had the same experience. 1 year after the incident the rib started to hurt again and took like 2 months to heal (when I finally had to stop training for 2 weeks because of finals) so I suggest you stop for a week or two if it ever hurts again. -- Two days before I go train at a new club for the summer (cause mine is closed) I'm sort of stressed of training with a new coach since I only have experience at 1 club. Can't wait to see what is different, etc. I just hope it's as fun and relaxed as the one I'm going to right now! KingColliwog fucked around with this message at 21:53 on Jul 3, 2011 |

I have trouble doing what someone tells me, let alone the opposite of it, but the principles are the same so I know I shouldn't complain too much. I guess in a few years I could start playing left handed to put all my training partners off their game and I'll have the perfect book to start that with.

Eh, don't worry about it too much; I for the life of me still have problems doing forward throws with a left hand grip. Just grind it out for now, you may find something out.

After I tore my ACL I started wrestling right foot forward when doing drills and light sparring and stuff - as my left couldn't take the impact on the front of the knee for over a year. I got pretty good at hitting different moves in different directions, and it definitely helps my stand up to be able to shoot effectively off either knee. Though, the moves do vary a little bit. Left leg forward is usually doubles, swing/regular singles, uchi. Right leg I tend towards firemans, high crotch, low singles, ankle picks, head and arm throws. Mostly it depends on their stance, but it's always nice to have options to go either way. If only I could get that ambidextrous in my bjj game

Nierbo posted:Yamashita is left handed. Ugh. I just can't catch a break. The most valuable stuff in the masterclass books are the little things like how to alter a grip or where to place you hip during a throw. That stuff doesn't require you to worry about left/right. Just try to pick up a few of the small things and try them out in randori until they work. For me it was the Tenri University style head lift (on page 28 in my edition). That little tip transformed my Judo and made me really appreciate how easy it is to control somebody just by getting control of their head.

The teachers at my club also get after you if during a throw you aren't falling properly. Also learning techniques and during randori we support the person we're throwing so they don't fall as hard. I've gotten more hurt in BJJ because of overzealous arm locks than I have in Judo throws. Come to think of it I don't know if I would want to do judo with the kind of people that go to the BJJ club I attend because they would throw like it's a competition every day.

I get hurt more when we do judo throws at BJJ than when we do them at Judo. It's about as painful with BJJ people as it is with white belts. Once people get to orange or green belt their throws start to hurt a whole lot less. Also yeah, BJJ tends to attract more of the I GOTTA SLAM YOU AS HARD AS I loving CAN EVERY loving TIME WE TRAIN ANYTHING! type of people
