Sure there were haymakers and you had your chin up at times and whatever - but still pretty superb for someone who just got into catapulting a fist at someone. I have never seen someone that quick after 2 months of doing either boxing or gay french kickboxing. Playing football and stuff probably helped apart from being just athletic.

KidDynamite posted:I watched a lot of boxing growing up. Plus you can see lots of glaring holes in my punches and defense. Like I said I had been fairly athletic before I got into boxing. I played football and fenced all four years of high school plus a bit of wrestling(up until I experienced my first oil-check and got really mad). Beginner question: Do oil checks happen in BJJ as well?

No they shouldn't just because BJJ players are better human beings than wrestlers. Besides that gi pants pretty much prevent them being that they're thick material.Ligur posted:Sure there were haymakers and you had your chin up at times and whatever - but still pretty superb for someone who just got into catapulting a fist at someone.

The fencing probably helped a lot with my speed, timing and judging of distance. It's really an excellent sport to compliment your striking at least at first.

Also someone might appear and proclaim "Hah! So you guys think that is a high level of martial-artism, u guys in this thrd r stupid fools" However to such person I say beforehand, it was just geeks with no training punching with someone with only apparently 2 months of boxing. When you put it into that perspective it's a different thing. I'm sure KidDynamite himself if cloned or someone else with say even 6-12 months of serious boxing sparring would have made things look a bit different. edit: fencing you say? Well that's a really good way to get your distancing and timing right, which, when you accept that speed is what it is, are probably as or more important in any shoveling or catapulting match

That was some time ago right? But often times you are still going forward and throwing these 3 strike combinations not worrying about it too much, good mentality IMO. Getting tagged along the way but that's how you learn, doing better than I think I would etc. It would be fun to see you go now. edit: really really would not put an untrained goon, nerd or semi-beginner boxer in there, with that guy, wearing grappling gloves

Sadly right now there's no boxing going on at all. Tore the labrums in both my shoulders.... Just training my core and legs everyday. I was getting really good according to my friends in the gym. So much so my coach approached me about getting a fight in before the Diamond Gloves tournament in October. Sucks but we move on a keep training.

How much does the headgear actually protect your head in striking sports? I've gotten involved in grappling mostly out of love for my brain and under the assumption that getting hit with padding is still bad for your brain. Does anyone have any anecdotal or even statistical evidence about the effects of sparring with headgear? Edit: someone should write a kickboxing/boxing faq for the OP Office Sheep fucked around with this message at 21:56 on Jul 20, 2011 |

Yeah I have bs TKD black-belt I got when I was 9 and I did BJJ for a month and a hlaf I got my first stripe but I started to dislike the instructor more and more. I would like to train more BJJ in NYC(Marcelo's!) but that train commute is just a killer to me. The fencing was 4 years of high school in epee. I was the captain  !

now those facebook videos are fuckin impressive dude i started out training with guys of that caliber as well and even after 3 months i was still tensing up to the point where i'd only have stamina for 90 seconds and wouldn't throw a 3 punch combo the entire time because i was too worried about protecting myself.

JimmyCaladro posted:I live in Utrecht. Rhaka, what do you do and where do you do it? Sounds fun to punch each other in the face. I uh, train historical fencing at Zwaard & Steen over in Nieuwegein. Did about a month's worth of Judo and Muay Thai at De Voltreffer before having to stop exercising for approximately 2 months. Probably not gonna go back there for the Judo, was pushing over 16 year old brown belts 3/4 of the classes. The Muay Thai seemed pretty on the level, though. Only did 3 classes but they definitely worked up a sweat, and there weren't too many people there, so got a good bunch of personal attention. I'm currenly working on getting a conditioning routine in order, and if I stick to train in Utrecht, will probably be hitting up BJJ after the summer at Jiu Jitsu Factory, because my one class there was excellent. Shame it's somewhat expensive though, pretty much means I won't be able to do striking alongside BJJ, if I want to keep up my fencing. Can I ask what MT/Krav schools you've gone to? I was thoroughly unimpressed by the Krav guy they've got at Olympos, and got a bit too much of a McDojo feeling at Protect Invest. Edit: Oh yeah, most of my friends who do MT do so at Lotus Gym, so, that place is probably on the level as well. Rhaka fucked around with this message at 23:06 on Jul 20, 2011 |

Maybe I'll take a look at that as well. After all these stories about fondling in pyjamas I'm all warmed up. At the moment I'm still a member of BMC Reflex Krav Maga. I really think I'll switch to either kickboxing or boxing though. There's on school that teaches both, so that might be worth checking out. They also have 3 or 4 hours each Saturday where you can walk in whenever you want and spar. I'm going to assume that that's generally a good sign? I wanted to go to Jan Brouwer Boxing, but sadly enough, they've closed apparently.

I got my first two submissions in BJJ class tonight (it's turns out it's way harder to submit BJJ guys than judo guys). My first one was a Kesa Ashi Gatame. I'm pretty pleased with this milestone. Edit: I'd like to please the people who don't know judo terms but I don't actually know what to call that submission in not Moonspeak.

I'm pretty pleased with this milestone. Congrats! That is actually one of my favorite subs on lower ranked BJJ guys, using my knee rather than my foot for the finish. They are so disoriented by a strong Kesa-Gatame that they don't even think to protect the arm. My favorite sub in matwork, Judo or BJJ, is to do what is essentially a flying arm bar from the knees. If a guy reaches out with their right arm before we engage, I will take a grip on their bicep with my left hand and then fake with my right leg like I am pulling guard (put the right foot on their left knee) and then toss my hips out and swing my left foot over their head as I pull back for the armbar. It's a magical, immediate sub. For advanced guys it'll only work every once in a while, but once guys know it is coming I will instead toss the left leg around their waist and work towards getting their back. This isn't as high percentage as the initial move, but it helps me keep people on their toes and make them think twice as I am pulling the armbar in. The downside of this though is that once I've been at a club for a few weeks everyone always just starts on their butt instead of on their knees when they are paired with me. Bastards.

I've only trained Muay Thai for a year coming up next month and lately I've been getting some serious burn out. I have absolutely no desire to compete at all and I'm starting to notice just how much it's really starting to hinder me now that we have alot of guys training for a smoker next month. We occasionally train some grappling (wrestling/bjj) from time to time and I've always liked it way more than Muay Thai. The only reason I actually started training with this club is because I thought it had more of an even split between grappling and striking but that really isn't the case at all. Hopefully I can land a decent paying job for next semester and be able to afford a real BJJ school but if not I'm not really sure what I'm gonna do. This kinda sucks.

They always go for single and double legs, against low level guys sprawling and guillotine will work so well it feels like cheating.

I can't submit people to save my life but I'm decent at passing guard and good at pins. A bad habit from judo I have to get out of is escaping into turtle. The worst thing is that through a combination of people in this class being bad at attacking the turtle and me having learned the basics of how to effectively turtle I only find myself in any danger against higher ranked people. So I'm not really being punished for it in sparring but I assume it will hamper my BJJ development. At least I assume it's bad since I'm the only one in class doing it. No one has really called me out yet.

No one has really called me out yet. That's not so bad. You can transition to guard pretty easily from turtle. Just learn those particular transitions and then nail a few guard sweeps. Learn a path from what you're good at back to the top, and spend a lot of time practicing each of those steps. Bad situation -> Turtle -> Guard -> Sweep to Top.

You should make it really hard for him to get those hooks in. Once the hooks are in, you're not in a turtle anymore. Put your head to the floor, make your elbows touch your knees. There shouldn't be enough space for him to get his hooks.
