Thanks friends. Yea I was ranked a while ago, but -100kg in the USA I'm pretty sure could be won by a skilled Japanese high schooler/mid range college player. It feels good to never have to worry about ranks or promotions anymore, I can just train now without getting questioned for sandbagging my belt.

So I bought Ribeiro's Jiu-jitsu University last weekend, and the first two sections (white and blue belt) really helped my game. I'm doing morning classes which seems to bring out the real hardcore guys, and the defensive and escape stuff I've read so far meant I was frustrating and tiring guys twice my size/ more experienced than I am. I still got tapped more often than not but being able to hang in there for a full 5 mins feels like a real achievement. As Ribeiro says, white belt is all about survival.

Yeah. It's learning where the water is. Blue is learning to swim I'd say. The book is amazing.

Our teacher said he made it to shodan in five, but implied that most people take it slower. So in Finland, six-ish years might be pretty close?

Speaking of competing, nothing says "train more you poo poo" like a clubmate taking gold in a tournament. We started out at the same time, but while he's been rolling, I've been fooling around with sword stuff.  Honestly, it's actually quite nice to have someone to benchmark myself against. Time to get on the mat and get myself in fighting shape for the next tournament.

When I take a good hit to the left side of my jaw in sparring, I have a weird warm-liquidey poppy sensation deep-ish inside my right ear. Never felt anything like it before. Anyone have any experience with something like this? I have sinus troubles so think that might be related.

VulgarandStupid posted:While the symptoms are troublesome, don't you think the greater question is how to stop getting hit in the left jaw? A little flippant for this thread. You're gonna get hit if you spar. Maybe only a good shot once in a hundred rounds, maybe once in 10.

Anyone have any experience with something like this? I have sinus troubles so think that might be related. I've had that happen. Does it make a weird dull roaring noise when it pops? It's usually when I've been in a humid climate for a while and my ears are plugged up. I just assume it's liquid shifting around behind the middle ear. Sometimes I can feel earwax falling out along with the other sensations.

Also, yeah. Excited to implement VulgarandStupid's advice while being punched and kicked, noone told me to tuck my chin and raise my shoulders before.

It's hard to teach nonsense when your students are fighting students from other schools. Mechafunkzilla fucked around with this message at 14:06 on Mar 15, 2016 |

Hey judo nerds, tell me about kawazu-gake. I found an old rulebook from '55 and it was already banned back then, but how far back does the rule go? Also, is there an official explanation why it's banned?

Looks like it would easily gently caress up your knee so I'd guess that's the reason.

That's clearly a Russian legsweep, so I assume it was banned for the same reason they've essentially banned morote-gari, because Russians were too good at it

I don't know the ban history on it, but it is 100% banned because of the threat to the knees of both participants. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a Kano-era ban. (Looks like it's one of the 27, not one of the 40, so it could be later) One of our kids got a dq for it just this past weekend in Edmonton when his opponent wrapped the leg to stop an uchimata and our kid fell over trying to free his foot. Ref thought that our kid initiated it as a throw. Now the kid has a sore knee and I've had to tell him 10x to immediately stop doing any activity that bugs it.

Mechafunkzilla posted:Competition rules. Shotokan is point fighting, Kyokushin is punching each other in the ribs until you're coughing and/or making GBS threads blood. Is Kyokushin really as physically taxing as people say it is? How does it compare to grappling arts like judo, or to other full-contact martial arts like muay thai or boxing? Obviously striking requires actually getting hit while grappling doesn't. I'm asking because I really like how straightforward and practical it feels to spar in judo compared to the arcane rules of karate point-sparring, but at the same time I feel like I might be underestimating the physical consequences of full-contact striking. And I guess another distinction to make is the intensity of sparring for training vs. actual tournaments.
