I can also function for large periods of time with only a few hours of sleep a night but I'll throw in a day where I sleep for 15 hours so it kinda balances out.

As far as being aggressive, at one point I decided I was just going to go for double wrist locks from everywhere and see what I could get going. After a few weeks I had a bunch of new sweeps, subs, etc in my arsenal. Just try poo poo and ask your instructors for advice.

It's funny how that sometimes works.

Woke up a 830am all psyched to go to a 1030am training session at my gym. Read & translated the post my coach made about weekend training, only does it on Saturdays. It's Sunday here. :smith:

Regarding aggression, I have the same problem especially when I haven't rolled in a while. I found remembering that your opponent is trying to kill you to be helpful. I also don't look people in the eyes when rolling because that causes me to be empathetic to their plight and not try as hard. Also getting a nice elbow to the jaw when they're in sidecontrol helps to remove any goodwill that may have existed before.

I just saw Danaher is coming out with a Kimura system as well. He's gotta be printing money off these videos.

Any other longtime wrestlers turned lovely white belts? I tend to gravitate towards passes, sweeps and such that are similar to what I already know. My professor recently started showing me hammer lock (what my wrestling coach called it, think Kimura grip) transitions from half guard and side and such. It clicks.

So anyway, my real question is if anyone could suggest more techniques that share similarities. Or at least good videos utilizing the hammerlock.

There is an idea of a Yuns, some kind of abstraction, but there is no real me, only an entity, something illusory, and though I can hide my cold gaze and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable: I simply am not there.

I’m going back to BJJ after having six months off due to “being a raging alcoholic” which I no longer am. New (better) school as well. Feels weird as hell, I’m expecting to be exhausted within 20 minutes.

Cardiac output training. Cardio qualities degrade quickly compared to strength.

Has anybody noticed significant changes to their game with weight changes? Juggernaut 2.0 and focusing on my diet has put 20 lbs of mostly muscle on this year. There's been a slight reduction in cardio but my passing is noticably harder to stop. Better top pressure, lots of brabos. On the other hand I'm a bit less agile off my feet, especially for inversions, and not quite as flexible. Over all it's fitting my current game a bit better (knee slices, cuts and Marcelo style heavy hip passing, lots of turtle, half guard, and wrestling up from the bottom) since my increasingly fragile body can't handle the Gumby man inversion game I used to play.

I’ve been mountain biking a fair bit (and I’ve quit smoking), I hope that mitigates the worst of it.

How do you people find time...

When you have kids it becomes a little more difficult to find time but I manage to squeeze in the following:

MWF (Fri Open Mat) - 7am to 8:30am BJJ - More of an intermediate than a beginner class at this point. 9am to 4pm work 4:45pm My kids BJJ class
Tue - 11am to 1230pm Judo - My coach is a Rokudan and this is the only time during the week to really get a full Judo class
Thurs - 11am to 1230pm BJJ - I get the most rolls out of this class since its the one with the most people that I attend.

Work is pretty flexible and allows for me to go to class in the middle of the day if I like.

Haha thanks man. I did do roughly five years with only a couple of weeks off at a time as well, I was probably a bit burned out as well as alcoholic.

Whats the word on Alliance as a whole? Like what do they mostly focus on as a franchise? I know their name but not much else. Moving to a new city here in Korea and possibly could end up at one.

They have a website but its all in Korean and my korean is limited as it is.

Edit - also a gym with a tv showing kpop music videos whipe rolling seems both awful and bad at the same time.

Is there a reputable place online to get Vagner's in digital only (I don't have a DVD player)? BudoVids has DVD only as far as I can tell, and I only found one other site that purports to offer the digital but it looks sketch AF:

Unrelated, but this kind of horrified me so I wanted to share: my friend just started going to an "urban combat" MMA gym, where they're teaching boxing/jiujitsu (along with gun combat?, and knife fighting??) . Except, every now and then, he's been asking me things like "so they tried a lion killer choke on me last class. It's been two days, should it still hurt to swallow?". :gonk:

Had a JJJ black belt drop into our gym recently to try out BJJ, and OH boy that was sure a treat.

Afterwards, Dude was like "This rolling stuff is pretty neat, but in a real fight I'd totally use too dangerous to use moves", and I thought to myself, I just saw you get triangled and arm-barred from guard, while you attempted to cross collar someone inside of guard. How can you believe you would do any better outside of rules ?
