my school recently updated our curriculum, i thought /asp/ might be interested in some of our training methods. all the basics have progressions now, including strikes, grappling and weapons. weapons besides the staff can be learned in the core classes now, with a student choosing to specialize in sharp, blunt, or hinged weapons.

>chuan fa (kempo)
>10 years

So if I had the choice between BJJ and traditional jiu-jitsu, which one should I choose? The TJJ techniques look more practical in a street fight, but the training methods look like shit (static drills, light sparring but only for throws).

you really need to start using better pictures for these

>The TJJ techniques look more practical in a street fight

just a friendly reminder that the B in BJJ stands for Brazilian and they got some tough streets. juss saying tbqhfamalam

>>2130005
And if I was going to train with a tough, street-hardened Brazilian master that was raised in the favelas and had to fight for his life every day, there would be no question that BJJ is the way to go, but that's not the case. In all likelihood the teacher would be someone who has never been in a street-fight in their life and has only ever used BJJ in the context of a BJJ competition.

>>2129514
I need help. Can any of you help me find a martial gyms in the 92840 zip code area? I'm thinking of a couple gyms, but doing research is hard and I'm not particularly sure what would be good.

I'm leaning towards Garden Grove boxing(1.4 miles away, fairly cheap, and everyone looks fit, but I don't think anyone competes)

A new UFC gym also opened in my area, but I've heard those are terrible. There are a lot of judo, BJJ, mma, ect places in my area since it's SoCal but I'm having a lot of trouble deciding

>>2130005
>they got some tough streets
if you're poor

jiujitsu is a bourgeois activity for the wealthy, it isn't widely available to flavela monkeys

japanese jujitsu is actually battle tested in war

>>2130015
in that case, i'd look into 10th Faggot Jiu Jitsu.

>>2130029
But I already master that one...

>>2130027
I heard bjj is super cheap in brazil like $5 a moth or something ridiculous but I guess that is too much for people in favelas anyway

>>2129986
It all boils down to the quality of the instruction and the general atmosphere of the school.
I'd say bjj, but I'm biased toward bjj, so try them both and chose.

>>2130432
whelp, upon researching I just learned $460 US a year is considered brazilian middle class

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA

>>2130554
Pls no bully the huehues

>>2130027
And bjj was tested in vale tudo and mma. Should I post the two hour long video compilation of bjj and other grappler winning street fights or are we past this point yet?

>>2130917
I really resent how any time you dickriders see someone win a fight by wrestling you immediately claim bjj supremacy, even though 99% of the time it was just a doofus thrashing around and accidentally wrestling his way to victory
>vale tudo
oh wow, how incredible, a brazilian sport full of brazilian fighters in brazil saw a lot of brazilian jiujitsu getting used. Imagine that
>mma
took a back seat to wrestling the literal moment gis were banned

check out this sweet bjj bro, seriously a textbook back take he immediately follows up with a takedown, then watch as he seamlessly slips into side control and finishes with a choke

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xGe1Wm83kkI

>>2130954
>thrashing around and accidentally wrestling his way to victory

you don't watch much mma do you? Nobody wins an mma match with wrestling by """"""accident""". The point of wrestling in mma is to dictate where the fight goes which is usually laying on top of the other guy. i'm just glad wrestling in MMA has mostly been diminished over the past few years.

>>2130986
in street fights though. People see some dope tackle another guy and start choking him and they are so quick to yell WOW CHECK OUT THAT BJJ
when it's just naturally how people with no training at all fight

haymakers
tackles
strangles

if you see a fight won with any of those, assume the guy hasn't done any training

>wrestling has been used and developed for thousands of years
>suddenly irrelevant
you need to just shut the fuck up, you're embarrassing yourself

and wrestling isn't seeing a decline in MMA, grappling all together is. If anything BJJ is seeing the steep decline in usage when compared to wrestling which is what your champions are doing now
I don't think there are any sitting champions that are bjj fighters, it's all strikers with a few wrestlers mixed in

>>2131181
>>2131181
>title reads "bjj/GRAPPLING"
>marine grapples with a guy who has a knife and removes him from the store without getting cut

So are you unable to read or just intentionally being dense? It's fine though, just keep cherry picking.

>>2131188
he also has no idea what he's talking about since bjj is played for points too. I don't think he has ever competed if he even trains at all.
the whole bjj meta is about positioning and scoring points.

and there is no such thing as a submission only bjj tournament, there are submission only GRAPPLING tournaments, it isn't exclusive

>>2131202
you have a very low standard of what you call grappling. He did exactly what I said people do earlier and just pushed the guy out the door like a retard, he didn't use any actual techniques to control him. He grabbed the knife hand as anybody would, cutting himself in the process, and muscled him out the door

>>2131193
>wrestling which is what your champions are doing now

i'm embarassing myself? you clearly haven't watched mma in 10 years. GSP, Jon Fitch and Ben Askren have all faded into obscurity. the only current champion that came from a wrestling base is Daniel Cormier.

>>2131203
im pretty sure he's the mmautist who thinks only training in mma with a bjj is worth any time, an d he's going to personally remove the gi and belts of anyone who trains in something different

>>2131188
Not him, but this whole shit flinging fest started because of the asshole saying that "bjj wasn't battle tested and mma/vale tudo doesn't count"

>>2131193
>there's no sitting champions that are bjj fighters

Maybe not primarily but every fighter still trains it because if you don't know jiujitsu you're going to get fucked up by someone who does. Its a great base for ground fighting and even a striker lile connor mcgregor has a brown belt in bjj.

>>2131210
prepare your asshole, this might hurt

Stipe Miocic, wrestler
Daniel Cormier, wrestler
Michael Bisping, striker
Tyron Woodley, wrestler
Conor McGregor, striker
Max Holloway Striker
Cody Garbrandt, striker
Demetrious Johnson, wrestler

the best case you have is aldo who isn't even active right now, he does do jiujitsu but has only won 1 fight by submission and the vast majority has come from knock outs from his striking
and nunes who is in the same boat, she's a dumb brawler that nobody ever sees grapple, but she's off set by johanna who we obviously know is a striking expert, and holly holm who is also a striking expert

bjj is less relevant today than it has ever been, Now post a time stamp of your belt so you can at least prove you even train and I'll decide if I want to keep talking to you

>>2131208
>cherry pick cherry pick cherry pick

There's an hour and a half of footage. I'm going to add to that every time I have to respond to you now.

How many of those guys won by wrestling? I think DJ might have the most submission wins tho.

Now post a time stamp of your wrestling belt.

>>2131260
where was the bjj? was it the part where he got punched while standing? when he didn't change level before attempting a takedown? when he charged bent over at the waist head first and got caught in a headlock? when he tripped over the other guy and accidentally ended up on top of him? when the guy on the bottom fed him a reverse arm bar and he didn't take it because he didn't identify the position? the part where he punched the guy in the back of the head a bunch of times?

must of happened too fast for me to see
>>2131268
>Now post a time stamp of your wrestling belt.
lol, I kickbox, do karate, bjj, and judo. This is why arguing against me isn't going to work. I'm knowledgable and can see through bullshit.
I actually compete and train 5 days a week

>>2131278
i'm actually going to defend that video because I could tell right away that whitey knew what he was doing. he went into guard and moved up to top mount. doesn't mean he's a trained in anything specifically, but he still understood positioning

that anon is still wrong however in all his other arguments

>>2131278
what bullshit? i said wrestling is slowing fading away and it is. maybe it's because the defense is getting better as the years progress. maybe it's because the big dog UFC doesn't like that shit anymore because it doesn't draw.

I'm knowledgeable too. I don't play basketball 5 times a week but that doesn't mean i can't break down an NBA game or play.

>>2131313

The belt holders are stacked with wrestlers, there are no bjj fighters among them. The only place you see bjj is in the supplementary training of strikers just in case they get caught on the ground by a wrestler so they can try to force a scramble

>>2131320
>draw
Dana White uses the term "move the needle" but i don't like it because it probably means his penis.

>>2131341
>The only place you see bjj is in the supplementary training of strikers just in case
replace bjj with wrestling and we're pretty much in the same boat.
there's no more pure wrestlers in MMA anymore. you're not going to convince me that Woodley or Miocic are wrestlers. wasn't their last fights won by KO? DC might be the only one and he breaks his hands from striking every fight.
you gotta face the facts, onii-pham.

>>2131357
the facts are bjj is irrelevant except for supplementary training, and wrestling is the dominant grappling style used in MMA today Turns out fighting from the bottom on purpose is a fucking retarded thing to do, who knew?

>>2130026
If you can make the commute, there's this really awesome guy in Glendale. His name is Edmond. He's awesome.

>>2130027
Japanese warfare was highly ritualized and unrealistic. That is why the mongols ripped the samurai apart, and the Japanese had to rely on the weather to save them.

>>2131278
Well there was the part where he tackled him transitioned from side control to mount, allowed white shirt guy to roll over without losing top position then sunk his legs inbetween white shirt's thighs so that he couldn't get up or roll over again then beat the shit out of him.

I swear, you're the most intentionally dense arm chair commentator I've ever met. If they don't do everything to your exact specifications then it's not bjj.

>>2131378
you probably don't do bjj which is why you might not realize this but;

It's supplementary training at this point for a lot of top mma fighters because they already took the 8-10+ years to get really good at grappling.

If you're starting from square one it certainly wouldn't be supplementary training, you'd be getting submitted every fight or taken down and beaten up if you didn't know what you're doing on the ground.

Also it's WAY easier to not get choked or submitted than it is to do the submission on someone else. Defense in grappling is much easier than offence for the most part. So once you know your opponent can't submit you, and you know you're not going to take him down and try to submit him.. there's no reason to focus too much on the ground game.

but calling it "supplementary training" isn't taking into account the years and endless hours they spent learning it before they became professional fighters.

go watch randy couture vs james toney to see how an expert striker gets dealt with thinking they don't need to train any bjj / wrestling

more importantly, see pic related.
This position right here happened at the beginning of the fight, all he had to do was grab the tricep, knee on belly, and put his forehead down and he has a tight as fuck armbar sunk in. A 6 month white belt should know that, instead he struggles around like an idiot for another few minutes.
he never trained, and neither did you since you didn't recognize the position either

Grapplers are drama queens, shocking

You don't need to be a black belt to compete at the highest level of mma. you just have to have be able to defend against it. same with wrestling.

>>2131823
Boxers are really good at defending against punches, mauy thai fighters are kinda good at defending against both punches and kicks. Boxers have no answer to kicks.

That about sums it up.

be unbiased and objective
- the coaches Are knowledgeable
- the coaches are able to evaluate students objectively
- the coaches can use their knowledge to solve problems and answer questions logically
- the physical conditioning methods follow scientifically valid facts
- in turn, people get better, people have fun, because of the fact that that's what makes a good gym, not despite the fact

>>2131989
>Boxers are really good at defending against punches,
In specific ways. They're not good at defending against punches with elbow blocks, they're not good at defending against punches with kicks, they're not good at defending against punches with parries, they're not good at defending against punches with a variety of blocks.

>>2131801
he didn't do any jiujitsu, another fine example is he steps over the guys legs to get into mount instead of knee cutting across the belt line, that's a cardinal sin, which you should know

>>2132409
>defending against punches with kicks
How

>>2132409
Boxers are better dealing with punches, that's the entire sport.

>>2133085
well yeah, as long as those punches are delivered to the front of the body, above the belt, by the front of the knuckles, on a hand wearing gloves and wraps that take up a lot of space, while also wearing wraps and gloves that take up a lot of space too

>>2131857
Hey retard how the fuck do you think these guys are able to "defend" against wrestling? Pro tip: it's because they fucking wrestle. Quit acting like it has gone the way of the dodo when fighters who neglect it are still getting caught because of it. MMA fighters have to become well rounded in everything. This striker vs grappler bullshit was decided in a little competition called UFC 1 and fighters have become more diverse in their approach ever since.

Only if you mean serious damage. You'll get an injury eventually but the seriousness will depend on training method, sparring partners, and luck. And how hard you push yourself obviously. Recovery is super fucking important. You're probably not gonna fuck up your acl or get punch drunk though, unless you have shit luck or your body tells you to fuck off.

While I myself have no training in Krav, I am very close with someone who has been training Krav from a very young age, he's technically not an expert or patched or whatever Krav lineages do, but I've never sparred with someone who 360 defends better or walks me down more efficiently. Admittedly most of Krav is "dirty" because it was designed to be only really used for lethal situations, nut kicks, eye gouges, etc.

What do we think, does it look a bit McDojo? I personally don't think so since they compete, still I think I'd ask, I mean, there's a few photos of the juniors which look pretty cringe but adult wise I suppose if I can't do Judo then getting back into kickboxing and doing a bit of BJJ or Wrasslin' would do. I just want to get my moneys worth.

Pick a base, branch off with opposite technique

For instance: Start BJJ. After a bit, see if there's any striking gyms. If your dojo also teaches striking take both. There are "MMA" gyms that give you fundies of octagon fighting.

Fuck that stupid ass bullshit. The best base for MMA is fucking MMA.
You learn your striking stances along with your wrestling stances.
You learn your jab along with your front kick.
You learn your elbows and knees with your takedowns and submissions.
You learn your stand up game along with your ground game.

What kind of stupid ass bullshit mother fucker is running a MMA gym, and then teaching people some martial arts and then expecting the students to learn how to mix the martial arts themselves? A lot of people, actually, because people are uneducated, stupid, delusional, ignorant, shithead pieces of shit.

>>2146289
>expecting the students to learn how to mix the martial arts themselves
that isn't what MMA means

mixed martial arts is the format, as in it's an open competition.
there are karate competitions, boxing competitions, wrestling competitions and so on
Mixed martial arts means it's inclusive and you can do what ever you want, it doesn't necessarily mean the fighters are mixing martial arts together, and for most of the history of the sport, they weren't.
People only recently stopped being hyper specialized and going for the all around approach. But that created a jack of all trades master of none environment among many fighters and so people who are hyper specialized are seeing success again

>>2146289
>expecting the students to learn how to mix the martial arts themselves
Nope.
For example, starting with the basics. Striking sport have the power hand in the rear, leading with the weak hand. Grappling sports tend to work the opposite, strong hand leading. How do you manage this all? You got to understand the notion of distance in combat sports/MA. This is why the strong hand is in the back, because the striking distance is bigger than grappling distance thus you got to manage strikes before grappling.... Whatever, so few here train.
>>2146467
MMA is a sport. Vale tudo/No hold barred were martial arts.
Rules makes sport, especially when they are so restricting. An art form, be it martial, is as free as human mind is able to be.

>>2146687
>How do you manage this all?

Since you train, you should know. But if you actually trained, you'd know it doesn't fucking matter.

I've trained boxing a couple years and am now starting Muay Thai. I believe that I understand what it takes to develop comprehensive skill in striking. My absolute biggest weakness, however, is wrestling/grappling. I'm really shit at pretty much every aspect, wrestling, takedowns, submission, so much that I get dominated even when "play"wrestling with my smaller friends. I just don't have a basic understanding of how to even do anything. After I've gotten a bit more into Muay Thai, I definitely want to train a sport where I can practice this other half of fighting.

From what I've read here, it seems that either BJJ or Wrestling is the best option. Maybe both? Will doing just BJJ give me a decent foundation in wrestling as well as takedowns? Is it easier to just do wrestling? Probably noob question but what exactly are the differences between BJJ and wrestling? Google doesn't really give a straight answer in terms of how much focus there is on the specific aspects of the sports.

I'm not aiming to go pro or anything, I just want to be adept at grappling and wrestling, because even if I'm a good striker I will feel as if I have a huge weak spot by not being able to fight on the ground/get someone on the ground.

>>2148898
>Is it easier to just do wrestling?
Personally, I've never found Just Wrestling outside of schools. You could try doing an MMA gym's grappling program, but sometimes that's just BJJ, too, because BJJ is a meme.

A good MMA gym will have a decent grappling system, though, and they usually have some stronger wrestling elements.

Because fucking IBJJF ruined the art. Gracie Barra got sick of Judoka and Wrestler wrecking Bjjers with big throws. Until 2004 at least, if you were standing and your opponent was sitting, the referee would stand your opponent up. Both Ibjjf and cbjjf were on this, then Ibjjf went awry when it started to get more success abroad because of less gringo'ed craps.

Judo and wrestling will teach you the most effective base. (inb4 judo no legs, any reputable school teaches leg work)
BJJ teaches you an effective base on the ground, working from bottom and is interesting and helpful, but if you're goal is to use your primary ability of striking, stick with something that starts on your feet.

The common mistake is to only strengthen your weaknesses, but not to pad your strengths. You're a good striker, you want to continue being a good striker, do something that compliments that as opposed to antagonizes it.

I do not consider stylistic advantages to be a thing, only arts as different subsets of striking and grappling. Judo will teach you a ton of ways to slam people into the ground, bjj will teach you tons of ways of what to do when you get there (with more options than judo at least)

You clearly want to become a complete or somewhat complete fighter based off of your urge to learn grappling, so try it all. Wrestle, do Judo, and do BJJ, more practice never hurts.

That being said, for most people with time constraints, I recommend wrestling or traditional Judo. Judo will teach you leg attacks, as well as it's throwing and takedown ability, while teaching chokes and submissions (enough of them at least) At my judo club we practice gi and no gi, and with leg attacks and no leg attacks. It's hard to find a really good school but they're out there.

Wrestling teaches you physicality as well as excellent top position and pressure, and frankly is a very pure form of grappling. Very little room for error. Most wrestling guys know how to defend submissions instinctively simply due to their positioning alone.

BJJ at a bjj school rarely does standup, and as mainly a judoka/wrestler, visiting BJJ gyms means slamming nerds, then going for my subs from a dominant position with a dazed opponent. HOWEVER, if I make a mistake during my takedown, or don't do it with enough juice, we're on an even field from subs alone.

>>2150806
>goes to bjj schools to judo throw people
Wow you must be so good.

>>2150838
I go to bjj schools to work on my submissions, would you like me to intentionally not use my skillset why? For my game, I do not find myself on the ground from 50/50s, or from standard bjj starting positions, I either get taken down or take someone down, so why would my training not reflect how I grapple?

>he goes to a wrestling room to submit people
Are you expecting the bjj guy to not do that?
(granted rules are agreed upon beforehand (everyone knows takedowns are a part of life m8))

>>2150895
>visiting BJJ gyms means slamming nerds
Yeah that totally sounds like you go there to work on submissions

>>2150915
>visiting BJJ gyms means slamming nerds, then going for my subs from a dominant position with a dazed opponent
>then going for my subs from a dominant position with a dazed opponent
>then going for my subs

Sorry I used the word nerds. They're not nerds. It's part of my vernacular.

I try to expose myself to as many forms of grappling as possible. Me enjoying the sport and 'throwing nerds' is part of the fun for me, as much as a pin or sub is fun for the wrestler/bjj guy. That's normal.

Lmao no

So I started Judo a few months ago and I'm having a hard time throwing people in randori, even other white belts. I have no problems in newaza or doing drills, but I can't bring myself to commit to a throw, it just feels like my opponent is going to change their balance and I won't be able to finish my throw, or it will come down to a contest of strength. How do I fix this?

>>2156650
well I don't know about all of that. I started judo last february and I go many nights a week and I'm still not really any better at judo than the day I started

I realized where I joined is very much a judo club, and not a judo school. Everyone is a black belt, some even 4th degree, and theres a red and white belt that comes sometimes, or brown belts that are preparing for tournaments so they can rank up and get black belts

They don't teach me anything, it's basically a lions den for people already really good at judo. I'm trying to learn by doing but it isn't going well, they basically just use me as fodder to try stuff out on

>>2131278

yoooo! At what point is he in position for an instant armbar? I see he is pushing on his chest at some point, but his arm is at the outside, if he transitioned into spider web the best thing he has is a shoulder entanglement sticking his hand under the armpit and putting pressure on his elbow.

>>2156864
maybe you should go somewhere else

>>2156864
That sounds like a really shitty place, I think you should go somewhere else unless that's the only place to do Judo in your town and you really, really, really love the sport, and even then maybe consider doing something else like wrestling or BJJ. Otherwise you may end spending years of hard efforts and realizing that you've learned very little. But hey, if you do decide to stay, good luck and try your best.

>>2156650
Practice. Throwing is not intuitive, but resisting a throw is. On top of that, you are not allowed to set throws up with atemi (which is what should be happening in a real engagement). Just keep practicing. One day it'll happen and you'll surprise yourself.

>>2156865
it's a reverse armbar attacking the arm the guy on the bottom put over the guy on tops shoulder. He secures that arm in the position it's in and goes knee on belly, then knee cuts about half way so his knee is touching the ground. With his left leg he knee cuts across the guys throat/collar area which locks him down because he can't move his head. by leaning forward the guy on bottoms arm will straiten out because it's trapped against the guy on tops shoulder. For added pressure he guy on top can put his head on to the ground which will make it very tight. He just hugs the elbow into himself against his chest. So essentially his shoulder is pushing the straightened arm in one direction and he's pulling the elbow back in the other direction.

Being beaten continually is the only way to get better. Lion's den style of training produces great results. If you could train with olympians for 5 months without offbalancing a single one of them once, you'll be much better than you think you are.
It is demoralizing, but helpful. I recently got the chance to train with some of the best in the USA during a trip to Pedros place in boston, and I know that if i could train there for a year without beating anyone, I would still improve dramatically.

Lower level training partners are just as vital as higher level ones. Without them, you never get to develop your game to its full potential, as you never get the chance to finetune it. If you never manage to throw someone, you won't become a great thrower.

Definitely fucked over my tachi waza. By the time where I got to the point where I became able to throw other members of our clubs competition team, most were forced to quit. I was left with people who were taller, heavier and more technically skilled than I was - and I'm over 1m80 / 6'0 and 80kg / 175lbs. I couldn't throw them at all, and, as I also picked up BJJ at the time, I became overly reliant on ne waza. I compete successfully at local level, but ALL my wins, with one single exception, were on the ground. On the ground, I can make people who compete at high level look like beginners, but I can only dream of throwing someone who competes at local level.

Both have their restricted rule sets. Judo emphasizes landing a throw as opposed to maintaining position. If the throw is big and mean, then it's good for judo. However, submissions are utilized in judo and are executed with speed and ferocity. Wrestling (folkstyle in particular) is about controlling your opponent standing and on the ground. Unlike judo, wrestling allows leg attacks (as long as you're aren't competing in greco) and basically every standing throwing technique I can think of. Submissions are not taught in wrestling, unless you manage to find the one catch wrestling place in the world. What are your opportunities to wrestle or train judo? It would be cool to train both but as a wrestler myself, I know that during the wrestling season it is impossible to train anything else due to the stringent nature of a wrestler's training schedule.

Work on your ukemi .... Sad for what happened to you, but it made you stronger and wiser.
Keep going, do look for the yellow/orange belt technique, chose one, ask the bb about every lesson. don't forget to work it on your own. To do so ask them to show you the technique without partenr also and copy the move.
You should then work this move alone, this method of training is called: Tandoku renshy.
It helps.
next lesson warm you up with the move worked the previous lesson, ask about a new technique and try both at randori.

>>2168183
Not everyones school slacks on the takedowns at my school we are practicing takedowns every day, so sure your jiu jitsu might not be good for self defense but that doesn't mean that mine isn't great for self defense.

>>2167100
Thanks for the info. It seems like wrestling would be more useful. Have you ever wrestled a judoka? I've heard that the reason for the IJF limiting actions one can take in Judo is because Sambo practitioners btfo of them in competition.

>>2168470
That's kind of a meme. If we're talking leg grabs, the removal was a combination of the possibility of wrestling being taken out of the Olympics and of the metagame where people would score partial points and then stall with leg grabs and stuff. Its even stupider, but less embarrassing (to them). Honestly while I'd love to have leg grabs since I'm newb enougj to not have been around when they were, supposedly the worst part about the rules is not having certain counters that required grabbing the legs, and defending against singles and doubles.

I hope you're not trolling. I don't care what anyone says, it's mostly out of just hope, but I like to think the veey fucking best of boxing, wrestling, muay thai, judo, and whatever can overcome mma.

Most bjj schools don't work as old bjj was, where MMA was the goal to achieve. Nowdays they focus on groundwork and also neglect standing and self-defense where basic boxing skills are a must.

>>2168470
They both have their utilities. I think that's an exaggeration honestly as >>2168496 pointed out.

>>2170016
this is why I'm happy that my bjj coach did sambo for many years, becuase there's lots of bjj stuff you would do for sport that immediately stops working once people start punching. So if it doesn't work with strikes involved, he doesn't teach it.

Both, because to me basic boxing skills are basic self defense.
How do you want to train to do a jab-cross-double-leg if you cannot do a proper jab?
How do you want to train to cut the distance if you cannot defend the basic jab-cross?
You have to know how to do a jab-cross to have your partner feel threatned and learn the proper defence/counter/dodge.

it's possible. You have the best chance to keep them away even though you're bait

anyone going to bellator 170? I'll be there bought a ticket I hope it's fun.

Go to boxing gym, everyone's friendly as fuck, pro and amateur fighters training for up coming fights, sparring is taken seriously and great care is taken to keep people's chins (and brains) unfucked. People training in whatever, more serious people have boxing shoes/boots and high quality gloves.

Go to a Muay Thai gym, everyone's shitty and nervous looking like they've got chronic masturbation issues or some shit. No real fighters except coaches. Sparring in every class including beginners, nobody looks like they can fight let alone look like any muay thai fighter you've ever seen, just swinging wild hooks at each other like charlie Zelenoff. No headgear or mouth guard, 16oz gloves etc. Everyone has the fanciest thai shorts and gloves, flames on everything, some people wearing the thai arm bands even though they're onviously been doing it for a few weeks.

And I thought MT nut huggers on the internet were bad..

>>2168270
We do takedowns every class, and there's a self defence class once a week. The standing game is still a joke. Very few people even get to the level of your average Judo blue belt.

>>2168470
Check the competition records of former USSR countries, where both Judo and Sambo are common. Judo champs never quite reached the same level of success in Sambo, nor did top Sambo practitioners excel at Judo.

Well probably because they aren't doing judo idk I know what you're saying but idk what to say a lot of schools rarely work on takedowns atleast yours does everyday

Judo Blue Belt? What the fuck rank is that?
Anyway, I'm a Judo Brown Belt and I also train BJJ, and I'm on track to get a Blue Belt in BJJ in March.
As someone that trains both, I will say that the takedowns in my BJJ class is are almost to the point of being worthless, and it isn't the fault of the BJJ class, but because the approach is so different.
In the BJJ class they mainly teach Morote Gari, Kosoto Gari and Sumi Gaeshi. However, it is from the straight drill of the technique... as in, we drill the tech a few times during warmup and then get to groundwork.
In the Judo class, we drill every takedown that we learn from each of the 8 directions on the blossom as well as up and down. Hard to explain, but essentially, uke moves in one direction, and tori responds to the movement with the throw we are drilling.
As a result, the judoka can get kosoto gari in randori much more effectively than the jitz guys can.

In my school, we work a more wrestling oriented stand-up grappling, focused on single/double leg, two on one, armdrag, ankle pick and snap/front head lock. Almost no hip movement but O goshi in self defense and no reap but fore ko soto gari o uchi gari.

Please notice that there is no RNC in that picture, just an attempt.
>For the regular RNC/hadaka jime
bend of the elbow is not aligned with trachea for the regular RNC. Attacker's arm don't form the triangle needed for the attack. Attacker is not aligned with defender, Attacker has his hips higher than defender while both still have balance there.
>For the short stroke RNC/hadaka jime kuzure.
Pic related Fedor's version
Radial bone is not in contact with the trachea, choking hand doesn't reach over the scapula of the defender, both hands of the attacker are not joined. Defender's head not resting on attacker's shoulder. Defender's balance not broken.
This one is more dangerous and more "efficient". If defenders try to defend, you can attack a neck crank out of it.
>what do I do?
like in pic, grab attacking arm, squat down pushing my butt back and pull him forward.
>>2179643
Note that the guy in the video can't do a RNC better than a fuckin' white belt since he hasn't aligned the bend of the elbow with the trachea. Those 2 centimeters do a huge difference.

With a perfect choke your body freeze instantly and you lose consciousness in about 2-3 seconds.
A perfect choke put pressure on your spinal cord too. This is what actually stops you from moving. Like in a neck crank, your body tries to aleviate the pressure on the vitals. It is a reflex. The only ones that I saw not having this reflex are the junkies, triping hard. Even them end up asleep very fast.

If you train and read what I wrote, you'll understand. When someone write in the ufc, it means that he doesn't know the difference between doing choke bare handed and with gloves.
The point you could have made if you trained chokes, is that I should have specified which RNC, short stroke or classic. One targets primarly the blood flow, the other one target more principally the air intake. Both can attack bloodflow/airintake though.
One can be transformed into a neck crank easily, the other needs a transition to keep in control. Both don't target the neck the same way beside the neck crank transition.

>Mechanism of loss of consciousness during vascular neck restraint
>As the mechanism of unconsciousness is not completely understood, we tested the hypothesis that VNR simply compresses the carotid arteries, thereby decreasing middle cerebral artery blood flow.
>Twenty-four healthy police officers (age 35 ± 4 yr) were studied.
>Ocular fixation occurred in 16 subjects [time 9.5 ± 0.4 (SE) s].
>In addition, with no significant change in HR, ventricular contractility, or MAP, the carotid sinus baroreceptor reflex appears to contribute little to the response to VNR.

(VNR is the fancy scientific term to choke hold)

In short, for those who are too idiotic to understand what science have to say about this, like the anon who insists on choke holds being 2deadly4u:

No, in the studio, it took in average 9 seconds for the participants to display signs of paralysis (the ocular fixation, that's when they stop following a pen with their eyes), and the loss of conscience appeared seconds after that. However, it didn't happened at the same time on all the 24 participants, and 4 participants didn't loss conscience at all. And yeah, the scientist were also like wtf.

Also, this stupid non-sense here >>2190216 is literally destroyed by the same studio when they wrote: "In addition, with no significant change in HR, ventricular contractility, or MAP, the carotid sinus baroreceptor reflex appears to contribute little to the response to VNR". In other words, choke holds can't trigger any reflex as they don't compromise the entirety of the circulatory system.

And that, bitches, is science, not some bullshido from some mall school jerking over bjj.

There are two main variations of hadaka jime. Ask any Judo shodan near you.
1) This in not one of them. VNR as it is called is the police authorized version which is on purpose inefficient (Police want to control, not to kill/maim everytime).
2) Nobody cares about HR, ventricular contractility or MAP if as a certified instructor one can choke out only 5 out of 6 people giving their neck and not resisting at all due to poor technique.
>Imagine a gun that shoot only 5 out of 6 bullets...
3)From the same study:
>Our results demonstrate that the most important mechanism causing unconsciousness during VNR is decreased cerebral blood flow due to bilateral carotid artery compression. [...] The small decrease in CO (9.6 to 7.5 l/min) observed would not seem to be important as there was no change in MAP. In addition, with no significant change in HR, ventricular contractility, or MAP, the carotid sinus baroreceptor reflex appears to contribute little to the response to VNR
and
> Our results indicate that the most important mechanism in causing unconsciousness was decreased cerebral blood flow due to carotid artery compression.
Which is the point I want to make.
4) You're the one pretending I was talking about the baroreceptor reflex.
>A reflex action, differently known as a reflex, is an involuntary and nearly instantaneous movement in response to a stimulus.
I wasn't. There are other reflexes, now you know.
5) Executed properly, the time to choke one out can be reduced to 2-3 sec. While keeping one from moving due to cervical region pressure.
Don't go cherrypicking and hoping nobody is going to read the study to prove you wrong.
Thanks for the read I learned about the baroreceptor reflex and the myoclonic twitches.Now, you can keep pretending you know what you're talking about. Maybe you know about boxing, But about grappling in general, you lack the basics.
