What's your go-to for when you're playing open guard and your opponent steps over your leg to start cutting? The "leg bump" that is preached everywhere doesn't work. I'm thinking going shin to shin is my best shot. Also x guard but that may be tricky.

>>211066
You have to beat them into a sweep or guard before they do that. Maybe shin to shin > single X. If they step over to begin the knee cut get them into your half-guard.

>>211066
Shin to shin for a stand up / wrestle up is good against guys who don't like to wrestle

>>211066
I'm not sure I understand the scenario you're describing, but either way, you should be thinking about guard retention (frames, connections, etc.) rather than reaching for a position that might not be there

There's some fun in reverse DLR in a situation like that. You have an inversion to the back, you can go matrix and k guard.

is it over bjjbros?

>>211273
Incel shit is like alcohol wherein if you're not drinking all the time it's just fucking awful to listen to. Made it 35 seconds when he says "typical fatcel."

Of all the arguments I hear about BJJ, it's always about how gay it is or how effective it is in street fights. I've never heard anyone say it's a good place to get pussy. Rule of thumb: if a girl is doing BJJ, it's because she's getting fucked by a martial artist. No other woman has the wherewithal to walk through the doors and try something new that's challenging. They have a complex about things being/appearing difficult the same way men have one about hair and wrists.

>>211892
I have a goal of going up to 300lbs to feel like what it is like to be a sumo wrestling.

How do I protect my ribs as a rookie? Blue belts and other whites keep racking them and it's been a shitty trial period. Is that normal or is it the gym I'm going to shitty? I'm seriously considering abandoning the sport especially if I have to pay for light duty training starting next month.

>>212085
what do you mean by racking? are they dropping their weight onto you very quickly?
i think it's generally accepted as good conduct to not go apeshit on new guys, but it's hard to say if that's the case without seeing what's going on, could also be you just have frail ribs

as far as protecting them goes, obviously the best idea is to not let them sit on your ribs, but at this point in time that might be difficult, so i would recommend just tapping early if it's genuinely causing you pain and injury (this is obviously different from discomfort).
maybe talk to your coach about it and decline rolls with big guys.

There's a guy that keeps snapping peoples knees with reaps and retiring them
Not my problem but someone in charge really should do something about it
He's doing it once or twice a year

>>212124
>>212124
Both times I bruised my ribs it's when as I'm setting side guard, they are snaking a hand or arm along mine and their chest rather quickly to push me off, and an their elbow runs along my ribs. Feels like someone running a hand on a piano but the keys are my ribs.
I'm new at this, so my lingo might be off.

>>212133
huh, haven't ever had that happen before or maybe i'm just having difficulty imagining the situation
but regardless, if you're on top, it's up to you if you want to relieve pressure if that's too discomforting for you.
it's sort of like when they have a frame on your neck in side control, if you push in it's very uncomfortable, so it's better to readjust and try to remove the frame.

is it worth continuing to compete if my record is 1 win / 11 losses?

>>212143
Yes. Competition is a skill apart from jiujitsu itself. If you want to get good at competition, you have to practice competing.
Honestly, in a tournament-based sport, wouldn't it make sense that most competitors end up with more losses than wins? Unless you're sandbagging like a motherfucker and simply win every single bracket you're in, that is.
For us "regular guys" I think competing is useful just as a form of stress inoculation. Get used to dealing with adrenaline, stress, pressure, intensity, etc. At least that's the reason I do it: to drive out the bitchmade from my soul, at least a bit.

>>212187
This might be a bit of an outside the lines use, but it's also helpful in deciding what you should work on. Can't hold a certain position? Get taken by a throw or sub more than once? Too aggressive or not enough? Competition can be a good way to figure that sort of shit out. Especially if you're plateauing.

>>212143
I don't do competitions because I don't care for the sport and the only reason I ever did them was so people would be impressed by me
I wanted to have a picture with a gold medal to show off

I don't find the act in itself enriching at all

I feel as if I have become pretty solid at straight ankle locks but don’t like the way they make me feel. I’ve tapped out higher belts and won comps with it, typically from butterfly and outside ashi. Sometimes when I get sick of being smashed in training by a much better player, I just funnel myself to a form of x guard and go to outside/butterfly ashi for a reliable way of stopping them. I am nowhere near as good any catching other submission, and feel as if the aoki/ankle lock came very naturally.

But it feels like a hollow victory winning with it, almost dishonourable and always unsatisfying. It feels nothing like a well fought for submission from a dominant position like an arm triangle or bow and arrow. Does anyone know this feel?

>>212194
no, and it's brazilian cope to frown upon it
they should get better at protecting their legs

>>212194
nothing wrong with having a good A-game
>almost dishonourable
brazilian cope
if you're worried about becoming a one-trick pony, then yeah, limit the amount of ankle locks you do when sparring with people you can consistently beat and work on other stuff too

i feel the same way with my takedowns because my only good ones are all sacrifice throws and i just default to them if i can't get anything else working

>>212251
>my only good ones are all sacrifice throws and i just default to them if i can't get anything else working

Based. Why worry about setting takedowns up when you can just counter their single leg with a sumi gaeshi and end up on top, usually in mount

He's (probably) not on meth. It's a manic episode (again) and he's getting help. I saved one of his instagram stories.

https://files.catbox.moe/r9mo1y.mp4

>>212498
I think he's on the comedown now. I've been stalking him on insta the last few days. I remember the story you saved. Since then he's stopped posting, and it looks like the stories were taken down.

Maybe insta banned him and removed his stories, or maybe he's starting to come back to himself and realizing "oh shit what have I done". One of my gym buddies who's a medical guy (nursing student) was saying once he shifts from the manic phase to the depressive phase all that narcissist/egomanical stuff will drop away and he'll probably feel like shit. Of course, that's operating on the assumption that it's bipolar, not some other condition.

When Andrew alluded to getting help earlier in his episode I think he was referring to his sketchy, enabling girlfriend. I hope he gets real help.

probably best to look at competition footage and see how the top players deal with grips, it's kind of hard to understand passing if you're just looking at static techniques being demonstrated on a cooperative uke

my favorite pass is the arm weave, it negates a lot of the bottom player's grips, just have to be careful not to get loop choked https://youtu.be/zPgQ5Uxs2Hk
similarly i like going for passes from headquarters
so i think the philosophy here is that you either want to commit to being up close or at a distance (such as when doing a toreando), never in between because that's when you start to get stuck and swept

>>212609
if you're passing on your knees you're doing it wrong, this isn't a real strategy
it's the false positive of being either better than the person you're doing it against, or bigger and stronger than the person you're doing it against
stand up on your feet and get mobile
>muh body lock
isn't done from the knees, it always starts on the feet with leg pummeling and hand fighting and then they dive into the pinned position when the window opens. Nobody just saunters up on their knees and lets their partner establish whatever grips they want and then tries to break them and pass from down there the way the boomers would teach it to you

being on your knees facing your partner is not a position in jiujitsu, everyone needs to stop doing it

You’re a dumb nigger. IBJJF pans is not the same as an IBJJF open

>>212609
I came from an all nogi gym to a predominantly gi gym and passing was such a shock to the system. I tried body lock passing and forcing half guard and just got repeatedly loop choked and swept. One thing I learned was that you absolutely need to dominate the grip fight before starting your passing sequences, that means clearing lapel grips and leg entanglements as soon as they’re made. If you just waltz into their guard lackadaisically, you will get swept

>>212741
Pans are open, the only difference is the naming convention. The tournament is only prestigious because they tell you it is.
You dont need to qualify for them and you don't even need to be from the region you compete in. That's why all the nobodies in the west take a trip to Asia every year to do it because it's an easier bracket to go against rice fueled manlets when you have no shot against Brazilian apes

At my old gym we had a gigachad model who fucked every half decent looking girl who joined. Couldn’t be mad or jealous because he was a really nice guy, a good training partner and helped the gym attract and retain female members

I've been training for about 6 years (the last 2.5 at B-Team), and I feel very well rounded (I even have some mediocre wrestling/scramble skills), but I'd like to hone in on one thing and stick to it for a while. What should I study?
I'm leaning towards front headlocks or armbars but open to suggestions. Luckily my gym has a great culture about this kind of stuff, it will be easy to get feedback and do situational rounds if I can focus on something.

>>212908
Front Headlock is the way man!
It gives you great control over your partner. It will transform your wrestling game and help you in standing and dog fights.
They can not tap to a choke and you can still hold it without worrying / you can take it to completion without destroying your partners joint.

>>2126
Competition wins don't mean you're good at BJJ. They just mean you are fast and have superior cardio and spent a lot of time understanding how to best manipulate the gay point system. People who compete a ton are always the worst training partners.

>>212194
Yes, because you know it's not a real combat position and you'd get a knee/kick to the face getting into position in a real fight. You're relying on a technique that won't actually protect you if you were in real danger. All subs that aren't street applicable feel like cheap wins to me and always have. 20+ years on the mats, for reference. I still want to win the takedown, pass using TECHNIQUE (not speed), assert control and achieve a sub where I was never in any danger from my opponent. Sport BJJ is fun, it's a brain game, but any position where the opponent is only safe because of the rules is not a safe position. Simple as.

It’s entirely valid what you’re feeling.
What enraptured me the first time doing Jui Jitsu wasn’t when someone tripped me over from under neath me and yanked on my foot.
It was when someone much smaller than me was able to physically dominate me into a choking submission. I couldn’t wrap my head around it.

Leg/foot locks will always feel cheap to me, just like a wrist lock does. Just because they feel cheap, doesn’t mean theyre in effective. Far from it. Being able to make your opponent submit when you’re not at the greatest advantage, or even 50/50, is incredibly powerful in itself.

It just isn’t why I train though.

There's a standing leg pummeling component to it to bait a slight overcommitment before dropping down to staple a leg

This is funny enough the reason bjjers blow at takedowns, they don't practice the setups and just take for granted you'll be able to just deploy the move at will
The I do 2 then you do 2 drillyboi compliant training reinforces this feeling and is why so often people will spend a whole class practicing a move and then the moment they try it live it doesn't work

>>213059
Dope, I’m going to try this. I usually enter from knees by pushing my guard pulling opponent onto their back, as they are coming back up I shoot at them straight on with my head aiming for the centre of their chest. I push them back down enough to get the body lock but without over committing too much to give them an easy butterfly sweep with my momentum.

The issue is then that they have both hooks, and for people with sticky hooks it can be a battle.

That standing leg pummel looks like a great way to enter and only have the single hook. Only issue I can see is you’re increasing your likelihood of being swept and having your legs entangled.

Thanks for the info

It's really interesting as I teach these eco classes the way that people can't listen to simple instructions or think for themselves

They've been so conditioned to only do exactly what the teacher specifically tells them to do that they're unable to make a decision without express permission to do it

In this exercise the defending player starts on his side, attacking player is behind him with his arms locked around his waist
Defending players goal is to build the house and stand up to his feet, once on his feet he is to remain upright for as long as he can
Attacking players goal is to keep his arms locked around the hips and prevent him from standing, if he manages to stand your goal is to bring him back down.
First come the questions
Can I unlock my hands?
What did I say your hands are doing?
They're locked around his hips
So no, you can't unlock your hands

If he stands can I use my legs to sweep him back down?
Did I say anything about restricting what your legs can do?
No
Then go ahead
Can I grab his legs?
Are his legs his hips?
No
Then no

And on the flip side you have the people who can't follow the constraint at all
Immediately the defender starts pummeling and framing and trying to break grips
Stop trying to break his grip and just stand up..Stop trying to frame him away and just stand up...Stop..no I mean Stop. What is your task?
Build up to my feet and stand
So why are you trying to break his grips?
Because its hard to stand like that

Yeah, that's the point. Now do it how I explained it

>>213598
The only thing gay about jiujitsu is drilling and repping
The people who train that way are across the board the worst practitioners
They talk about the benefits of spending hours repping techniques
Maybe they wouldn't need hours to master something if they did their training more effectively

>>213605
If you can't follow a task as simple as that you're not gonna make it
I can look at someone on their first day and let you know how far they're going to go in this hobby

The mark of a good instructor is being able to turn a bad student into a good one.

Doing my first comp in a month, Grappling Industries. Got any tips?

>>213793
My coach says that competing in jiujitsu is a separate skill from jiujitsu itself. So don't expect to be great at something you haven't practiced a lot. Try to enjoy to experience and the process. Take it all in.

He also says that, physiologically speaking, your body can't tell the difference between fear and excitement. So when the nerves hit and you're thinking "oh god oh shit oh fuck me goddammit oh fuck oh god what have I done why am I here I'm gonna die I'm gonna kill myself" just lie to yourself and force your thoughts to change to "YES I am happy to be here I am SO EXCITED this is EXCITING and FUN I made it I'm gonna DO MY THING and I've been waiting SO LONG to rock and roll and HERE WE GO YES YES YES WOOOOOOOOO".

It's tacky but it works, kinda. I hate competing but I do it anyway so personally I need any kind of cheap trick I can get.

The alternative approach is the exact opposite, the zen/samurai/stoic mindset. "I am the calm in the eye of the storm. Losing is irrelevant. Winning is irrelevant. The opponent is irrelevant. What matters is myself and my jiujitsu. Win or lose I will have control of my mind. Win or lose I will conduct myself honorably. Regardless of what happens, I will honestly and forthrightly put forth my best effort. My job is not to win but to fight with my utmost focus and effort. As long as I step off the mat knowing I sincerely gave my best and did not quit or give up or give way to fear or anger, I am content and I care not whatever else happened on the mat."

Some people would say that's a shitty, loser's mentality, and the possibility of failure should not even enter your mind. Maybe that's true for elite competitors, but personally I lose a lot so I can't really fool myself into thinking I'll always win.

Anyway, go get em, tiger.

>>213791

Yes, removing cancers that can't follow instructions so the other people on the mat have a good experience
Trying to carry shitters that can't listen is how you appeal to nobody
These are also the people that will spaz and hurt others

If I can't trust you to follow instructions when I'm not looking it means I need to always be watching you and that means I'm not watching other people
Trying to retain everyone that walks through the door is a rookie mistake

If you can only lift twice per week you’ll need to do a full body program, that has you doing a hinge movement, a squat, with vertical/horizontal pushing and pulling. Jeff Nippard’s Essentials program is pretty good, you can find a Google sheet for it online.

Andrew Wiltse now threatening to kill Gordon Ryan and his brother with a knife
Says he has a hit list
Licks a knife
Says he's a prophet and/or God and will kill people who deserve it.
Says Gordon made his wife fuck Nicky while he watched and jerked it?

I didn't save all of them as a lot of them were just him yelling about how he's God and how he's going to beat up Craig Jones, Nicky Ryan, and Tom Deblass. I only saved the ones that were the most illegal. Plenty of them were just him yelling nonsense. He also voted for Kamala.

not sure what any of it would have to involve the FBI other than people he threatens are in other states and he's using the Internet?

>>214287
He says his hit list is 150 people so that's a mass killing event. They'd want to know

Better to just let Gordon and Craig know though, they're big boys they can protect themselves if they're concerned and take it seriously

He's admitted to pot on the videos. Some of these edibles will make psychosis and bipolar worse

I'm adding more videos to the archive if you guys want to share them far and wide that would be great. The more people who see it the more likely it gets on law enforcement's radar and they actually do something about him this time.

Lost a ton of money, lost his business he co-founded with him, lost his gym, moved out of state, lost all his friends in IL, tried to help Andrew and lived with him while he was manic and psychotic and giving away all their money, called the police on him when he was threatened and couldn't deal with it any more.

I will say it again I love The Daisy Fresh boys, I am really glad they made space from andrew in the past.

>>214347
He just spent some time inpatient @ the psych hospital for the first time ever. I thought for sure he was hospitalized at least once before and on meds but nope. And it was hell getting him in there. Mt Vernon cops are scared of him. So who is doing all these wellness checks on him when he gets on Insta and threatens everyone? They are. Or at least they're supposed to.........And they're fucking scared of him.

>>214353
>fucking scared of him
Black belt and former champ with a knife,
that's is scary to begin with now give him a mental illness and meth.
But if they are cops they can just use a shotgun loaded with sandbags.

>>214382
sorry guys I guess he went crazy before he was able to win a bunch of shit at black belt shrug idk

>>214383
I think that's the reason he went crazy, because he was riding his own hype train With everybody blowing smoke up his ass during his colored belts career, and once he's finally on the big stage against people that actually do this for a living he starts having some impostor syndrome because he's not all that anymore
Total cognitive dissonance, he's not who everyone told him he was

He had flo following him around making a documentary about how amazing he is,
It ended with him getting his black belt and falling off because he isn't rising to meet the challenge

I used to look up to Andrew but it’s pretty obvious that he’s just a selfish and abusive person, bipolar or no. I got bullying vibes from a lot of the instructionals he did with his brother and now it all makes sense. I feel sorry for Bird and hope he gets out of this situation safely.

This nigga also needs to be locked up before he hurts someone. Why is he not in a secure psychiatric unit somewhere already? He’s brandishing a knife and talking about killing people and hurting children now - what more does this nigga have to do?

>>214500
The first time I saw him was YouTube instructional video and I immediately hated his personality, he was cursing a lot and just generally seemed like a rude ill-tempered person

I liked the videos where keenan talks about how he runs his business and its a pretty simple philosophy to be professional and provide the most value you can for the members
And in the relates videos wasna podcast where some guy was saying to be successful you need to jew the members as hard as you can at every possible turn, going so far as to not even provide finger tape and nail clippers. If they need it you sell it to them

Wiltse update:
https://youtube.com/shorts/eCdF4aqy5Io?feature=shared

https://youtube.com/shorts/biaqy4_8rVo?feature=shared

Andrew "couldn't get Grace out of bed" so a bunch of cops showed up because "they (the cops) called Andrew (not because anyone called them) and "they decided (Andrew and the cops agreed)" Grace should go back to the hospital "because of rapists". Andrew hasn't posted anything in a couple hours.

Grace was also in the hospital last night "because her father raped her when she was four" and "because she was finally working through her trauma" (per Andrew). So what the fuck that ACTUALLY means, fuck if I know.

Blind speculation, but I'm thinking Grace is dead of an OD and Andrew is in custody. Even if he's not culpable for anything I can't imagine he's gonna do well talking to cops in his present condition. Fucking hell, bros. I guess this shit was only gonna end one way.

>>214529
If "they" decided, it means she didn't decide, so it's a 5150 and they were going to take her whether Andrew likes it or not

>>214530
Yeah I'm thinking reality is finally beginning to impose itself up Andrew and his delusions.

>>214531
I'm betting too if he's in custody they pulled the voluntary questioning down at the station so we can figure out what's going on, and once he walked in he was no longer free to go due to his terroristic threats online

A rubber room for psychos is basically a wrestling room that paid even more for the same material. Rip the orderlies.

So he's gonna have to get a warrant and APB put out against him or do something crazy in public to get arrested or sent to the psych hospital. It's all very very sad.

T-Kimura to back take from mount is good but I don't see anyone but me do it.

Why does no one on this board talk about 'normal' jiu jitsu, Japanese jiu jitsu or whatever you want to call it? Is it a meme?

>>214728
because bo one practices japanese jujutsu outside of japan really

not only that but the isolated martial arts of jujutsu are more popular and effective

judo is an isolation of japanese jujutsu(jiu jitsu)

BJJ is an expansion on judos ne-waza
both have proven to be more popular and effective
the guy who broke helio gracies arm was even a judoka
there's a move named after him in bjj called the kimura

basically bjj and judo are more effective and popular than japanese jujutsu

>>214728
As I understand it
>samurai had an unarmed fighting style called jujutsu, but it was heavily fragmented, so one 'school' might have a different focus or set of techniques to another one, with some overlap
>when Japan modernised and the Samurai were abolished as a class, the art started to die out
>Kano went and learned several 'schools' of jujutsu
>realised that the only way it would survive would be to make it a sport with a heavy focus on randori (which was not emphasised in many jujutsu styles at the time)
>he mainly combined 2 'schools' - one with a solid throwing game, one with a solid ground game
>modified some techniques to make them usable in live randori without serious injury - anything too dangerous to spar safely was put into a compliant drill format called kata
>introduced belts for rank/instruction, plus a standard uniform
>reintroduced an old term for the style 'judo'
>in the 1920s this style was taken to Brazil
>in Japan the throwing aspect was emphasied, in Brazil the ground element was emphasised. The latter became Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (as the ju-jutsu/jiu-jitsu name was still used for what we now call 'judo' to some degree at the time)

In other words, Kano took what was useful, changed the format to make it usable, and renamed it to distinguish it from normal jujutsu at the time, then this style evolved separately in Brazil

Normal jujutsu didn't do any of this, so it became similar to what you see with aikijujutsu- a lot of compliant/demonstration drills frozen in time without any of the shit that made judo usable in the first place. The name retained some glamour and without pressure testing via randori, it became bullshido

People do practice it but almost anything with value was just incorporated into judo and BJJ

>>214728
no one talks about vale tudo either

>>214728
It's virtually nonexistent today. Judo is its modern successor and was created by removing the stuff that was no longer applicable -things like disarming a sword-wielding opponent- and formalizing the rest into a comprehensive curriculum with modern teaching and training methodology.
The last part is the most important for why the sport became as successful as it is today; extensive pressure testing by live sparring, as opposed to JJ's tendency towards "2deadly2spar", similar to Aikido nowadays

>>214745
Vale Tudo just evolved into MMA, which is nearly the same thing, with a few more rules to make it safer and eligible as a sanctioned sport instead of underground fighting

As someone vaguely interested in cross-training in other grappling styles, does Aikido offer anything of value? I know that as a whole it's pretty much a meme, but I'm wondering if it teaches some worthwhile skills or techniques that might help round out one's grappling

>>214780
The best argument I've heard is the opportunity for lots and lots of ukemi/break fall practice.

>>214777
>>214776
This, nothing completely disappears. The sport will not be the same as it was in the past but you can still train it.
>"I want to train Vale Tudo"
Just do MMA
>"I want to train catch wrestling"
do wrestling and No-gi

>>214780

it barely works in terms of practicality

>I'm just not looking for meme shit where you do a slight movement on a partner who isn't allowed to resist at all and they 'sell' it by doing a flip onto their back like its WWE

Try it out but it's a pretty fair bet that that's exactly what it is

If they have some kind of JJJ club surely there's a judo or BJJ club as well, just join that instead. You won't get the
>I know the Secret PeePee Fist Style from the PooPoo lineage in Japan
martial arts meme to the same extent, but you will actually know how to fight and will get in shape

>>214799
Try to look up this on youtube:
>Shorinji Kan style Jiu Jitsu sparring
>Shorinji Kan style Jiu Jitsu randori

if you can't find any live, full-contact sparring or it looks like shit, then it's useless. This is the litmus test for any martial art

>>214780
Rokas and Chadi have produced a lot of content on this. Both were aikidoka who had a moment of clarity and realised aikido is useless in a live situation

There might be some interesting tricks in there but generally it seems to be a massive waste of time compared to just spending the same hours doing judo/bjj/wrestling/boxing/MT

Like spend the same hours you'd use to get an aikido black belt or whatever in a boxing gym instead and you'll be a legit fighter

>>214833

>>214834
Tengu who is in fact based argues that aikido is not as martially useless as people believe, But it is the dogmatic Approach towards aesthetics that stop the moves from being used effectively
Sukui nage for example, In aikido you grab the person around the waist in judo you grab the person around the legs, The judo approach to this technique is objectively better it gives you a longer lever to act upon the person with, but aikido rejects it because they believe it needs to look different from how judo does
Aikido believes that attacking the legs violates the principle of aiki,, As in you are disrupting the flow of energy rather than redirecting it, this is why they don't use any kinds of tripping techniques
The practitioners are chasing this fictional ideal that never existed

His next largest criticism is not that the techniques are fake, some of them are simply impractical and there is no way to make them practical, can you theoretically do it to a person, yes, but it's such a low percentage it will likely never happen
But for many of them they are practical techniques however the practitioners have no idea how to set them up appropriately, and what you will see is a practitioner goes live and try to chase hands and grab onto wrists
They never even have a chance to do the technique because they can't get the grips they want. A realistic approach would be to clinch with collar ties overhooks underhooks like all other grappling styles would and you can slide down the arm to get the wrist grips you need
It just doesn't function as a coherent grappling system where you can transition from move to move, everything you do happens in a vacuum when you practice so you don't know how to chain things together appropriately to make them work

>>214846
do this again but ten words or less

>>214846
I mean Tomiki Aikido exists, which shows that (some high percentage techniques from) aikido can be used in a live situation to some degree if it's trained that way

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

The difference is that if you look up aikidoka discussions, there doesn't seem to be a consensus that a style with randori is better, whereas for judoka/BJJ players this is so obvious it doesn't need to be stated.

I have seen the opinion that aikido trheows (and the karate version of similar throws) can actually be more useful for da streets than their judo equivalent because you're not following them to the ground, so less chance of getting stomped out by multiple attackers. But that logic only works if you can hit the techniques in a live situation

>But it is the dogmatic Approach towards aesthetics that stop the moves from being used effectively
>The practitioners are chasing this fictional ideal that never existed

From what I've seen, I think this hits the nail on the head. BJJ thrived because it was ruthlessly focused on what worked - aikido floundered because this wasn't its main focus

I personally wouldn't waste time cross training anything other than Judo/Wrestling to fill the stand-up takedown/TD defense that BJJ inherently lacks.

Oh and striking/shooting guns is probably good to do too.

Wouldn't waste any time on "women's self defense" like standing wrist locks, hand gun disarms, weird hair pull defenses that don't work, hapkido, ayyyylmao-kido. Dumbshit like krav maga gun disarms.

>>214903
So what we can assume is he committed arson on his own house to try and set up diasy fresh

>>214903
I got video of him having a candle and putting a bunch of pieces of paper into it while being manic.
Did anyone else see that? He was making a mini bonfire and laughing like a 12 year old who just found his dad's lighter for the first time.

>>214914
I'd be willing to bet "burned down right after I left" is top 5 most suspicious on insurance investigation for arson.

>>214903
LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOO!

>>214917
to much planning probably just had magic candles lit and forgot about them when he left. If that's the case he probably believes that daisy fresh actually burned down his house.

>>214925
If he did did just recently purchase fire insurance for the house and then this happened that's going to be enough to indict him for insurance fraud and arson
Even if it was an accident come the investigators will find that the Fire was set from inside the house

>>214930
I don't think he has been paying any bills he has

Ahahahahahaha he just recorded himself smacking his girl and posted it on youtube

Apparently there wasn't enough evidence to uphold the charges. Also there's a lawyer who's helping him. This lawyer is actually the brother of one of the DF guys who Andrew is fixated on, so go figure.

It really is the meat and potatoes of every bjj thread, isn't it?

is there a pass for retards like me who cant aggressively pass and instead you just like fall on top of someone and see what they do then react

and no not floating guard pass, thats too hard because no one just lets me trap their one knee between both of my knees and flop back and forth so fuck that one

is there maybe some leg entanglement i can pull that transitions well to a guard?

>>215163

if you have to cross train to make your martial art effective, was it even effective to begin with?

why not just teach this in bjj to begin with?

No martial art is going to be complete. Everybody specializes in something. BJJ focuses 90% on groundfighting and setting up positions to slap on submissions. Boxing doesn't utilize kicks or knees. Wrestling (scholastic, Greco-Roman, freestyle) doesn't allow chokes or joint-locks (though they do have sneaky pains that can be pain compliance).

Cross-training is a must. Very few BJJ schools will be 100% complete in stand-up grappling AND ground-grappling unless they're the rarities that address both facets AND you have enough time to practice 20-30 hours a week.

Scholastic wrestler/judoka here. I didn't have BJJ in my area growing up but I have a good base where I was able to hang with the BJJ and sub-grapplers at my current gym and they were impressed on how well I could do my rides, reversals, escapes, and pins on them.

Meanwhile my guardwork got extensively advanced thanks to rolling with them and I mastered so many sweeps thanks to my judo instructor making sure we at least devoted 40% of class on newaza.

>>215259
The thing is that bjj is uniquely incomplete within its own discipline
Boxing doesn't claim to be anything other than the art of punching
Taekwondo doesn't claim to be anything other than kicking
Wrestling and judo don't claim to be anything other than the arts of throwing someone on the ground and holding them there

BJJ claims to be a submission grappling art but completely lacks the ability to consistently and reliably move the fight into an arena where it functions
Wrestling and judo don't need to cross-train with other grappling arts in order to do the thing they claim to be good at
BJJ requires cross training with something else in order to work
It's just non-functional

i unironically use rubber guard

>>215261
Pre-1980's, if you look at vintage BJJ footage, they actually addressed stand-up grappling. Even Carlos and Helio did quite a bit of throws, trips, and takedowns. They were nowhere near World Judo or Olympic level, but more than adequate against noobs.

And a lot of vanguard of BJJ's development extensively cross-trained in catch-as-catch-can wrestling as well as luta livre (like George Gracie), judo (Rolls Gracie Sr. especially), sombo (Rolls Sr. again), Greco-Roman, freestyle, and anything else. Also a lot of Carlson Gracie Sr.'s guys boxed as well as did groundfighting. Before tournaments were standardized and popularized in the 1980's, BJJ was a real street-fighting art. It was survive by any means necessary, neutralize the opponent's strength and size advantages, wear them out with pressure and positioning, and then seize the moment to break their limbs/or choke them out.

The sportification of international judo also hindered its newaza. Pre-Olympic judo actually practiced some atemi (not enough to be a serious striker, but they knew enough to inflict damage in self-defense) as well as extensive submissions and ground-fighting along with devastating throws and tosses. The Butokukai practiced a rough-and-ready form of judo that focused on groundfighting and military close-quarters.

Could someone pls help me guys. I'm a 174 cm tall 70 kg manlet. I started almost a month ago in Carlson Gracie. I did kyokushin before but i couldnt put up with the fear of getting knocked out anymore. My problem is that I'm the lightest in the gym so during rolling I often get tapped by someone bigger than me sitting on my chest and smothering me. Any tips to avoid this unwinnable situation? I felt like standing up and keeping my centre higher would be a good solution but its forbidden in the gym. Also my purple belt buddy told me to roll with higher belts not white belt retards.

>>215271
For the time being, just work on your pin escapes, guard retention and defending submissions. If you can defend from a bigger opponent, you'll have an easier time against someone your size

>>215271
You're gonna be the nail for a long time regardless of size.

I am planning to start doing gi again.

I gave it a try when I started bjj
it was no more then 2 months
Before I switched to do no-g only.

I already have a gi so why not gi it another try?
any tips would be appreciated.

World Sambo Championships are live. Free but you need to make an account (you don't have to confirm it so you can type in a random email address and it'll play)..

Mat 3 has English commentary, but looks like it's only doing the women's events..
Mat 2 is doing combat sambo.
Mat 1 is doing sport sambo.

I think throws are more fun with the gi and unless you live in a place where you never wear jackets it's worth doing some gi stuff.

Like what do you even do in this situation? Do you just quit training?

That channel is a goldmine of mental illness.
I can't imagine having to train in the same environment as someone like this that you have to constantly walk around eggshells with. Surprised that their coach is willing to put up with it.

>>215271
Don't be comfortable on your back(both shoulders to the mat), usually always try to get to your side
Your opponent will try to flatten you into your back with a cross face (face full of forearm/shoulder/bicep) so learn to frame to keep that arm from doing its thing (your hand should be there to catch and intercept it)
Most pins will be "well I can't move so I need to get to my side) except for mount, that's a case of "well I need to rotate my hips to their side but keep my shoulders to the mat" else you get your back taken
Else since you're starting out you should invite the back take and defend from there

>>215685
I think I found them commenting on a Wiltse video. Unwatchable. YWNBA. More delusional than AW.

Any one have advice for copying Dante Leon?

I found him through Westside Barbell and after watch him compete I wanted to start doing bjj.
That was a week a go and I have been going to bjj at a mma. They teach one thing for 15 minutes then it is 45 minutes of rolling.
It is fun but I guess I need to study on my own and build a game plan on my own.

So my question is what are Instructionals I should pirates to copy Dante Leon?
Any other advice will help me.

>>215751
I’m skeptical but honestly this seems to be Andrew at his most lucid. Hearing Keenan talking about his time with Team Lloyd Irvin, the Danaher Death Squad stuff and the general goings on in a lot of the big teams makes me think that something isn’t quite right with Heath and the Daisy Fresh team. DF is a lost boys club; it attracts vulnerable and fucked up young adults who have little going on for them outside of BJJ and no real role models to speak of. Easy pickings for a manipulative cult leader-type personality.

Shit, even in my home town the head coach (a black belt under Priit) who is essentially a nobody in the BJJ world abused the little power he had to fuck girls at Globetrotters camps and do other smaller bits of social engineering

>>215714
YWNBDL

But seriously just learn fundamentals and develop your own style, you can worry about emulating facets of other athletes later. I got into bjj after seeing Marcelo Garcia but quickly realised that his style doesn’t fit my body type nor is it complemented by my complete lack of athleticism

>>215754
Jiujitsu is a death cult, all the stuff he talks about happening at daisyfresh is completely plausible because that's what the jiujitsu community is like, there's been so many high profile rape scandals and shit
