Judo bros, i want your opinion on this.

I, like many beginner judokas had trouble with making osoto work. Even after learning more practical ways to do it lik focusing on head control with a clothesline/chin push and trowing diagonally and planting my right fott instead of sweeping before rotating/squatting like osoto otoshi i still didn't feel very secure while doing it because it leaves you open while you're following with your trailing/reaping leg if opponent is pushing back. I've even tried to do it without a reaping leg like sumi otoshi as a safer attack, although i'm not strong enough to make powerful sudden jerking motion to make it work.

And then i stumbled on a collar and elbow wrestling video and noticed a certain way they do a throw in that direction. It's called twist over the knee and it's sort of like sumi otoshi except you step around them instead of behind them and block their knee with yours while pulling them back and to the side. When i tried it it struck me as a very intuitive motion that i've actually already done before against some left handed guys without realizing it. It also worked well for me as a "grinding" type of throw where even if i don't immediately get it i can still drag the opponent into it if i maintain my footing and position. I've found out the same throw also exists in other wrestling styles, including backhold, mongolian and okinawan belt wrestling. Here's a video demonstrating it:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=300RhmgoE3I
I've also found that it's useful as a setup throw to get the opponent off balance for other throws similar to a kouchi gari that attacks the opponent's front foot squaring them up, the throw that i also struggled with. A typical competition style osoto without stepping forward with the left leg doesn't help with that and is more of a makikomi type of throw.

So my question is, why isn't this throw more common in judo? Is there any reason we hardly see it done? Have you ever done or experienced it?

Hey fellas, I'm fairly new to Judo (probably less than two months combined total sessions), I've gotten sort of hurt twice over that time, namely from falling weird, namely swelling/impact trauma on my ass cheeks.

Is it common? Am I just dogshit and need to power through the injuries, or do I need to massively improve my ukemi?

if it's not broken bones or sprained joints then it's not that bad, unless it really is. you can try talking to your coach about it but if it's just a bruise you might not really get any good suggestions. you shouldn't blindly power through painful stuff because what you think is a bruise might be more serious and you'll aggravate it and really fuck yourself up. if it's just sore for a couple of days and vanishes without reminding about itself before your next training session it's normal and standard, even if preferably still avoided when possible.

if you're not feeling comfortable in sparring then try to make an effort to give in and accept the fall sooner if you feel you're unbalanced and caught(this doesn't mean throwing the sparring/sandbagging or jumping into opponent's throws) and trying to fall flat and break the fall like in ukemi because you might have trouble doing it in a match while distracted despite doing fine in practice. if all those fail then you can talk to your partners to go lighter(mutually) and pick guys who you're comfortable sparring with, and talking to the coach. if all that fails then change your gym for a one that does judo more recreationally, they usually promote more restrained and less competition-like sparring and have more older guys who usually get this stuff and don't want to get hurt themselves.

Drill ukemi daily. Swelling on your ass cheeks is a weird problem to have, you must be falling really poorly or have some bizarre skeletal deformity.

>>270337
No, fortunately nothing broken or sprained yet. More blunt hit trauma, like black bruise from my upper glute all the way down to near my mid hamstring. It's mostly the discomfort of the swelling, which goes away with time.
>make an effort to give in and accept the fall sooner if you feel you're unbalanced and caught
So focus on the falling mechanics themselves more when I know I'm about to be caught rather than full on either attacking or defending vs my partner?

>>270433
Yeah, my master's mentioned it. I assume it really is just being awful at falls. No deformities that I know of, just a bunch of loose skin from when I was much fatter, maybe some varicose veins from standing all day at work? Though I don't think it'd relate. The times that it happened it felt like a heavy "pinch" on the impact zone.
I've been able to do a whole streak of sessions without issue though, it feels like it's cursed to happened when I train legs or do running/jumping work earlier in the day.

if you're about to get lifted/thrown and you feel that your weight is no longer on your feet then instead of flailing or pushing around you do try to relax and follow the throw. hopefully your partner is not a complete beginner and can throw you cleanly when he does so you don't land on your limbs or head but on your back.

you can push back against being thrown but this should happen when the opponent only starts entering the movement, not when you're flying. if he steps in and turns for a hip throw you bend your legs and lean back while pushing your hips against him, in the opposite direction of the way he would pull you. if he tries to osoto you you put your chest against him and hang your head behind his shoulder, leaning forward, and so on. but if you are already losing balance because you missed the moment then you just roll into it slightly where your opponent guides you or bend your leg and sit down before rolling backwards again, just like in ukemi. falling back is easier and falling forward requires you to turn over to your back, which works a lot better with a good tori.

you can imagine good ukemi as minimizing the height you will fall, the sitting down part, and maximizing the surface area of your body that contacts the mat when you do fall, so instead of falling on one spot all your weight is distributed along your back, shoulder, arm, butt, thighs, palm and feet. you don't need to slap the mat hard, you need to extend the hand so that when your body hits the ground you are already extended and maximized the contact area. ditto with legs. with forward rolls try to start the diagonal rolls with your upper arm instead of your shoulder while almost making a hoop with your arms, without locking the hands. and tuck your chin, both when falling and when training, until it's muscle memory to do so when your body enters an unstable position.

>Yeah, my master's mentioned it.
It's the most valuable judo technique on and off the mat. Drill ukemi daily. One day you'll be old and take a rough fall and thank your ukemi habit creating a life-saving reflex.

>a bunch of loose skin from when I was much fatter

Are you crushing your skin folds? If so, perhaps some kind of rashguard shapewear product would help.

>it feels like it's cursed to happened when I train legs or do running/jumping work earlier in the day
I wonder if the muscle fatigue is leading to bad technique or if you're either over-training or under-recovering and battering over-damaged muscle. Are you making consistent strength gains while training legs?

I would save full-on defending for shiai. Keep in mind the concept of Jita-Kyoei (mutual welfare and benefit), especially for randori and other cooperative and semi-cooperative modes of practice: while tori is training throws uke is training breakfalls and so both of you benefit when one is thrown well and the other lands well. Don't throw yourself or anything goofy like that, but if your randori partner sets up a good throw don't try to muscle through a hard counter, just feel the technique and breakfall properly.

Some schools only do hard randori, basically unstructured shiai. This is retarded and less useful for beginner/intermediate students, and not optimal for advanced students, either (you want both). If you're in this kind of environment I would still suggest saving the hard full-on defending for shiai (most of the time, at least) and going with the flow a bit more in randori, even though it will be slightly more punishing than in the more cooperative style of randori--on the plus side, you'll get more breakfall practice and likely fewer injuries.
