It brings up an interesting point though. Since the roids are perfectly legal in brazil, I wager virtually all the competitive BJJ-ers are doing them. So when you meet them at the mundials/pan-ams, you are almost guaranteed to be going up against a juicer. Doesnt seem quite right.

I think big movement power lifting would have some benefit. Just avoid all the body building type of lifting. (bicep curls, etc) You need FUNCTIONAL strength.

I think id just practice my double leg, on the heaviest bag I could lift, all day long

I will quote Creonte (some crazy Brazilian dude)

"if you no wanna get hurt make sure be juicing at least 3 months before comp
also squating and dead lifts like paulo filho
then no injury can come-just other guy get hurt and him be thrown out back of venue and laughed at by passing girls
sometimes english helth and safety big bit gay for homo's
more dangerous you get eaten by pitbull in copacobana than hurt grappling-is not real fight my frens"

I agree on everything except juicing! Squats and dead lifts are a way to go....if you dont have Kettlebells thou
everthing else will just bulk you up and make you slow,just do excercises with your own weight!

What do you think to a powerlifting-style (or Rippetoe) WO to complement BJJ. I am pretty weak so I get overpowered all the time. A lot of people say that AT training is more suitable for BJJ, but I can't help thinking that in my case working with free weights and low reps would be more beneficial.

Not a bad idea, but out here in San Diego, one of those would take up half the living room.

I feel a lot better, I think I could train tonight even, if there were a 24 hour jiu jitsu nearby.

Dude,

The part of my back I got in the water feels soo much better. The pain was up into my neck, but didn't want to go that deep, and also couldn't keep my knees in the tub at the same time if I went that low. I think it was worth it though, i was having a tough time doing stuff like lifting my head when lying down, etc. Feel pretty good at the moment.

Yeah probably. I notice that when I do get on my side, he'll go for different methods for taking the back, but a lot of times, he'll just continue his onslaught from the top.

I asked him after class what he was after most of the time though, and it was simply the ability to keep a guy absolutely flat on his back, you know, basically helpless - some other things I didn't mention, is that his posture is unusually straight, back arched at all times, and a tendency to always be over the hips, even in 100K where you're taught to be chest to chest, and to keep a guy flat, he simply pushes on a shoulder with his palm, or pulls up on an arm, or pushes and pulls a guy's knees, really simple, yet so effective. Anyway, there's a real value in actively practicing this stuff - when I go to class and I'm worn out already, I'm practically ready to tap just to get this dude off of me, and I find the whole experience more demoralizing than getting tapped by anyone by anything anytime. On my better days, I'll give him a good fight, but I also have to fight like a mofo the whole time.

Yeah...I'm pretty new to BJJ, but the raised eyebrows are starting to annoy me just a tad. As a female, the looks that people give me and comments they make tell me that they either think I'm 1) hyper-aggressive 2) sexually frustrated 3) like spending time with men that all MUST be in the closet ...none of which are true.

After they finish with the bad karate sounds and I explain that it's a grappling, not striking art, I generally just say that I love a challenge, and wanted a physical activity that would push me mentally and physically for many years to come. Also, that the people I've run into are really great and supportive. I typically cut it off once I start getting to the point of explaining how it feels like a dance to me, the fact that I find the details of manipulating an opponent to be beautiful and how I love the fact that I'm learning how to use my whole body in effective ways. That's when people start to glaze over.

If there is some threat from there, he just transitions back to 100 K or that little hook mount and keeps going, all around, he goes, he throws in some other odd mounts too, like sitting side saddle, and sitting on top with his legs spread out all the way, here, he'll grab the lapels and arch back about 30 deg, and literally, you cannot breathe.

Sounds like depending on the bottom guy's reaction you could also turn him over and take the back from there with one hook already in.

So I was training on thursday, and went a round with the 145 lb brown belt smash artist, and decided to dive into deep half guard from an unusual position to throw him off, but somehow, I got caught in some weird reverse inverted triangle that I can't explain. It wasn't threatening a tap, so I just figured I'd take my time to get out of it, and 4-5 minutes later I caught an angle and got free. After the session was over, I could tell I wasn't standing up quite straight, and so the following morning, my upper back was just f'ed up big time. I haven't trained in 2 days, and there was a tournament I was going to squeeze into sunday, but I'm all jacked.

Thus, since I figured my hip has been out of whack too, and one of my fingers is friggin' killing me, I thought I'd do what these MMA guys do, and take an ice bath, see if that could help heal me up a little.

I know that some guys get in the tub and dump the ice in after so that it's not such a shock, but I wanted to tune the temp to about 50-55, so I did that first.

Man, I got my legs in, and it was pretty cold, I'm not that flexible, so getting my knees, which are also a recurring problem, into the water was a little tough at first, mostly because you stiffen up quite a bit when you hit the water.

But then, when I lowered my back in - man o' man, did the involuntary deep breathing kick in. Those guys are nuts. Of course, I also noticed that the older I get, the more I prize being warm. I used to wonder why the old professors wore sweaters to work, and these days, I always have a hoodie on.

I can still feel the heat and cold being transferred to my feet, and that's after a pretty warm-hot shower, laying in bed for a little bit, and getting dressed.

My back feels a little better though.

Anyway, any of you guys do this stuff?

Dirtyrancher — Sat, 13 Mar 2010 23:22:10 GMT

Author: Dirtyrancher
Posted: Sat Mar 13, 2010 4:22 pm (GMT -7)

Here's my two cents - as folks have pointed out, going to north south is likely the best option, remember to stay on your toes, use the third contact point around your upper stomach to chest, arch your back, and pin his head sideways with it, back arched. From there, yes, you can set something up as he'll likely raise his hand, but lets go past that a little bit. I may be off, and forgive me if I am, but from your posts I think you've been trying to perfect the Roger game, getting mount or knee on stomach and attacking. So, without being there, I figure your partner is finding ways to get around this, and when you find a way to get around his counter here with the arm straight, he'll find a new one. Now, that's great practice for both of you, but on the other hand, it's pretty specific to the two of you. Your future counters to his counters and so forth may eventually have lower percentages of occurring during the tournaments and so forth.

That said, my real suggestion is to learn to run the circle on him and others from the top position, and not focus for a while on the sub part. Part of this stems from this crazy small 145-150 lb brown belt that we have that spends most of his time on mastering position. I've said it before, this guy puts on incredible pressure, and I watch him just move from one position to the next almost effortlessly on a lot of guys, submissions are presenting themselves all the time for the guy, but he just keeps switching positions, smiling the whole time, I freakin' hate it.

First half circle:
Anyway, after you pass, and you are in 100K, try going to the reverse scarfhold, back to 100K, to scarfhold, back to 100K, to north south, to 100K on the other side, then hit the 2 scarfholds. That's one half of the circle.

Second half circle:
The other half is 100K to knee on stomach to mount to knee on stomach on the other side to 100K.

Now here's some stuff that I learned from the guy, and another that may help you with your partner. The setup for the knee on stomach - normally, it is taught to be controlling the guy with a grip somewhere on his lapel behind his head, and the other on the pants to use to open and clear the knee. This variation I've been finding to be a little more effective - try switching your hand that's toward the head to over the top such that you are doing a cheesy forearm to the throat choke that won't work. Usually this causes a guy to focus on the choke and doesn't believe knee on stomach is coming. Now, instead of rising up the normal way, what you do is switch your hips including your legs somewhat to face his head, and you sit your butt on his chest with your knee kind of on top of his near shoulder and then slide up to knee on stomach. This clears the knee from blocking. Now if his hand came up to protect the neck you can go for a deep knee on stomach directly across his hip line, and pack the top of your foot against his hip. If he kept his arm to the side, then he may catch your foot, but you do stand a chance by starting from being on your butt to slide the top of your foot along his body to get it down by his hip. Now if he is starting to catch your foot, this is this brown belt's trick, he'll start to transition to mount, but instead of putting his feet on the floor, he hooks his feet between the guys thighs, real shallow, so as to not get trapped in half guard. This for him is a very mobile transition - if he attacks the neck, the hands *may* come up such that he can transition to the proper mount - ie. move his feet under the guy, or he can fight the hands to do the same thing. If he doesn't get the real mount, the position of his feet are such that he can transition to either side to a deep knee on stomach across the hips. If there is some threat from there, he just transitions back to 100 K or that little hook mount and keeps going, all around, he goes, he throws in some other odd mounts too, like sitting side saddle, and sitting on top with his legs spread out all the way, here, he'll grab the lapels and arch back about 30 deg, and literally, you cannot breathe.

For the circle going the other way for your partner, at some point - from the reverse scarfhold (if I have the name for the scarfhold (we don't use that term) is wrong I just mean being on top but having your body turned to the side, in the reverse case, I mean your back is toward his head), his hand may push on your back, from there, you need to just start running backwards with your hips to the ground until you can switch your hips back to 100K position, and trap that arm between his head and your thigh. Look for this on any passes immediately where your back ends up facing his head - ie. toriana, turning your back to pass a sitting guard, cobrihna pass - not sure the real name to it, etc. it may just turn up.

Anyway, my suggestion is to really forego the sub attempts, and practice running full circles on the guys controlling each position for a few moments, then move to the next one after a count of 10-20 or as they try to escape move to the next one. Consider a half circle a victory. Practice on both the lower and upper belts. A lot of people suggest to try new stuff on the lower belts and fight the upper/same belts, but the problem lies in that lower belts often don't react the same way. We have a guy that drives up to train with the black belts and other upper belts at the HQ, and he comes back with moves that don't really work on the lower guys since they don't react to the previous set up correctly. Basically, I'm saying that if you can control the top position using all those transitions, then the submissions at some point will simply be given to you. So perhaps try to do what our little brown belt does and just skip out on the subs for a while as they appear, if your ego can handle it lol, and just keep switching positions until you notice some real improvement, whether it's a week or a month. Sure do your sub stuff part of the time to practice that, but also purposefully spend some time running these circles, and don't tell the guys what your up to, so that they react as they normally would.

Geez, that's more like a 7 cent post.

I will say as a whole you are completly correct, but there were a few exceptions and that is what I thought they were, but all of them happened to be higher belts and one in particular that was dissapointing that was a black belt with students in attendance.

I've seen guys act really poorly at tounaments but for the most part I have found BJJ guys really good sports. Often times I think the disapointment after loosing a fight is not so much anger with your competitor, or the ref, or ....whatever, It's more being upset with yourself for getting caught. It is easy for this to seem unsportsmanlike. Of coarse, there are jackasses in any sport, but I think BJJ as a whole is very sportsman like.

I'm not sure if He visits this forum not, but I wanted to give a big atta boy to my friend and trainig partner, Mike Robinson. Mike earned his purple belt this winter and is now opening a school in Lisbon Maine.

He is a great training partner and has put countless hours in on the mat honing his craft. He is part of the reason that I have fallen in love with this sport.. If any of you from up here in the north east know Mike, please contact him an congradulate him. The web site for his school is,

http://www.lisbonbjj.com/index.html

I made a post on his site when he started that I would like to share with everyone. Please comment, I hope you all have the same experience.

I would like to be the first to comment so that maybe I can let you know, Mike, How great it is that you are setting up a new school. The space looks top notch and the atmosphere could not be better.

When I started training you were one of the guys who helped to get me hooked on Jiu Jitsu, and hooked I have become! Here was a guy who had zero martial arts training, was out of shape and somewhat over weight. I was made to feel safe and welcome in the gym and I'm sure that that is a big part of why I have stuck with it. To learn a martial art in an enviroment that allows you to see the technique and apply it in a live spar withought feeling as though I might get hurt is great. The way in which You and Rick and Aaron instruct has tuely changed the way I approach my Day to day life.

Anyone new to BJJ might only have what they see in the UFC for knowledge on BJJ is. It does not take long training with guys Like Mike to realize that the UFC only touches the outer surface of what BJJ really is.

There is a Jiu-Jitsu Fighter in the UFC named Damian Mia who when asked what his game plan in a fight is, he supposedly says, "To submit my opponent with out hurting him or allowing him to hurt me." I don't know if this is the actual quote but regardless if it is or not, that is how I think of BJJ. And that is the vibe I feel at Lisbon BJJ

Anyway, If anyone is reading this and think they might like to try Jiu Jitsu but are worried that they might get hurt, Lisbon BJJ is the place for you to come and train. Excellent instruction in a comfortable atmosphere. Come down and catch the addiction that is Brazilian Jiu Jitsu!

Thanks you Mike, for addicting me!

Guys my wife and I were talking after the IBJJF tournament about sportsmanship and the effect it has on people in martial arts. She brought to my attention that there were some upper level belts that took their losses at the tournament very badly and did not show good sportsmanship. Since this was my first tournament I didn't know if this was something that was a regular occurance or if it was an isolated one?

BTW PT was as nice of a guy as everyone has said and is an ispiration to all of us old dudes...especially competing at the adult level....a few years under his correct age . Great to meet him see him in action.

I personally think Bravo is a tool that has hurt the sport than help it. I think a lot of guys like Jack and I are so irked that any Tapout wearing tool that watches UFC thinks so great of Eddie, but doesn't know grapplers ten times the record as him. He walks around touting his 'revolutionary' aspects of his no-gi system yet it has absolutely no track record of being anything close to revolutionary. Any criticism he gets seems to be merited in my opinion.

Would you mind expanding on this? How has he hurt the sport specifically? Who are some no-gi names I should know better?

I don't know how Locke feels but personally anyone that could potentially be an influence in the bjj community that promotes an alternate lifestyle like he does is doing wrong. There was a time and still is in some organizations where if you were not an exemplary individual off of the mat you did not receive a black belt (see other Kevin Casey threads). So we have a guy that is very good at self promotion and making a living, no problem there, but he is openly saying "I smoke pot and I am proud of it". In fact he says it helps his game Now I can call bullshit, but a 10 or 11 year old that is just getting in jits doesn't or may not know any better.

And for the point behind the competing, it is not that Eddie himself has to compete to prove anything if he doesn't want to but he at least needs to have somebody consistently or a few people sporadically that are in the top 3 in order to say you have the "ultimate nogi system" and somebody believe it. I think you would be hard pressed to name an affiliation/instructor that anyone would have heard of that doesn't have competitors that place consistenly if they actually compete. There may be some top flight instructors that are not competition driven like Alliance or GB but they do have competitors that can and have hung with the best of the best.

Plus if you are not doing it for competition, or specifically for MMA then what are you doing nogi for? In case you get attacked by a gang of surfer muggers in there speedos and rashguards? If it is not for either of those standard situations (competition or self defense) then you are basically just rolling around in your underwear with other grown men

This post ranges from "somebody think of the children" to "no-gi is for latent homosexuals". Let's get this guy an award.

Opportunity to go north/south on him - is he any good at escaping north/south?

While going north/south when you move your leg side arm to block his hips grab his wrist since it should be right there. There is a nasty kimura you can do from north/south by laying your armpit/shoulder across his collar bone on the kimura side arm - very difficult to escape from IMO.

Anyway I can picture how to set the kimura in my head but nobody leaves their arm down for me to do it.

You could also go reverse scarf - he's either going to have that near side arm trapped at his side or he'll move it to better attack/defend - if he moves it then take normal side or switch to mount.

As you know the best way to figure something out is to be put in that situation a thousand times. You'll eventually figure something out.

Good Luck!

Try to submit him from side control? Far side armbar or kimura, or collar choke? Go to north/south?

Or just grip the sleeve of his near arm before you go to knee on belly. I usually grip the near sleeve and near side of the collar when I hold knee on belly anyway.

I dunno dude, you're a purple getting advice from a bunch of white and blue belts on here so I'm not sure how much help we can really be. Maybe Jack or PT will show up with some good tips for this situation.

Mat, if you are referring to his hand that most people monitor your hips with and block you from going north south with or the "top" hand I guess in this decription then scoop it. If that arm is straight then it is not strong and if you use your inside knee scoop under the arm with the knee and almost do a baseball slide....drag your left knee (if you are on his right side) to the right one that scooped the arm and replace so that you are at about a 45 degree angle and the arm is isolated then go back to taking the mount.

If it is that top one you could also go under it with your right hand and grip the back of the collar palm up, then do the cross grip on the lapel with the left and that is a nasty choke.

If it is the other side, unless he has the underhook who cares. You get it and isolate and arm bar with one knee on his stomach and the other on his head (inverted).

Just my .02 bma_mat but you are the purple dude so I am sure you have more knowledge and ability than I can muster....

or go to the north south choke.

or far side kimura

All the proud texans I know always mention that they are the only state that kept the right to succeed in their constitution without a problem from the US. Not that it is likely....John may have some insight on this. One of my business partners is from Houston and another from Dallas and so I have to hear the 'everything is bigger in Texas' nonsense quite a bit (and the cowboys, and mavericks, and texas etc all).
