jiu-jitsu fighter

my first submission, i learned an armbar from mount, armbar from guard triangle choke americana i learned these my first class (semi private lesson) i don't remember but i think it was an arm bar or a triangle choke for my first submission

how often do you guys train and for how long are the classes ? and do any of you crosstrain and if so, in what ?

closed guard, used to control your opponent open guard , when your about to use a technique butterfly, this is the position where i do alot of sweeps spider guard, different way of controlling your opponent, you can attack from this position also, and make your opponent work hard, the spider guard is great, learn it good luck

thx guys

kensai, iwas just using that as an example any choke will do, don't want to leave bruises on his face or broken bones im 16 years old yellow snow , and he is one of our disliked friends , in the group of about 15 and he always ends up joining us , so theres really no avoidig him completely, but if it comes down to it, i will use everthing i have to defeat him , because he needs to be put in his place , and plus my kajukenbo purple belt friend will be by my side

intercept the kick with your shin , COULDN'T HAVE SAID IT BETTER MYSELF

because it uses leverage and technique over force and tradition

please don't insult groundfighting like that, there is a time and a place for everything, now you might not agree with their approach ,BUT NOONE IS FORCING YOU TO LEARN IT, and another thing bjj fighters do deserve some respect, because mostly all martial arts have adopted ground techniques after seeing the capabilities of a skilled bjj fighter , chang wuji, if you have nothing nice to say, don;t say anything at all

unless you can do it well and recover don't do it all, practice makes perfect, i have had some bad experiences using spin kicks so i just abandonned them and by doing so, i never exposed my back to my opponent

you should work on developing speed , before you start to focus on power, if u develop speed, than and only than should you begin to add more and more power to your techniques ,but having power should not compromise your speed

i actually tried kicking someone in the knee once and i did it hard and the guy's knee went in and hit the ground, but he got back up like 2 minutes later, a strong roundhouse to the knee should do the trick if you want to break it

i would probably sprawl and if i couldn't sprawl i would put u in my guard and work my submisions and strikes to finish u off good for you, shoot is an amazing style , keep it up

at least go to sseminars and when u do join a dojo, stay away from hard styles like karate and tae kwon do that force u to follow their set of techniques, choose a martial art that has an open mind like systema, or bjj, or shooto good luck

attacks from the guard, armbars, triangle choke, kimura, omaplata, spinal crank, guard attaks are a big part of my game

if i get in a fight with him im going for the choke , he is one of my friends after all, well not really, but anyways, im gonna put him to sleep in my triangle

he has tried to throw me when i would be walking around places like parks and houses and i would give him a few punches or kicks just to warn him to back off, and that works but only for a little while, than like an hour later he'll get back up after being aggravated by someone and say i have 3 months bjj traing anyone challenging me? and ill just be like sit the fu*k down. i don't know why he needs to prove himself in that manner, i told him if, he wanted to prove himself he should enter a tounament and fight against people his size and he always tells me ,i have plans or i don't have money, i just keep throwing my silver medal in his face (just won it a few weeks ago) and it makes him so mad haha,

im gonna f**k him up though ,there isn't gonna be a next time,

theres this guy in my group of friends who has done some bjj for like 3 months hes, very slow, and fat about 200 pounds and im 140, i have been studying bjj for 4 months and other systems of combat, he hasn't been to the dojo in 5 months and iknow i can beat him, but he always challenges me in front of people telling me im afraid of him and that im worse than him. he uses fould tactics during sparring like pinching, scratching, what should i do, to avoid fighting with this person, i know my skill level is superiour to his and i have nothing to prove. and he does this at social events, like im not here to train im here to have fun with friends , any suggestions?

BJJ.ORG, PEACE OUT MAN , AND DON'T LET THAT SPANDEX THING CUT OFF THE CIRCULATION

karate was purely japanese , wasn't it , i know ninpo is almost fully japanese

i agreee with you completely matburn and in fact i would strike and grapple with a guy my size to show him not to f*ck around and if his friends are there punch him or strike him in the face and throw him, his friends won't wanna mess, i would rather be an only grappler than only striker but the best combination is both, thats why i study bjj and boxing

i will not change the intensity of my training for her, mind you, there are other girls in the class an they don't complain,

bjj has some good throws , used in judo, but bjj wants to defeat and opponent on the ground and judo wants to knock and opponent out by throwing him, both similar arts, in my bjj we use gi 3 out of 4 weeks a month

evryone had a partner, and i didn't so , she acted as if she was doin me a favor , otherwise i would never roll with her im there to learn

kensai , u don't know much about the origin of bjj and its principles do you? , im just gonna stop arguing with you
