jiu-jitsu fighter

bjj has popular for quite some time and is not a phad like ninjutsu ,its popular because its good

i think your reffering to "rings" its a no-hold-barred competition

oh sorry i meant to say marcus's place,

nice,, i have been using spider guard alot but only as a transitional thing, i use it to defend against the guy from passing my guard ,

ok zero, but are you in a dominant position, if not you should get into one, by advanced i mean kneebars,heel hooks, clock chokes, um.......transition fron triangle to armbar is another one.............spider guard i just started using stuff other than the basics

dunno check out https://www.ufc.com

when did you guys start mixing in advanced techniques into your arsenal, like i have been studying bjj for 5 months and only now am i incorporating some advanced stuff, how bout you guys?

very true kensai, but if i was in dobers place i would take this bastard to small claims court and sue him for lesion and threaten to call the better business bureau

i ice them than i put tape on them so they don't move( if you have to train the next day)

its different...........very different

exactly what kirves said, if you do exercies and drills using the katas and learn how they work and spar and not just do the kata all the time by yourself, than there are benefits

blue,purple,brown,black approx, 1year =blue 3 years =purple 5-7 years = brown 7-10 years= black

hmmmmmmmmmmm

ya my friend is from russia and hes pretty good at it, it incorporates kicking punching throwin and ground fighting also weapons ,too bad i don't have anywhere to go check it out

if you don't feel that you deserve a blue belt wearing it is up to you. for a clear and very smart explanation of what a blue belt should be go to https://www.royharris.com and he has some good articles. anyways a blue belt should be good.........but not amazing, he should be able to do the basics properly and some,advanced, a little advanced stuff, but it depends what the quality of your instructor is and how long it takes you to improve, like a year is usually a good amount of time to get a blue belt, but i know people that got theirs in 8 months and i know someone is has been studying bjj for 2 years and still doesn't have one , what i was told is that when you can roll with the blue belts and give them a hard time and tap them out sometimes and you have become about their level thats when you receive a blue belt.

kick the bag

no way man it takes on average like a year to get a blue belt whenre i train although my gym is known for producing top bjj players

sometimes i don't feel like goin to the academy ,like im tired or ill etc.... but even if i don't participate i will still drag my ass there and watch the class thats how much a part of my life it is

very true slider. bjj is a very technically equiped system of combat we know how to deal with strikers very very true heel hook, like flying guillotine, flying triangle, standing triangle, flying armbar, we got a fwew wrist locks we have enough stuff to control someone standing up the only thing is you have to ask your instructor to teach you them and most people never do

its called a takedown from the ground dober, i can't tell you the specific one but thats what your talking about, when your on your back than you make him fall on his back and you take mount its a great technique

i love it , i can't stop, its the feeling of acomplishment and confidence that grows in you,

don't call bruce lee overated, your showing the utmost disrespect, bruce trained people like larry hartsell and dan inosanto he deserves alot more respect than your showing

YES bite his ankles like a crazy gremlin

WHATEVER YOU DO, EITHER KEEP BOTH HAND IN HIS LEGS OR BOTH HANDS OUT, CUZ IF YOU PUT ONLY ONE IN THAN UR GONNA GET TRIANGLED (choked) and im sure you don't want that

i would have to say that if your a grappler learn some striking and if your a striker learn some grappling, its better to be well rounded
