youremean Posted August 6, 2004 Posted August 6, 2004 What are some moves in BJJ that are illegal in highschool wrestling?

Red J Posted August 6, 2004 Posted August 6, 2004 Let's see.....chokes, arm bars, joint locks, submission holds.....basically all the fun stuff. I had to lose my mind to come to my senses.
youremean Posted August 7, 2004 Author Posted August 7, 2004 geeze. then I guess BJJ wouldn't help me a lot with wrestling thanks for posting Instructor:"You're not gonna be able to see if you don't cut your hair.""Haha.

White Warlock Posted August 7, 2004 Posted August 7, 2004 That's a silly way of thinking. You asked what can't be used, you didn't ask what could be used. "When you are able to take the keys from my hand, you will be ready to drive." - Shaolin DMV TestIntro
youremean Posted August 7, 2004 Author Posted August 7, 2004 so... what can be used? Instructor:"You're not gonna be able to see if you don't cut your hair.""Haha. Too bad.""A martial artist who has never sparred is like a swimmer who has never entered water."-Bruce Lee
unknown Posted August 16, 2004 Posted August 16, 2004 wrestling and submission grappling are two entriely different sports. you could probably use some of the throws - the double leg takedown is a common interchangable technique used. as for being on the ground.....if you are flat on your back in wrestling then you are the loser.....however not all hope is lost if you are flat on your back in grappling.
SoulAssassin Posted August 19, 2004 Posted August 19, 2004 another way to look at it is what the ref cant see cant hurt, but then again most people say thats un-sportsmen like conduct, but then again you do what you gotta do to win. -SoulAssassin"I aint gonna eat, I aint gonna sleep, aint gonna breath till I see what I wanna see and what I wanna see is you goto asleep, in the dirt permanently"
Kyle-san Posted August 21, 2004 Posted August 21, 2004 another way to look at it is what the ref cant see cant hurt, but then again most people say thats un-sportsmen like conduct, but then again you do what you gotta do to win. In a competition, that's just dirty. In an actual fight, that's a good way to think.
Judo Warrior Posted August 23, 2004 Posted August 23, 2004 Last year was my first year in High School and I joined the wrestling team. From what I saw, 95% of the people just go for the double leg takedown. A lot of Judokas who were on their High School's wrestling team, usually won their fights by doing throws which either made their opponents get really hurt making them not do anything or resist when they got to the ground, so all they had to to is just pin them, or it really hurt their opponents making them not continue the match which is an automatic win. I recommend u either take Wrestling or Judo if u want to have a better chance of being successful during the wrestling season. If u do take Judo just make sure u practice the throws during ur wrestling practice so u know how to use the throws without the Gi or during ur Judo class ask ur sensai what kind of throws are best used for the wrestling stance, since the wrestling stance is so low, its really hard to do some Judo throws. Thats actually a question i'd like to ask my sensai too - A coward dies a thousand deaths, A warrior dies but once.- No matter how strong the wind is, The mountain cannot bow to it.
