Fu Man Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 Has anyone on this forum cross trained Judo and JJJ at the same time? If so, how was the experience? Did you find yourself improving faster in both martial arts or did it impede your progress?A friend of mine attends a terrific JJJ dojo, and I am thinking of joining. Currently I practice Judo and Karate. However, I am seriously leaning towards adding another grappling art in lieu of Karate. I studied another striking martial art for several years, which is extremely similar to Karate. However, grappling martial arts are a new experience for me, and I would like to greatly improve in this area.Thanks in advance for any feedback.

goshinman Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 I think that you definately should do it. Your trainining in full contact judo will help you to see how to apply the more eccentric techniques of JJJ in ways that you would never get without judo training. It's just something about doing a full force martial art that helps you be able to see the gaps to apply complicated techniques such as wristlocks and the like. Tapped out, knocked out, or choked out...Take your pick.http://jujitsu4u.com/http://www.combatwrestling.com/http://gokor.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
