xo-karate Posted March 19, 2013 Posted March 19, 2013 Ofcourse Judo needs power and strength! If it wouldn't need it, how could it develop it?"What you do, is what you get" - is the principle in physical training.OK - in the beginning, if you don't have strength, you can do techniques and randori with lower intensity. (And also learn the techniques better when you cannot muscle them.)
Lupin1 Posted March 19, 2013 Author Posted March 19, 2013 Don't worry guys, I think I'm good. The other night we were working on a technique where you pretty much pick a turtling opponent up off the floor by his gi, flip 'em around and put 'em back down (elbow and knee pull) and after I tried it my instructor said sort of under his breath, "you're a strong kid, Devin... Strong kid...". I got this.
