15+ years is a better gap for me o_O...there were far fewer people training and I think that we were much more excited about finding someone else training. A bloody nose or fat lip was much more common-maybe it was more physical or I was much cruder and possibly SPAZZIER. Blue belt instructors...
USADA ruins much of the UFC potential. I knock on guys for juicing-but it's because they know that they are breaking the rules. Juiced fighter's careers last longer, they heal faster, and put on a better show.
Weight cutting isn't bad-some guys are bad at cutting. If a fighter can make the...
53. 5'11" x 175. Train 3-5 nights a week. Most nights about three 5 or 6 minute rounds. Lift twice a week, cardio 1-3 a week (2k C2, 100 burpee type stuff) on non-jiu jitsu days. Shoulder and knee drama ALL THE TIME. I try not to roll hard more than once a week. Injuries are not 100%...

I have used the kayakpro and and would buy one if I planned on racing again.
Totally listening to you...I like yoga and I think that massage can be helpful as well.
I have recently been painfully reminded that beer doesn't seem to facilitate recovery or performance although it may aid in re-calibration.
It will be interesting, I think that leg locks will have to evolve differently for MMA than for most sport BJJ. Butt scooting and double guard pull haven't been widely successful entries yet-I don't know how well modern leg locks will translate into MMA finishes-there was one heel hook in the...
I think that the OP is more applicable to me than the linked article. Mostly because some of the Cash Bill points resonate with me:
I think that I might be a little bit older (and have two fewer years training) but I know that I sorely misused my body and (limited) athleticism in a number of...
As submission grappling evolves as a sport and moves further from the cage, it's reasonable to assume that we will see more focus on finishes and transitions that downplay the risk of striking. I don't believe that there were any UFC heel hook submissions in 2017. Maybe the DDS guys will...
We got UFC 2 at work because one of the guys was a TKD black belt and he thought TKD would dominate... I thought it was fake until Remco elbowed the kick boxer into oblivion. I was still into Muay Thai for a few years until jiu jitsu became more accessible.
