    Anyone here mastered the hopping uchimata?

    I have used this throw extensively but to say expert is a stretch. main points I have seen people miss in no order... pull the sleeve down hard look down and out (I look for my outside heel on the plant foot) your own collar side elbow goes high but your two arms steering wheel down and up...

    Older BJJ'ers: returning or sitting out longer?

    46 here. I will be waiting a while. I may take a striking class (bag work only for now). Riding my mountain bike in the summer is a huge draw anyway so this is a pretty easy choice for me.

    IBJJF Pan Championship Likely To Be Canceled Due To Coronavirus Outbreak

    No way they move it out of SoCal. It would be great if they moved it around though. A whole different set of people in ATL or NYC or Chicago.

    Anyone worried about increased risk of viral infection due to contact?

    This came up and the gym the other day. I don't really care and I am at low risk but grappling has had it's share of bugs.......

    lucas lepri bjj

    I have visited LL on a few occasions. Both in Atlanta and his new place. He is an outstanding teacher and I don't think all high level players are. I know his business partner is a black belt and there were guys visiting from other places. It seems like Alliance likes to bring Brazilians up...

    NCAA Wrestling... Why the Hate?

    I love Wardzinskis game. So fun to watch. And it is impressive if he does not train hard before big tournaments. With that said I stand by my statement. Top guys in both disciplines train equally hard. Outliers always exist. I would say top wrestlers have more dialed in training at the...

    NCAA Wrestling... Why the Hate?

    Apples to oranges. A majority of wrestlers are school kids (elementary, high school, college) the majority of bjj players are older. I certainly worked out harder when I wrestled than I now do in BJJ. I also work full time and have three kids. Top athletes in both train equally as hard.

    Are there BJJ heads that don't care about MMA?

    I kind of like this question. It makes me assess my own journey. I think I know a half dozen guys similar to me. Wrestled in high school. Did some club wrestling in college (very limited). Got in to rock climbing/kayaking/etc....in college. Got out and had a family. No time to be gone for...

    Scarfhold in BJJ

    I wont disagree with anything you said. I will say that if your emphasis is bjj you could probably use your time better learning other things. I would say the same thing regarding knee on belly in judo, its just not worth the time.... If you are like me (or it sounds like you) and you have...

    Scarfhold in BJJ

    Ruleset..... Pinning in BJJ does not help. You have to advance position from side control (or finish). If i can hold you all day but get penalized for not advancing I am actually hurting my game. Pinning in BJJ is fine to waste a bit of time and suck a bit of life but you have to be careful...
