I actually did try a sacrifice throw and it didnt work too well. My timing was off and he landed on top. I have been drilling seoi nage. I realized it was going to take a long to get half decent at it but that's ok. I have felt some improvement compared to last year. I'm more frustrated...

Any tips on how to get the most out of randori with a bjj guy that is older (40+ but relatively new to judo), heavier and just kind of stalls using grips except for the odd counter? The size difference and my own lack of skill means I'm probably not gonna throw this dude. But he's to...

Purple belt takes a long time to get at my gym. I'm pretty sure you have to go more than twice a week for 3 years at least.

I train In Virginia too and that price looks fine to me for a BJJ/ MT gym. I assume gym owners in Europe/ Aus make most of their money from a percentage of fighter winnings and ticket sales?

I've been in several sub only tournaments. Cardio is really important. We do calisthenics, push ups sit ups burpees etc to prepare. Leg locks are great strategy. I won a no gi match by straight angle lock.

reading these posts makes being single easier. I haven't had to choose between BJJ and a woman. I could probably train 2 times a week and be fine but I'm not sure I could handle not training at all or only for an a hour a week.

Also has anyone seen a HEMA match that was exciting and professional ? Its been a while since I looked at it on youtube.

Not sure drilling your girlfriend is the best way to prepare for a tournament unless she is also a blue belt or higher.

Does your GF/ wife think you are kind of weird for training? I'm hesitant to tell girls I meet about it even though it is a big part of my life. Is it the type of thing you talk about when dating someone new?

That's really cool US grappling has such a good rep Bagels is still a brown belt actually, he's one of my coaches/ training partners/

How does the ruleset differ from IBJJF?

I was asking more about the interplay between Judo and BJJ in your area/ club and what you do to recruit and retain people on the judo mat, motivate them to compete etc.

yes. This is why I like Bernie Sanders and others like him. They don't play this stupid game and talk about issues that actually matter.

If that is the case than a good portion of conservatives have given up on politics. The left should ignore people like him and keep talking about medicare for all etc.

Compared to how much healthcare costs it is! Healthcare is really expensive and i could get sick without it. Also why do you care about this law if you don't have a problem with gay marriage or LGBT people? I remember when conservatives and the right wing did have problems with LGBT people...

This seems like a really petty thing to be bothered about. This is more important than how much healthcare costs to you?

That really isn't an argument for a political or economic policy. Or do you mean to say the right wing has just given up on making policy and laws?

So what are these public polices you oppose ?

What are these right learning arguments? And like I said, there's nothing the right can do about it. Gay marriage is legal, the church has less influence than ever etc

yes, Stealing trade secrets, manipulating trade deals and using forced labour kind of go without saying. All the early industrial countries did that did all that stuff in the 1800's and early 1900's when they carved up Africa, South America etc. That's how they were able to accumulate...
