I do Judo now and even though my body hurts after training I couldn't imagine training without randori. I was afraid of injuries too but at some point you simply have to forget about it and do the thing. Without actual resistance no technique will work. Good luck!

<Lmaoo>

I did manage to step on his toe once. It was an accident but it really made me happy.

There are many kids in the class, they comfortably do their own thing. There are 3-4 grown ups. Most of the time it's just 2 of us unfortunately. The school is quite new so that is the problem.

You are right, I will talk to him for sure. I just hate to bring up that kind of stuff. The instructor might think I'm a sissy or something because I complain about roughness. You know how it is...

I agree with you about good bjj schools but I just want to focus more on throws right now. If you have a sane training partner there should be no risk of a big injury. I will show up on the class and if I see that there are no good training partners I will just practice ukemi in the corner.

I live in a small place right now where there are no other Judo schools. I could drive for one hour to another place though. I wouldn't be doing judo for too long, I just want to get well familiar with the throws. I'm not planning to compete for sure.

I started doing Judo while ago and the gym is small, not many members. There are few adult ones including me, but they skip training often. So the instructor pairs me with this jerk who is incredibly rude and too rough even though we are all beginners including him. The last time he threw some...

You are never too old for JJ. Besides, as coach Firas Zahabi said you can kick ass basically till the age of 45, and I'm sure even after that. Just be smart. Wish you luck!

Ouch. Somebody is jealous cause the Gracies prove again and again effectiveness of GJJ.

What happened to his great shows? He can't find any MMA dude to do the show? He should bring Josh Barnett!

You show them, son!

I guess people don't understand what is a blue belt from Gracie's point of view. Blue belt is mostly about self defense. It's the most important belt according to Rickson. Tournaments? Who cares about the tournaments, it's your choice if you want to compete or not.

Congratulation!

We have seen many bjj guys eating punches in real fights on the streets. You should check it on youtube, there are a lot of videos. The difference between GJJ and BJJ is not so much about techniques, it's about mentality. You are talking about practicing open hands punching but how many other...

Just another hater... stand in the line, man :)

Obesity has all the negative sides, at least it kicks asses in JJ. Just deal with it.

All I'm gonna say is I wouldn't bite on somebody's testicles even if my life would depend on it. No way, Jose.

While I can agree with - being young can be an excuse for making poor decisions, I don't agree putting Ryan in the same league with Tyson, Ali, McGregor etc. He is not the best in what he does, he still has to prove how good he is. In any case such attitude is disliked by almost everyone, more...

Being young is not an excuse for arrogance. There are many successful young grapplers but they don't behave like Gordon Ryan. He might be naturally stupid though, that is a decent excuse.
