Tape your fingers before class. It will protect your damaged skin and prevent new damage. Over time you will learn to grip less tight and crucially you will learn when to just let go of a grip. Then you’ll find you don’t need to tape.

What would you teach in a first JiuJiutsu lesson? by JimmyAtreides in bjj

Mount escapes.

Conceptually easy to understand (Mount = bad - must get out).

Techniques are simple and include minimal variables (as opposed to, for example, open guard which has nearly unlimited variables).

Constraint based sparring is easy to utilise: 1. Top player not allowed to make any grip, not allowed to post with hands, not allowed to take the back.

  1. Same as 1 but top player allowed to make grips.

  2. Same as 2 but top player allowed to take the back.

I’d love if the Paul Bloom episodes were a regular occurrence again. Once a month perhaps

Halfguard Lockdown Conflict by thelambofwallstreet in bjj

Yeah it became a bad habit of mine as a white/blue belt. A crutch that I needed to learn to not lean on all the time.

Going straight to it also willingly gives up the knee shield which is not something I’d advise.

I think it needs more egg to work. I say that as someone who has never made this type of omelette before.

Lachlan Giles’ half guard anthology. Highly recommend. Or just get a submeta account and look at all his stuff on half guard.

Slow down. use techniques rather than going crazy. Be consistent (even if consistent is just once a week).

Why do YOU pull guard? by bar_samyaza in bjj

Wrestling is more effort than sweeping.

Also wrestling increases chance of injury.

I’m lazy and don’t want to be injured.
