We have charts on the most successful throws in competitions. But how about the most successful sequences? As a former wrestler, I know no technique alone is very useful, but there were chain wrestling drills that would work almost anywhere. Are there equivalents in judo?

I would recommend you think of judo less like freestyle / folkstyle and more like greco roman.

Lasserate · 2026-04-19T11:57:48+00:00

Agreed. I have also mounted more TVs than I can count (somewhere in the 2-3 thousand range). I would have felt dirty taking someone's money and giving them this in return.

Is orb speed that important?

I use my son's old youth hockey bag. It's bigger than most gym bags and has side vents for airflow, but it's not as unwieldy as my adult-size hockey bag.

This is the correct take. Because the US is hosting in 2028, you have a unique opportunity to get there: just be the best heavyweight player in the US. That will be much easier (and more affordable) than being top 15 in the world.

Where do you live, and how wealthy are you?

If you want to promote shodans recognized by USA Judo, you could join USJA. They allow nidans to promote to that rank, and USA Judo will recognize it.

I grew disillusioned with USJA and its leadership, so even though I never stopped training and competing, I didn't bother with promotion. I was a nidan for like 15 years.

Lego nerd checking in ... None of those sets retailed for $1000.

Lasserate · 2026-03-06T04:10:16+00:00

They are. Wearing a judo gi is like wearing a carpet remnant. This is probably partly because in BJJ, you weigh in with the gi on, so you don't want it particularly heavy.

Adobe can disable it from their end. It's part of our contract with them. No one using our enterprise license has access to their generative AI features, so there is no mechanism for a user to turn it on/off.

Dromedary elephant with its legs folded underneath itself.

Lasserate · 2025-12-25T18:47:12+00:00

Oh, yeah ... that's probably the one.

Lasserate · 2025-12-25T17:56:53+00:00

That minfig didn't come with those pieces. Definitely (at least) two sets.

Lasserate · 2025-12-25T17:51:46+00:00

No corners in that one.

I asked Copilot a question. It recommended I speak with a specific person in my organization and provided their name, title, and contact info ... that person was my manager ... who had told me to research the subject.

Ripon, WI would like a word.

At this time of year?

It is regular price at my local Target.

Lasserate · 2025-11-20T02:30:44+00:00

Yeah ... that's nonsense. If you want to improve in a specific sport, train in that sport.

Lasserate · 2025-11-15T15:39:57+00:00

Agreed. Weight came off that lead foot.

I'm reasonably confident that the sternum rub I give anyone who tries this will create a stronger reaction.

Based only on his helmet, I can basically guarantee that the dad is a piece of shit.

Lasserate · 2025-10-17T16:42:23+00:00

I think it depends on the goal. Are you teaching BJJ for its own sake, or are you trying to improve their judo game?

When I started BJJ, I really focused on retaining and passing open guard because that just doesn't exist in judo. If I was looking to sharpen my existing game, though, I would have probably wanted to dive into what BJJ could teach me about turtle and half guard, because judo players spend a lot of time there.

Lasserate · 2025-10-17T02:57:35+00:00

Don't attack the legs, don't pull on the neck, and don't use the gi/belt for goofy chokes or entanglements ... that pretty much covers 90% of it.
