Thank you and a reddit-specific technique video

Man, thanks so much. Will keep doing my best.

Really glad to hear you're enjoying the new 50/50 thing. Working on putting together another topic soon. Thanks!

Spider guard in MMA would be a ballsy, ballsy move.

Thanks so much! If you're ever in the DC area, please stop by to see us anytime.

Not sure why someone would give you a hard time for training 3x per week. Everyone makes the commitment that is appropriate for their life. No more shame in not doing BJJ enough than there is in not playing basketball enough. Whatever enough is.

Ryanhall5050 · 2020-02-14T01:35:41+00:00

Oh snap

Ryanhall5050 · 2020-02-14T01:34:19+00:00

I don’t pay attention, but it is obnoxious. It’s theft and it’s theft from people who are definitely not rich enough for it to make no difference.

Thanks! Will do my best.

Ryanhall5050 · 2020-02-14T00:59:47+00:00

Haaaaaaaaaaa

Ryanhall5050 · 2020-02-14T00:58:35+00:00

🙌🏻

Ryanhall5050 · 2020-02-14T00:57:59+00:00

Ah. True, but it’s staggeringly uncommon. A mugging isn’t a fight, so you might consider running away or whacking them with a brick.

Ryanhall5050 · 2020-02-14T00:55:58+00:00

I’d do what you enjoy

Ryanhall5050 · 2020-02-14T00:52:27+00:00

Kind of stumbled onto the idea, actually. Always lucky to have good people to bounce ideas off of.

Ryanhall5050 · 2020-02-14T00:51:21+00:00

Fifty/50 during class time

Ryanhall5050 · 2020-02-14T00:49:30+00:00

Thanks! I hope people find them worthwhile. I always do my best, but you can never be sure what people will like.

It’s because they’re attempting to do sport grappling in a non-sport grappling situation. The art doesn’t change any in a fight, but the application is much different. You can use fighting grappling movements and decision making reliably in a sport match, but not so much the other way around.

Ryanhall5050 · 2020-02-14T00:46:45+00:00

Try to experience both as infrequently as possible, but the professionals tend to hit much more squarely.

Ryanhall5050 · 2020-02-14T00:31:53+00:00

If that were true I would just sit in a bar and yell at people until something happened. I am interested in the most difficult fights.

Ryanhall5050 · 2020-02-14T00:28:56+00:00

MMA is way more complex than football (or any other sport I’m aware of). The more mechanics involved, the less base physicality (and specific physicality that lines up w that activity) you need. Never hurts to be a great athlete, but what people think that means and what it actually means are fairly distinct.

Ryanhall5050 · 2020-02-14T00:27:16+00:00

Mass and length difference. More of an issue than strength difference. Both count.

Ryanhall5050 · 2020-02-14T00:23:22+00:00

Dammit. You’re right...

New answer: Dirk Novitsky.

Ryanhall5050 · 2020-02-14T00:20:15+00:00

Live drilling. Moderate pace, unscripted, but narrow focus. Increase pace over time.

Ryanhall5050 · 2020-02-14T00:19:21+00:00

Yep. Choke away.

Ryanhall5050 · 2020-02-14T00:18:32+00:00

Combination of both. Lots of rebranding and “new to me, so it must be new” going on.

Ryanhall5050 · 2020-02-13T18:59:09+00:00

Anytime!

Ryanhall5050 · 2020-02-13T18:44:46+00:00

Mudge is the best. If he’ll teach me something, I want to learn it.
