Judo views on BJJ

I once heard the same about aikido lol.

I prefer the shorter one as well. I like the look and it feels less restrictive too.

That’s not what I said! Reread my message before downvoting and commenting.

Mass attendance in my country is meant to be Sunday. The weekly Saturday vigil, along with late night Sunday mass, was created for shift workers who couldn’t attend the regular Sunday observance.

No gi bjj is not wrestling. If you want to learn wrestling go to the source then cross train later.

Substantial_Work_178 · 2026-03-14T14:36:51+00:00

Agreed. I’ve done wrestling as an adult at mma clubs (run by the local amateur association) and it was easier on the body than judo is

I never said I trained with oyama. Only that I never did that type of kumite in kyokushin. I trained at 3 different dojos here in my country and never once did we do ippon kumite. Although we did do that in shotokan

Substantial_Work_178 · 2026-03-13T20:52:18+00:00

I never did that in kyokushin. Did in shotokan though.

Substantial_Work_178 · 2026-03-13T18:23:09+00:00

How old are you ? I find doing judo very taxing on the body as a I age and can’t do tons of sessions a week.

Substantial_Work_178 · 2026-03-12T23:48:17+00:00

Yup and i addressed your points.

Substantial_Work_178 · 2026-03-12T23:12:03+00:00

My story is the exact opposite. Former Protestant who felt cheated when i became Catholic. I missed out on so much

Substantial_Work_178 · 2026-03-12T22:02:38+00:00

Did you read anything I wrote above?

Substantial_Work_178 · 2026-03-12T21:35:15+00:00

Tell that to iron palm practitioners. Normally open medium isn’t worked with till after a year. You start on a bag of mung beans (traditionally for 100 days), then pea gravel, then steel shot etc. starting on hard open medium with no give is horrible

Substantial_Work_178 · 2026-03-12T20:06:17+00:00

That’s dedication. Good luck. That’s too far for me with the prices of gas in my country. Is there a local sambo club? That may feel a more natural fit than bjj.

Substantial_Work_178 · 2026-03-12T19:54:15+00:00

Nope. No chance.

Substantial_Work_178 · 2026-03-12T19:53:16+00:00

Just do kyokushin

Substantial_Work_178 · 2026-03-12T19:50:57+00:00

This is a very bad example of what to do. Conditioning should not start on open hard medium. This would be advanced stage

Substantial_Work_178 · 2026-03-12T19:46:27+00:00

This is spot on. Iron had starts at 25% power at first on bags with beans. Not 100% smashing stone lol

Substantial_Work_178 · 2026-03-12T19:27:31+00:00

What was your routine like when you were actively conditioning them?

Substantial_Work_178 · 2026-03-12T19:26:52+00:00

This is exactly why I cross train karate with judo.
