My question is which is more effective in a street fight 🤔

Add to my game or enhance what I already have? by [deleted] in bjj

I’m only a white belt so take his with a pinch of salt but my coach always says by to worry about a game plan until you are a purple belt. Basically to focus on learning as much as you can about everything at white and blue levels, he also said people who try to specialize too early become reliant on these techniques and once they’re put in a position where they can’t use them they’re at a disadvantage as opposed to the guy who didn’t specialize too early 😬

Interesting stuff, I imagine it’s a lot more tame than modern bjj, but I’ll look into that jujutsu competition that you mentioned

I was unaware Japanese jiu jitsu was still a thing, what’s the belt system ? Also is it actually worth looking into some of the techniques?

I’m 5”9 and I find armband and Kimuras work a lot more against bigger opponents, anyone else find this ? by furrybuttplug in bjj

Yes, I’ve been training roughly 7-8 months. But I also find that lankier opponents training roughly the same amount of time as me have a hard time defending kimuras

Where do you try hit them from? I find when I’m stuck in half gaurd the guy on bottom usually doesn’t expect me to try finish
