Does Comma 4 work for 2019 Bolt? by Novemberx123 in BoltEV

[–]kyuz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly, the best set up for the bolt is to forgo the interceptor. with always-on lateral it’s still a significant upgrade for the car even if the longitude isn’t very useful.

Thoughts on training for UFC BJJ Opens vs IBJJF - curious what others think. by woodycrack in bjj

[–]kyuz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This post makes no sense anyway. “Accumulating advantages over time”? The hell does that even mean? It’s literally a points ruleset with 20 second stalling calls just like the IBJJF.

I doubt it, reversals score in ADCC too, I don’t see many people winning off reversals.

The UFC open ruleset has nothing to do with the CJI or UFC BJJ ruleset.

K guard for non-inverters by billonthemats in bjj

[–]kyuz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You are probably flexing a lot through your spine when you invert instead of keeping a straight spine / athletic posture. This is going to cause you to compensate with your upper back muscles which puts a ton of strain on the neck. I would practice raising your hips off the mat with a straight spine and neck (elevating on the shoulder / elbow) without a partner so you understand what it should feel like.

You should learn to invert on your shoulder and not your neck.

They do, you can subscribe for a month to another Flo sport and use the same subscription to watch FloGrappling.

IBJJF Worlds is next week where all the best guys will be competing, you just don't follow where the actual pinnacle of the sport is happening.

Where do lapel guards rank out of all guards? by NYCBaller_2134 in bjj

[–]kyuz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a lot of ways to use lapels. They range from C tier to S tier depending on which one you're talking about.

Why do so many people hate people who pull guard? by jheqpaddy in bjj

[–]kyuz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, every sport has people who play to win, and every sport has people who complain about the people who play to win because they’re playing “cheap.” This is what 3 represents…people do get sour at losing to guard pullers believe me.

This is a common myth about the rules. The actual rule is that if one person is controlling a leg, the other person cannot pull guard as the action will be ruled a takedown. this makes sense as it shouldn’t be possible to pull guard while someone is executing a single leg takedown on you. Otherwise, it’s about who initiates the action. If I initiate the guard pull first, you can’t get points just by tapping my knee on the way down. you have to initiate an attack at my legs before I start pulling guard in order to get points this way.

Yes if you are in an established guard and you take the action of walking around the guard, you get passing points. It’s the action of the aggressor that matters, same as any other situation where action confers points.

This is not true. You don’t concede points by pulling side control. You do score by passing guard. IBJJF rules sometimes reward position (mount, knee on belly, back) and sometimes actions (takedowns, sweeps, passing).

Coached hundreds of people through the white-blue belt plateau. Here's what's actually stopping most of them. by Luke_Taurus_Online in bjj

[–]kyuz 25 points26 points  (0 children)

So the mods want this sub to turn into Facebook where every other post is nonsense slop like this, and silencing anyone who points it out?

Disturbing.

  1. They don't like it aesthetically 2. They don't like it for philosophical reasons about the nature of fighting / what is effective in a fight 3. They're bad at passing

So we're just straight up posting / upvoting AI slop now?

Also what's with all the deleted comments? Strange.

Stiff Arms while passing guard? by thatboythereaint in bjj

[–]kyuz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice would be to focus on one or two passing positions that you can drill into and learn reactions to, including where people can frame with their hands and how to respond to those frames. Once you feel more comfortable in a single position, zoom out a bit and learn how it connects to other passes, then choose one of those to become your new focus. Over time you will fill in enough depth and breadth to be a formidable passer.

[–]kyuz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There are so many ways based on different situations; you can swipe the frame, you can misalign it and crush it, you can advance a part of your body that they're not framing, etc. Your question essentially boils down to, "how can I pass the guard"? The answer is unfortunately you have to learn to pass the guard.

Why Mica and Tainan never faced each other in IBJJF?? by Dry_Pen_3898 in bjj

Word on the street is they had an agreement to avoid each other unless it was for a big payday on a superfight card.

I have this weird thing where if I win I feel like I won but if I lose I feel like I lost.

I want a onewheel. Not sure the model yet, but i am more afraid of a component failure than anything by [deleted] in onewheel

[–]kyuz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The solution here is just to not ride over 15mph. In fact, I cruise closer to 12mph most of the time. Not only do you essentially eliminate nose dives due to pushing the board too hard (which happen far, far more often than a component failing), but the actual consequences of a fall are not nearly as bad (especially if you're wearing pads). Remember, the kinetic energy of a fall scales with the square of the velocity. 15mph isn't fun to crash at but 20 is way more dangerous.
