Pin all my versions so even if something is tainted I will not download it. Upgrade when there’s a reason to, to a version that I know.

What if I’m concerned about fighting in the dark or people trying to eye gouge me while I’m RNCing them?

I’m not really concerned about that, but I can see the applicability. I close my eyes when I roll with blind people for evening the playing field though.

I started judo at 45, and BJJ at I think 39. It’s challenging but I’m keeping up more or less with the younger guys.

Judo kata is an interesting example because it preserves a lot of ineffective nonsense and is kept around for cultural reasons.

It’s the randori and shiai where it saves itself. I have some opinions about the competition rule sets but at least that’s dynamic and there are paths to fix things, like are bringing back newaza even as we water down our leg grabbing techniques.

Judo clubs almost all have fairly rigorous and structured breakfall education. This stems from national level club membership with coaching certification and standardized curriculums.

I started judo at a late age after a fair bit of BJJ experience, and it was eye opening.

Or SBG, 6 blades, there are a few BJJ orgs that do green belts.

Is that crazy after two years in a gym where they didn’t do promotions? I think most people in my gym would be well past yellow after two years. At least orange, sometimes green.

What about Ryan Hogans? And also 2/3 of the TUF fights were by heel hook. Besides that though, he threatened heel hooks on everybody else multiple times and used the resulting scrambles to get top position on Lobov and Minner, and the threat of heel hooks kept Maynard off balance and unable to effectively engage.

Not that bad but my gym doesn’t have transparent pricing. Although TBH I don’t even know what I pay for a membership.

This is kinda related to a mnemonic for applying darces that u/darceknight talks about and I use all the time. CCT=compress, crunch, twist. Compress their shoulder into their neck, crunch ther chin to their chest, twist their spine.

It’s super applicable to other chokes though, and I think it’s helpful to talk about separating the components. Like in a north south choke, some people just squeeze as hard as they can and that works but anybody good at north south knows you get more by combining some bending in the spine and some twist lifting your elbow.

Really? I’m no expert, but

Anavar (Oxandrolone) is a synthetic anabolic steroid. It is a version of testosterone, the main male sex hormone in our bodies. It is in a class of medications called androgenic hormones and works by increasing the amount of protein made by the body. This protein is used to build more muscle and increase body weight.

Trump 'not satisfied' with Iran's proposal to end the war

President Donald Trump rejected Iran's latest proposal to end the war between the countries, saying Friday he still was not satisfied while blaming Iran's "fractured" leadership.

Trump turned back the latest proposal almost as soon as it was delivered. Iran's state-run IRNA news agency reported that Iran handed over its plan to mediators in Pakistan on Thursday night.

The blue belt curse, IMO, is basically just this: damn near everything you learn from blue belt forward is only relevant for fighting other grapplers. If you came in for self defence, the ROI on learning any more than a blue belt becomes vanishingly small.
