🧵 Wrist strenth can we make it better?
Anonymous at Wed, 6 Mar 2024 17:17:44 UTC No. 189602
So I am a blackbelt in taekwodo and started doing full contact muay thai for a while now but I feel like sometimes I can't put full power in my punches because of my wrist, sometimes if I punch to hard I feel like I'm going to injure my self so I take a lot of my power away trying to not get hurt
for those that are punchers do you do any conditioning or just keep practicing power punching until you get used and strong enough?
I have great technique so I don't think this is the problem, also my teacher told me that he have the same problem (even tho he is a young and good athlete)

I just wrestled with someone 10kg heavier than me. He was up against a wall
>He had old man strength, couldn't even trip him, he would wrap his ankle around mine to limit my movement
>Nothing was working, it's incredibly hard to do anything to someone resisting being taken down
>Go for a "high crotch" (learnt from: youtube.com)
>It works!
>Grab leg and put it closer to armpit then drive forward, he falls to the floor
Wow, this makes me realise how gimped and overcomplicated judo is as a grappling art
Wrestling just works.

This will not happen because no sane person would fight 31 years old Aspinall while being 37. Beating Stipe and retireing (almost) undefeated is a way to stay a legend forever, losing to a younger champ is not.

Just finished rereading Teppu and All-Rounder Meguru after remembering a storytime on /a/ 2(?) years ago where some Brazilian dude got me into martial arts. If you browse this board, thank you you bastard, soon I'll be participating in my first competition.
Anyway, I'm looking for more stuff like this, I already read Ippo btw. Also, movies and other media are also cool
🧵 Is wrestling the opposite of bjj?
Anonymous at Tue, 5 Mar 2024 13:21:51 UTC No. 189369
Bjj fighters know submissions but suck at takedowns so they either get sprawled and outpunched or eventually get the takedown and win
Wrestlers know takedowns but suck at submissions so they take someone down, win by decision or suddenly get submitted

🧵 Bjj is better than sambo, catch wrestling, glima, sanda and lethwei

Even taekwondo is better than sambo, catch wrestling, glima, sanda and lethwei
If there's no gym that teaches a martial art anywhere near you, it's not a good martial art for you. There's much higher chance your town has karate, taekwondo, bjj, judo, aikido, boxing, kickboxing, muay thai, krav maga or even slightly obscure things like freestyle or Greco Roman wrestling, kung fu or Filipino martial arts than some local stuff nobody knows outside of the country of origin. A wimpy art you can train is better than a good art you can't train.

Chokes are more obvious, you just squeeze until someone faints. But when to stop arm/leg locking someone? When there's a crack?

Ladder Slide And Woman Die In Ceilandia Brazil
The woman, Sandra de Sousa Marinho, 41 y.o., fell from a ladder during cleaning at a Grade 10 School, in Ceilandia, DF, Brazil, on February 16, did not resist injuries and died February 24, in the saturday morning. She had been admitted to Hospital since the day of the accident.
She was a third-party employee of Royal JG Facilities S/A, which provides cleaning services to the Federal District Education Secretary.
According to the company, the contract does not provide for the performance of services at the height, such as what was done by the victim at the time of the accident.
The company said the stair-cleaning action would have been a request from the school board.
The case was registered at the 15th Police Station as a work accident. Police will investigate the circumstances and the responsibility for what happened.
SEDF mourned her death and said it is providing support to the family and the school.

🧵 pain receptors and extreme sports
Anonymous at Wed, 28 Feb 2024 15:07:40 UTC No. 188733
Are pain receptors necessary for sports, specially extreme sports? I technology and medicine keeps advancing, and humans become able to stop feeling pain or major suffering: would life-risking, martial combat, or endurance\adventure sports become obsolete? Or will they be much more enjoyable? What say you, whats the future of IRL \xs\ at the rate bio-tech and medical enhancements are improving and growing?

Is there any kind of list that has the best Brazilian jujitsu schools in each city?
I’m looking for the best one in Cambridge, Massachusetts outside of Boston where Harvard is.
I recently got assaulted and wants to take Brazilian jujitsu to defend myself. Does anyone know a good Brazilian jujitsu school in the Cambridge Massachusetts area? I lives by Harvard so the closer the better thank you.
