How many world Ibjjf titles do you have? Or have you won any national or state level championships? I think your video would carry more weight if you listed some credentials besides having a past of doing boxing and karate.

I hate running in bunker gear

Rickson Grace para todo el mundo

took 4 years to get my blue... head coahc always says : never given, earned. just subbed. oss.

And if that person is a colleague who mistreats you continually and you have to work with that person...then what?

Took me 20 years to get my brown belt. Granted I was doing more the the MMA route and no Gi. I'll be our gyms first black belt and we opened in 2011

if I make mistakes in my gym my teacher yells at me and calls me retarded

agree

Takada Noob....

Thanks, this idea helps to remove a bit more the ego from rolling

He speaks the truth!

I have made comments on other RUclips videos that stated, there are way to many black belts. When I was a blue belt 2 stripe I rolled with brown and black belts that could not submit me. In some cases I could submit them. So I bean to question what is a black belt. If he is black and I am blue I can spend 6 more years to be at that sad level.

I totally agree with you. I'm currently in a school that does attendance stripes, and a belt test. I'm coming up to my belt test and honestly, I need more time; I'm sure I'll get through the test but it's still going to be an early promotion. This is my second time starting BJJ and the first time, getting the call over for my first stripe randomly felt fantastic and it really is a bit of a letdown to just get them via attendance. I think I know why schools are doing it, same reason you're discussing, people want to feel like they're making progress and so maybe for white belt you give the first two stripes off of attendance to give someone that mental encouragement for acknowledging that they've showed up, but after that I think you need to drop it. Absolutely some schools go to far with subjective stripe and belt criteria, so I think when it comes to belts, you should have objective criteria, and not just a test which you can train for, but something a little more holistic. I'll be a blue belt soon, but it's not going to feel the way I want it to feel. Despite this, my school/academy is one of the best in the region and I will get better, but if I'm being honest, I'm probably a 2.5 or 3 stripe white belt, not 4. Not Yet.

The first picture really hit home a training partner spazzing to try and escape from side control and then another neck cranking ruined my discs. Had to get surgery. It sucks!!

youtube is spying on me.. :). I just got home from BJJ noon class, 50 years old beat up sore ribs.

I did jiu jutsu for a while in my youth. I was thinking oh one day it'll come in handy if I'm trying to defend myself. 10 years went by. Never had to use. But I was going twice a week damaging my body to some level almost everytime- Is it enjoyable really? To grapple with smelly sweaty dudes? Really? Gross bruh. If you need self defense learn to use a weapon and keep it by you. A gun will beat a mma fighter 99% of the time. Other than that learn to deescalate aggressive situation. Get ripped and strong. Learn the basics of fighting/self defense and leave it at that' don't get into going every week for a pointless MMA training. Waste of time.

Who needed a full-body cast from a BJJ injury? Did their opponent break both of their arms and legs? 😆

5:30 is the reason a lot of people check out of BJJ. With how difficult life is getting, it seems like a hobby for the privileged who can afford to get injured. One major injury turns your entire life upside down for the better part of a year and it's never the same. If you have kids to take care of, training striking or boxing seems like a much safer and practical hobby 😅

Thanks for the advice and information! Let’s Go! #TKA

Thank You for the great information. 😇🙏

100 percent agree with you

Millions and millions of people are outraged and condemning and boycotting the Olympics now! I would hate to think what the ending ceremony will be like if it’s just as demonic as the opening ceremony, but it should be condemned and boycotted. A biological male xy bone structure, muscle density, faster muscle twitch/reflex, etc… I agree, no matter how much female hormones he would’ve taken he will still be stronger and faster. She knew from the first punch it was vastly different than a biological female and he could possibly kill her, so she rightfully immediately stopped the fight. My heart breaks for her! I pray GOD blesses her and any other female who was forced to compete against a biological male in this many fold. Imo any biological male competing against a biological female in any physical event is the epitome of COWARD and it should be outlawed. Real men fight men. You’re right, if they are going to allow “trans” athletes then they should have their own category and compete trans male to trans male OR trans female to trans female. Good video! Peace ❤

I just wanna know how anyone can be okay with this. How are some people okay with having trans people compete against the gender they’re pretending to be?

Thank you for the informational advice. 👍 #TonyTKA

Grande mestre 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Rickson looks big here ! He must have got weight to fight Takada.

Rickson did not look that good here he could not take this guy down and the only reason he got mount was because Takada tried a foot lock I do not think he would be able to compete against the top guys even back then.

Oooohraaaaa

神様ゴッチの技術なぞ、何の役にも立たなかったな

Not harsh words at all; it's true most people forget the reason they started Jiu Jitsu, start belt chasing, and start watching others progress instead of their own, but BJJ has a way of humbling people and bringing them Back down to earth, the mats don't lie.

Awesome video, Kieth, and great insight into the ins and outs and many different systems of grading depending on schools, the individual, skill, and level. The way you break things down is very detailed, as I imagine your Jiujitsu is keeping the videos coming.

A black belt is a white belt that never quit, but they used their time on the mats to fail, adjust, and fail again until they figured it out.

Real Jiu-Jitsu is refreshing to watch.

I legit had a discussion with my head instructor last night to make sure I never get a promotion based on showing up. When I get my brown belt I want it to be because I feel, roll and act like a brown belt.

Ryron & Rener Gracie actually test for belts now. The black belt test is 2 days long, 5 hours each day.

And finished with a similar bar after He weakened that arm with heel kicks, excellent Warrior!

Rickson will win the current UFC heavyweight champion.

Nothing happens til 4:30

Good advice from someone that knew leglocks LONG before they were cool!!! In my experience, I've concluded that combining leglocks with passing makes it easier to do one or the other.

Great video that all beginners should watch since fancy low percentage social media moves are a big problem now, lol! I usually don't put much faith & training time into moves that I've never seen work in competition.

Thanks for sharing. Valuable advice 👍

Great advice!!! New people definitely underestimate the importance diaphragmatic breathing. You'll literally be using it all the time.

With some of the comments and replies, I must of been speaking another language. Or people didn't watch the video in it's entirety before commenting, Or the understanding of the content of the video went completely over some people's head. SMH FML

However given that said I totally disagree with just about everyone on the Internet or Tub disregarding the importance of kata forms in Judo are karate kung fu or you name the discipline. It preserves the information and techniques from the discipline it may be? Even if you don't train and compete or fight and really grasp the practical someone can preserve the theoretical to always go back to.

Think about it why are all amateur and professional boxing gyms in the hood or in the barrio's? Or even that why doesn't everybody try freestyle wrestling in school even though it's free? Because you pay in sweat and blood to learn those disciplines and humility to say the least. No one is going to pay to go get a bloody nose every day or face grounded into the mat!

Unfortunately it's all about money the majority of people quit because it is rough to be getting smashed. That's why people quit. But it's tough to keep a Dojo open with so much turn over in students.

Preach, brother! Preach!

Rickson Grace one of the greatest .

It's really unfortunate what happened to Karate. It's foundation was Okinawan wrestling (called Tegumi) with striking added later, but then when it went to Japan, the Japanese only focused on the striking (because they already had Judo, Sumo, etc) and changed the range from the original grappling clinch range to farther out, and they jettisoned the grappling, so now no one knows what all those "funky" moves in kata are for. And it's the Japanese version that got exported around the world, and even backwards influenced how karate is done even on Okinawa in some of the schools. Originally, every young kid came to karate already knowing at least basic Tegumi, which was stand up grappling like Sumo, or Judo without the groundwork, so the striking was added after to complete it.
