BJJ Dirty Moves and Submissions: How to lose friends at Jiu-Jitsu 

Seriously, just move on, who cares. How casually he explains hurting some random dude, who probably didn’t know any better, is kinda scary.

I agree

Rolling with white or blue belts I’ve let go of subs after holding them at the breaking point when they refuse to tap. Maybe they don’t know they’ll never walk the same… if higher belt is refusing to tap they for sure need to be retired or learn a hard lesson. They’re not helping anyone but their own ego. Same goes for for higher belts rolling with non competitors hitting submissions as quickly as they can leaving no opportunity for a tap before damage happens. The first is a natural consequence the latter would be retaliation

Mother's milk forcing them to motorboat your pecs lol I'm a fan

Sometimes you have Ego before Tap too..goes both ways! Some won’t even let go of subs even if you tap

Like a fist in finish on a triangle when they are defending? I do that a lot but sure if it’s mean

A brown belt at my gym wrist lock me and I couldn’t tap, I just heard my wrist pop … it’s been 3 weeks since I trained because I can’t.

Why? Entirely curious.

I agree. The consequences are just so severe and come so quickly with little warning.

@@coachmiller202 it’s just a silly and weak opportunity imo and I just personally hate it. To my Neanderthal brain that has done like 6 different martial arts, fucking with the weakest complex joints (wrist and ankles) in competition is essentially akin to eye gouging or kicking the balls. Obviously this is fair game in self defense and should be taught, but let’s be honest we are mostly seeing these silly techniques in comp being done just to win medals. Frankly if you have to ban it for amateurs that should already be a sign that it’s a weak move.

@thetajc1329 I agree and understand not having white belts use these. But it is the top way JJ subs happen internationally. I felt the same way 15-20 years ago when it first became popular(effective). But it was a just a necessary change. I was old man "get off my lawn" guy at first. But I didn't understand it would be revolutionized and become the BEST way to submit and win in competition. Why aren't we attacking 50% of the body(legs)? Danaher quote. It is the way JJ is done and it is logical. Like all JJ moves and strategy, learn it. Learn how to defend it first off, then learn how to apply it. That's what I did. I was a slow pressure passing wrestling takedown style. Then when purple belt came leg locks, heel hooks, aoiki locks, became a whole new world do deal with. Got submitted for a year straight(I HATED leg lockers). Until I learned it and turned the tables.

@tomjones6347 the consequences are only severe when you don't know the moves and strategy. Or are not teaching it properly. Leg locks, foot locks, and heels are taught so well now(10P and B Team are probably the best and safest at teaching them) that we need MORE teaching, seminars, and rolling with it to make it even safer.
