When i was a beginner, this simple method of using my own legs, helped me develop a better feeling, squeeze, speed & understanding of “on/off” outside of class.
I still do it occasionally when I’m bored since you can feel the squeeze on your leg, you get a pretty good idea what you are doing, when and where the choke gets tighter, what difference a grip variation makes etc etc. Of course this doesn’t replace drilling and practice with a real partner. But it definitely can help a beginner to understand a choke better, do develope speed, to understand the squeeze. Drilling some chokes also made me faster. Whenever you are bored you can do a couple of reps in front of the tv, while warming up on open mat, hell, even when you are taking a bath haha

ADCC 2017 will have some crazy first round and is definitely worth watching.
Aj Agazarm will Fight Nicky Ryan at -66kg. Nicky Ryan will try to make history as youngest competitior in ADCC against almost a Gracie Barra’s Veteran Aj Agazarm who have a lot of strong matches behind him. Gordon Ryan will face Dillon Danis and that’s very interesting because Dillon Danis have a lot of unsettled things with Danaher Death Squad. He lost two times lately to Garry Tonon and this is his time for revenge to DDS.
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu also referred as BJJ is very well known for using technique and leverage instead of brute force so it is not coincidence to see smaller and weaker guys winning against much larger opponents.
The same thing happened here when skinny 16 yr old guy takes on 300 lbs bjj practitioner. They are both skilled and on paper this match should be a big mismatch, but as we can see it’s not., Even a bit more technique is enough to win against much larger and stronger opponent.
In a recent interview with Jiu-Jitsu Mag, Vinny Magalhaes talked about Rickson’s 400-0 fight record. That controversial record is Self Proclaimed by Rickson and is something a lot of people in BJJ deny. Vinny went so far that he even compared it to Renato Laranja’s 27 times world BJJ champion titles. And we all know for sure did not have a single fight for the world title.
“Renato Laranja is a 27 times world champion. I was just 3 years old when he won his first world title. Even though I have just one world title as a black belt. I feel that it means much more than his 27 world titles, because people actually got to see my world title. He’s 27 times world champion but people didn’t see one single match. There’s no footage of that. I would say that its similar to Rickson Gracie’s claim of having 400 fights without one loss. It’s pretty close. Except the numbers are a little bit off. At least Renato doesn’t make up those triple digit numbers (laughs)”
Also, according to Wikipedia Rickson’s father Helio Gracie disputed Rickson’s claim to have had over 400 fights. According to Hélio, Rickson has only competed in fights that are commonly known and reported: the two against Rei Zulu and those that took place in Japan. Helio Gracie alleged that Rickson uses practice and amateur bouts to obtain a number over 400, and that if he counted his fights like Rickson does, he would have in excess of one million.

Even though Renzo Gracie is an idol to the most of BJJ practitioners looks like he misbehaved in his bouts.
In this situation Renzo was clearly frustrated by his opponent Shungo Oyama who used the very specific tactic to defeat Renzo. In all of his frustration Renzo spitted on his opponent in the middle of a fight after a lot of failed take down attempts.
This happened in Pride 22 event and made Renzo’s fans very angry as no one did expect this from Renzo. This wasn’t the first time Renzo took part in some trouble as he had similar misbehaviors earlier in his career too.
This definitely isn’t something that BJJ practitioners are thought to do and definitely not something that Helio Gracie would want anyone in BJJ to do, but at the end of a day, Renzo is just a human being just like all of us and mistakes can happen

BJJ promotes the concept that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend against a bigger, stronger, heavier assailant by using proper technique, leverage, and most notably, taking the fight to the ground, and then applying joint-locks and chokeholds to defeat the opponent. BJJ training can be used for sport grappling tournaments and in self-defense situations. And this is why you never mess with BJJ Girls!
This homeless guy apparently (according to the video audio) grabbed this BJJ girl’s a*s after he broke into her place. Well, he got restrained very quickly by her and her buddies who were all BJJ fighters. What’s the lesson? Don’t harass people, be an upstanding citizen, and learn to fight if you’re living in dangerous areas.
