do u guys believe that before you start a match you should be in the f*** u mind set and wanna kill ur opponent?
i was to "nice" 2 weeks ago and lost! went for sweep and didnt let the guy crash into juddges . guy elbowed my nose and mouth.
I treat it like a roll in class.
Thats different. Thats "how do you behave during the match". The question is about your mindset going into a match. Unless I misread the OP.
u are correct. i mean before a match what should i be thinkingThats different. Thats "how do you behave during the match". The question is about your mindset going into a match. Unless I misread the OP.
Really? That's interesting, man. Could you elaborate?
My first competition is coming up soon, and I wann go in there friendly, smiling, ready to roll hard, but I was also thinking I'm gonna have to be a bit meaner. Rolling, I don't cross face too hard, and I rarely dig elbows in or anything like that, but in a competition I assume that's par for the course-- things like the "rape" choke (can someone please give me a better name for that, really?), butterknife choke, etc.-- things I don't ordinarily do in rolling, I feel like those are definite.
Also, if I throw or sweep someone real hard, or they give some indication of an unusually painful thing occuring, I check and see if they're okay.
Yeah, me too. I'm not doing to great, though, and I actually ment too turn it up a little, I just never seem to do so.I treat it like a roll in class.
My advice (might not work for everyone) is to go into matches relaxed and ready to have fun. But once you slap hands and the match begins, don't hold back. Use any technique that is legal. The guy across from you will try to break your arm in a heartbeat if you let him.
