Ok so I was rolling last night and anded up in lockdown. The guy on top twisted and semi stood up and before I had the chance to release it my right knee popped about 3 times.

It didnt hurt that bad but last night when I was walking around it was starting to get really stiff.

This morning my knee is quite stiff but there is no swelling and I can walk fine. I dont have a doctor to go to here but what do yall think. If there is no swelling and I can walk/jog, nothing is torn right?

The pain that I do have is when im standing up and I try to lock my knee up it hurts. The pain isnt actually on or under the knee cap, but about 2.5 inches down and to the right (this is my right knee btw)
 
sad problem is that i dont actually have anywhere i can go to get an MRI.
 
Thats what you get for using the lockdown.

I know 3 guys who have popped their knee due to the lockdown. I dont use it, and when people use it on me i just stall and sit all my weight on them. They cant do anything witht he lockdown unless they rock me up, and they cant rock me up unless i lift my weight up.

Not worthing fighting out of just to pop my knee. Ill tryto get their foot off and then walk my foot close to their butt. Taking the lockdown out of the game.

But honestly man if your going to use potentialy risky moves, your going to get injured sooner or later. The lockdown is injury prone per say, but the movent that goes on after its on is. Either youll injure the otheer guys knee or he is going to injure yours. Thats why they outlawed it in judo.

Yikes! Sounds like the Indian Death Lock!!!
 
yea looks like i wont be using lockdown anymore. you can still do almost everyone of his sweeps without lockdown anyways.

and plus, if it actually was the best form of halfguard, everyone would use it. I have yet to see anyone but eddie use it in competition.......
