Official Judo Thread VIII

I think a tiny bit of bleach every once in a while won't kill your gi.

I throw a little bit in with the wash every month or so.

@dyk: Sneaky bastard! I like it. I'm totally stealing that.

How'd you get the two shidos?

I posted in the Heavies.

Literally quoting a guy there can be hazardous to your e-health.

Hit a sick Waki Gatame today in BJJ. Guy passed my guard and locked up a tea bag Kimura, I span out and turned his own grip into Waki Gatame. Thank you based Kano Jigoro.

i turtle/shoot bad shots just to see if people will do the over-the-back-around-the-waist grip and give me the sit-out wakigatame.

it also works well for people trying to turn into side control or kuzure kesagatame, worst case scenario they sniff it out and T-rex like their life depends on it. oh darn, not an easy back take....

Bleach is great. People treat gis like they are a chiffon party dress. Machine washing/drying them, and occasional use of bleach, is perfectly fine.

All white gis have been heavily bleached by the manufacturer anyways, that's why they are white.

Only problem with bleach is that it will fuck with the color of any patches or embroidery.

I should do a video of the push pull set up for tai otoshi, some guys at the club have been asking me to do one.

The push pull works with either O or Ko uchi, same thing applies. They react to maintain balance, reengage, and come forward a bit. The timing is so hard to do in randori though.

For me, I do the ashi waza to get their feet to stand square, or square enough, and use the upper body to get them to bend forward a little when I'm hitting Tai O.

Your body type is what traditional japanese HWs like Muneta and Yamashita are... and I hate sparring with
Turning throws and leg sweeps should be killer.
I do love belt wrestling and pick ups against people, built like brick houses though

Oh, someone was asking about grappling dummies before, so I made small article about them with videos for each different type:

Bleach breaks down the fibres, using it constantly will weaken the fabric.

Ordered one last week but not sure if it has even shipped yet from suples(freestyle dummy). I got the synthetic leather since it was so much cheaper. Do you know how well it will hold up compared to the real leather one?

Sure if you constantly use big doses but a little bleach on occasion does nothing and it is awesome for getting rid of the yellow stain and stench.

i'm a big fan of a half cup each apple cider vinegar, oxyclean, and bleach 1x/monthly

Personally, I prefer leather, but I believe synthetic would hold as long as the leather one.
One advice, don't leave it under direct sunlight. It might damage the surface.

I actually use Oxiclean every wash. My white gi looks brand fucking new.

Wife makes her own powdered detergent, part of it is Oxyclean, no issues with with smell and good bright clean gi...even if it is ragged.

 

[Judo Thai Boxer]

I wash my gi in the blood of my enemies with a sprinkle of BCAA powder for the extra gains.

Rookie.

Everyone knows that the powdered bone of ones arm locked enemies is what really does the trick.

 

[doyourkegles22]

I use a two part mixture.

Oxiclean and souls of my enemies.

Is JBJ at your bar right now, RJ?

 

[Thai Otoshi]

Exactly... Oxiclean.

 

[Zankou]

I think RJ has been snorting Oxiclean and chasing it down with bleach.

Btw I had nose surgery this morning, seems like it went well. Surgeon said it had been broken 4-5 separate times. Couldn't breathe through it for shit. Now I gotta wait a few months and dream of resuming training.
