Judo is Intimidating martial art because your going to get thrown a lot ! Usually it is better to start when your a kid , thats why you see most adults and older people in BJJ and not in judo because of that.
absolutely true
No, I love Judo but it's fucking elitarist for an adult amateur.😢
In BJJ there are more spaces for Master competitions and amateurs.
I started judo at 42 and I just turned 47. Once you get over the fear of falling it gets easier.
@@reginaldnand2235 good job!
Hey Hong, awesome videos! Keep up the good work. On the theme of judo for adults, I'd like to see a video about options for people in their 40s who would like to take up recreational judo but whose first priority is avoiding injury at all costs. I mean people who don't care about competition or even belts, but just want to learn some throws. I've heard there are "low-impact" classes for adults which focus on uchikomi, use crash mats, are randori-optional, and spend more time on newaza than the average dojo. Alternately, is it possible to do private judo lessons? Apparently this is much less common than in BJJ. (I'm personally less interested in learning BJJ than judo, so unfortunately BJJ would not be the solution for me). Finally, can you do a video giving us your take on Krav Maga and talking about how much judo there is in KM? Thanks so much! Peace --
Will do, ive made some in the past about how to avoid injuries and how to judo as an older person but i have more and more insight into this the older i get while still training i combat sports, its something ill do till my last breath and the only way thats going to happen is if i keep my body as healthy and strong as possible.
Ill make a video for you about all this, just ask for a private from any judoka, or the coach, hed be happy to. Money is always a good thing.
Krav maga, not many throws from what im seeing, ill make a new vid on it as well.
Why less interested in bjj though?
@@OGFITNESS I've got nothing against BJJ as such, but it just doesn't have the appeal of judo for me. There's something almost magical about being able to throw someone over your hip/shoulder. Also, from what I've read, BJJ has a high probability of causing nagging injuries -- chronic neck or back problems are just the last thing I need in my life. As a guy in his mid-40s whose only judo experience is one semester in college for my PE requirement, it boils down to a choice between Judo Lite and no judo at all. So the idea of recreational classes and/or private lessons is exciting.
I'm 20yo , i'm very fit and i've been doing wresteling drills boxing drills for the last year , and i just like the idea of judo , will i be able to compete ? Like turning 25 and having a black belt is something , so it's worthy a lot besides the belt obv .
Absolutely man, go for it and keep us posted.
What about judo if you're very overweight/obese and starting in your mid 30s? Worth starting or lose weight first then start
Great question, do both at the same time, ill make a vid about it for you, give me more details, weight and height so i can give you tailored advice. Osu!
@@OGFITNESS that is so kind. Okay well I am 35yrs old, 174cm and around 159kg. I never did judo when I was fitter as a young person, I'm still curious about doing it but don't want to injure back or knees. I was thinking either I try to hire a private judoka to teach me separate lessons (judo clubs here it's either teenagers or its very old who have been doing their whole lives) or lose a lot weight first then try.
@@slax4884 Vids gonna be out monday at noon. Osu!
What do you feel about someone in there 40's doing judo but just as a practice, not to complete in competitions?
Cause I'm not sure whether your talking about practice or competition.
Also someone older can just do less sparing in the sessions
I know I'm not the content creator, but go for it if you want to. There are plenty of people who do martial arts without competing.
@@AniWho268 I agree. Iv been doing boxing constantly from my teens and haven't completed for years.
I'm just not sure if the content creator is talking about competition or just practice
@@Fury851 Oh ok. It looks like @StamboulTrain has the same question as you in this comment section, and OG Fitness said he'll do a video on it.
@@AniWho268 I look forward to it
Yo, so what i talked about in the video applies to both, regardless if you decide to compete or not, you absolutely must become excellent break falling, it comes easier of course if you started as a kid, but as an adult it has to be a top priority, now that doesnt mean its gonna take you years, just a few hours of practice in total, 20 hours at most, and thats not all at once.
Absolutely you can judo without competiting, there are pros and cons to competing, but the reason you decide to not compete is very important imho. I will make a videos about that.
Judo is first and foremost a martial art, a sport second, people forget that, it comes from japanese jujutsu, the martial art of the samurai. Sport is sport, life and death, thats a lot deeper. Osu!!!
how much difference does slapping the ground make vs not slapping the ground? does it make a throw feel say 10% less impactful? I feel like with a lot of throws once it is checkmate and you have to let the throw happen, the only thing you can do to make it less damaging is to make sure you don't land with your foot sticking out underneath their falling hip , for example or some other weird position. The avoidable damage seems mostly making sure you land in a conventional position. Other than that you're mostly at the mercy of the guy throwing you and how hard he is throwing you. If he wants to drive you through the floor then how much of the damage and impact can you save yourself from by smacking your arm against the floor as you land? 5%?
Idk I've just started bjj and wrestling a year ago.
the slapping of the ground is really to send that signal to your brain to tighten up and you need to train the tightening up and your chin getting tucked in at the same time to keep you safe. Also slapping the ground with your hand , and feet consciously, stops the rolls, which sometimes is what you want. Depending on the throw, the speed, the power behind it, breaking the fall with hands and feets can make a big big difference and even if its a weak throw ,if you land funny you can still get hurt. And sometimes you can get throw hard and not slap the ground and still be ok if you tighten up on time and kept your chin in, or you did everything wrong and just got lucky to not have been hurt bad, but luck aint a good strategy to rely on, lol, Better to know how to fall correctly so when you do get thrown fast and hard, you can come out of it without any injuries, still will suck but no permanent damage. Does that make sense?
Do not post!
