    They would not believe some of the blood soaked Judogi times either. My most fun days were on Okinawa with some of the crew at the Police dojo in Naha and trying to keep my bones intact. That was...

    Cady, I think you got it. :D I have been away for many years but still in contact with a few Judo friends that are still alive, and they laugh when I ask about BJJ. They seem to not know or...
  3. Guess this is not a subject worthy of discussion....

    Guess this is not a subject worthy of discussion. Some so-called Nidan in BJJ (amateur WWE Wrestling) on another forum attempted to correct my description of Hadaka jime. Hum, guess I'm not versed...

    I should start another thread, but even though this is old here it will be for my discussion of the so-called “deadly choke hold” by Daniel Penny. After watching the entire unedited ~5 minute video...

    While opining to my wife about trying to learn Hane Goshi, back in the day, I told her of that philosophy. At first I thought my technique was correct until our new sensei would always flip me over...

    Many Moons ago when discussing learning techniques I had been taught in some college courses about the psychology related to sports. I found a most interesting web site (my summary from "A Taxonomy...

    I actually relearned Hane Goshi watching YouTube videos. :) Not sure why for the past 63 years I have been hung up on that technique. :) Only in my dreams since I stopped practicing many Moons ago.
  8. Heck, I can barely spell "OGoshi." :)

    This is my workouts these days:

    11188

    I have up Martial Arts for astrono9my, then turned 82 and just try to get off my easy chair. :laugh:

    You are most likely right. Wishful thinking on my part.
  11. I wonder how some of these players would benefit...

    I wonder how some of these players would benefit from training under an actual Martial Arts instructor? Give their interest and experience in faking it, they may do well practicing the real stuff.
  12. The guys I learned from were holdovers from the...

    The guys I learned from were holdovers from the originals, before WWII killed many off. They taught the old stuff, before commercial art caught up with them. Our friend and Judo sensei, Miyazato,...

    I applaud anyone who participates in such an activity, but I wonder if it would be better to train under an actual Martian Arts teacher. I see lots of so-called Judo-like stuff that belongs more so...

    Correct Cady. It is entertainment but not real. I wonder if anyone of them has ever had a minute if training. But, it beats "woke" stuff.

    I vaguely remember how exhausted and sweaty we were after practicing for many hours going out to eat and it was like feeding the hogs. After so many years of taking in too many calories and carbs it...
  16. Well, that is great to do. After all the diets...

    Well, that is great to do. After all the diets over my years I learned that none of them resulted in permanent weigh loss, but I usually gained all the losses back plus some. Back before retiring I...

    My Judo days ended 34 years ago after practicing it for 37 years. I miss it and wish it never ended, but my body is happy I did. Along with Judo I practiced several forms of karate and loved that...

    Wow, Roald Charles of USJA called me today out of the blue needing information on old AFJA/USJA on-line news magazines, American Judo, and to just touch bases. We talked for an hour and it was great...

    While I was still not quite 50 when my last Judo workout I felt my skills were lacking and the politics in my area was so bad it just got to me. Rick Mertens was visiting my wife and me, plus I...

    At 81 with replaced knees and bad hips and other old age stuff; no, ain't going to come back. I doubt my Ogoshi would even work :) Hum, maybe deashi barai. I really got burned out teaching because...

    Yeah, much has been affected by the Wuhan bio weapon. Anyway, even though I stopped practicing Judo years ago my thinking about those days is every day. We had a lot of fun.

    I was being kind of witty, so to speak. Being the last Judo I did was in 1989, or 32 years ago; when I practiced for 37 years prior to then, it was a thought or dream and I just had to express it...

    Is Judo Dead?

    This site is as dead as a door nail. Why not shit can it? Maybe Judo is back in an era when I started in 1952; a little known mysterious magic art when no one did. All I see now days is thugs...
