**ESB: Lynchburg's let's talk about BJJ Thread

favourite players are maia, saulo and bj penn . but am particularly inspired by maia and rickson.
im a two stripe purple belt (rather undeserved i feel) my lineage is from royler gracie but recently switched to gracie barra after our instructor left.
biggest names ive trained with are probably royler and bruno alves.

 

Sounds like what we call the sneaky **** choke, one of my favourites.

I've been training bjj for a little over 6 years now, I'm a blue belt (I'd most likely be a purple under almost any other coach, but my coach has exceptionally high standards, which I quite like).

I haven't trained that much over the last 6-8 months due to time/money/injury type issues, but I would like to get my purple belt before I turn 30.

Posting from my phone so I'll post more when I get home tonight.

 

**** choke best submission all day

Man I love Jiu Jitsu probably just as much as any other sport. I'm a blue under Marcos Nardini. I don't get to train very often like 1x per week because of Uni.

My favorite BJJ fighters are Rafa/Gui Mendes and Marcelo. Roger and Rodolfo are good to watch also if just to see the inevitability of the ass whooping.

 

Well done Lynchy!

Been more stand up lately due to injury.

My fave is knee grinds to a pinned leg to get bottom fighters to turn and open for a quick move to a traditional or modified scarf choke. Great for gi but hard when slippery in no gi.

Iv recently started training under Steve Campbell (great trainer) been training about 2 years on and off due to trying to find the right gym, love watching maia, Pablo popovitch and the Medez bros not really trained with any1 well known but dave minto from are gym just won the euro masters in Lisbon at blue belt!

Top thread linch!

 

I'll be starting in the next few weeks. The instructor is a purple belt, but he gets Victor Estima in a fair bit and it's more of an MMA school. Should be fun.

There is another guy in town who's a black belt under Roger Gracie. But I still don't know if I'll enjoy training yet, so looking forward to just rolling and seeing how I get on. Would like to do judo but the school is miles away.

 

here is my instructor one of if not the best in the country he lost to the best Irish BJJ guy in a match but only went to the place to make friends and was roped into the match, he was in no condition to be fighting, the irish guy wont rematch him now

here he is in the irish open, santos in blue
