How to beat the stiff arm in Judo

please like share and subscribe.
How to beat at stiff arm opponent in judo. A few methods laid out here. Positional improvements, creating angles, and using sode.
RvR or LvL (Ai Yotsu)
1. Cut the hand, wait for the hand to come back for the lapel and give a little resistance. Then go for sode tsurikomi goshi as he comes up. Stand at an angle and attack the far leg.
2. Go around, to force his arm to do a pec fly. Close the distance and attack ko uchi or other footsweeps.
3. Slip the wrist to the side and go up for sode.
Use these three together to make them even more effective. Sometimes, if there is a threat of the sode, a stiff-arming opponent will release the stiff arm.

[@jodylowe8476]

I don't do judo, but BJJ. Your teaching style connects with me very well.

[@vasiliosf2091]

This is great! Just started out about 3 months ago. I'm 6'4" and have a guy in my class who's roughly the same height but way more muscular that's generally my partner. He tends to stiff arm and will occasionally drop his hips so I'm always looking for good counters. I'll be trying some of these out! Thank you!

[@konstantinos-antoniosbme-m6472]

Very very useful! Thank you for3 sharing!

[@urahara264]

[@Agtren]

I am just a newbie in judo, but I'll try these tips out in randori. Thank you, Sir.

[@bojin9469]

Shintaro thank you for these gold gems!

[@Shigashi84]

[@jeremydistinguin2838]

Thank you very much. Very interesting and useful. Gonna try all that

[@ForzaTerra89]

Love these videos

[@seymourskinner5968]

Thanks, my skills are good, however, because of this people don’t let me near them and this is working like a charm.

[@briandaly123]

Great Video!!!

[@wheelerfrank89]

Great video!

[@UU-ry6gt]

Beautiful!

[@pablorisco1863]

great class man!

[@OGFITNESS]

That was great. Osu!🙏🙇‍♂️

[@nicocontreras5366]

Awesome, I am not much a sode guy and my small hands makes hard sometimes to grip the sleeve but the side movement is pretty cool, force sode doesn´t work with those ultra rigid guys.

[@Shigashi84]

Agreed. Sode is difficult. I got small hands too.

[@brandonessick775]

Awesome.

[@leticiadantas9079]

Thank you very much!! Your videos help a lot, the explanations are great

[@Shigashi84]

You are very welcome.

[@Janisurai]

Beautiful

[@theholyroller7657]

Great options . I’ll work this in our class tomorrow

[@Shigashi84]

Awesome. Let me know how it goes.

[@ginjinmishima4773]

You are so. Great Thx

[@therandomnomad435]

Good day, Sensei! I have seen a lot of your videos and you helped me a lot. But still, I do find trouble with guys heavier than me. I mean, I am able to deal with guys my weight but taller than me(theres a variety of things I could, however I must take care of leg sweeps though). But if the guy is heavier, I do fine some trouble. Can you make a video involving few tricks for that?

[@mikekassai]

Good stuff

[@StudSupreme]

the techniques I enjoy seeing the most are the no-gi.

[@khadijahjoysams6172]

Ty❤

[@IpponQing]

Sensei Higashi, can you do a video on finishing sode? It's one of the throws I have difficulty finishing, as my power hand isn't directing the throw anymore.

[@adamislam4823]

Love frome egypt

[@davidc9441]

So I last did judo when I was 22, (green belt) am now 50 but this soo makes me want to take it up again. Looks such fun.

[@marksoberay2318]

Great videos bud...special request here how about defending against the high collar back of the neck grip? Can u make a vid? Thx!

[@Shigashi84]

Got it. It is on my list brotha.

[@StillRolling]

No don't teach anyone to defend that grip haha. I'm 6'3 it's my favorite 🤙

[@Shigashi84]

@@StillRolling hahaha, You want to jump up to make yourself 6'4,. That is the key.

[@AdamT-88]

Thank you I will try this next time. I find white belts will often just use strength and dead arm, its very frustrating to deal with.

[@Papa91echo]

Useful in BJJ

[@cyruskhalvati]

One hand on the elbow one hand on the wrist, your gonna overpower him, though it would give up control of his other arm. A much safer alternative for push his hand against your chest and push the elbow in. Works just like a knee buckle at that point (caving knee from back with a gentle nudge). Should always work in same weight class, but not gonna guarantee overpowering someone above your weight class. the first methood should work fighting up 30 to 50lb, but its insanely risky.

[@fyildirim00]

In turkey we say to guys like you "adamsin" and i think thats beautiful

[@joequillun7790]

I realize this is Judo training, but stiff arm or not, there are some great Jujitsu, and Aikido techniques to combat these types of lapel grabs. (Ikkyo, sankyo, ect.) Still love these videos, and thanks for sharing.

[@dboyzero]

do these work when the opponent is dropping their hips as well? I find a lot of folks stiff arm me out and drop their weight at the same time, making it hard to find any entry in at all.

[@Shigashi84]

This standing sode wouldnt work when the opponent has dropped their hips. You can do a drop sode. But more so than that, i would do different set ups. Will post a hips back tutorial for you. A lot of people have been asking for it.

[@dboyzero]

@@Shigashi84 That sounds great, thank you!

[@sran9492]

I would do a ko-uchi-gari so i break their ballance so they would stand up a little bit to bring ballance back and i would do o-soto-gari for example

[@JudoP_slinging]

If they shove their hips out backwards you can get high collar grip and crush their posture forwards, usually they will try to stand up which gives a nice entry for uchimata etc. Otherwise you can sometimes drag them into newaza or get easy over the back grips for sumi-gaeshi etc. In contest they will get penalised for very defensive play also. If they are simply dropping their hips then attack rearwards with ouchi or kouchi, this is why these throws combine so well with forwards hip throws.

[@djharto4917]

What to do when the stiff arming opponent keeps his stiff posture but bends his knees? I used to do tomo nage but people have got wise to me

[@user-xe5by1dc6v]

Классно!!! жаль на русский нет перевода хотя и так многое понятно

[@skyrimkillereh]

At around 1:27 in the video I don't recognize the move, what's it go? "Go sorei? Oh sorei?" I don't know what it's called.

[@CyrowsResistance]

skyrimkillereh Sode Tsurikomi Goshi

[@whatthefob4191]

How do you approach the stiff arm of a left handed grip for a right hand players? Similar concepts?

[@Shigashi84]

[@Shigashi84]

Hope this helps.

[@SV-bo8yn]

Pull the dominant right arm toward you -as in a jerking motion- with your left hand, then push while stepping in deep with your left foot. Adjust your right foot too. Look up Abe Hifumi's sode's versus left handed opponents!

[@chadechevalric686]

Really nice techniques, it's annoying when practicing randori and all you got is someone with stiff arms and legs.

[@fsmewvrc5841]

The arm isn’t really a problem for me for me it’s stiff legs when I go to sweep or throw them I have no idea how to counter it I tried catching them off guard I’ve tried throwing but it still doesn’t seem to work

[@maceyrickard6836]

I think you did it with your pet fly thing I generally just a little roll of the shoulder

[@HeartistMurali]

Real life fights are very different because your opponent would have the emotion and ego.

[@simtoolkit2427]

Reminder to self 0:50 1:50

[@robertocalvo934]

I don't think the first option will work against a much stronger oponent, the second seems to be more accessible

[@richardcorke3137]

How about an elbow lock vs. the stiff arm?

[@Shigashi84]

In Japanese JJ, for sure!

[@alLEDP]

The Peckfly thing only works if your legs are long enough lol
