Combat VS Sport - Which is Better? | M.A.T. In The Car Podcast [EP. 6]

Why should you train for combat or train for sport? In this podcast episode of Martial Arts Training in the Car or M.A.T. in the car - I share my thoughts on how to train for both, and why train for both. Let me know what you think!

I wanted to say that you scare me. The tomiki and judo techniques I use against people in bjj class wouldn't work against your students. I've used tomiki aikido in sparring against people in muay thai but that's another story. The jujutsu techniques you teach them aren't things you learn in a normal bjj class so they'll recognize the things I would try on them. I'm trying to say that the things you teach them are really really good in a roundabout way. Standing I use wakigatame instead of udegatame. Even though I'm a nidan in aikido I'm not very good at kotegaeshi. I don't know what they call it in your jujutsu school but in my style we call a similar technique udegaeshi. I use udegaeshi instead of kotegaeshi.

I scare you!!?? I'm the nicest dude you'll ever meet... until I'm not lol. I think the reason why we are so successful at our integration of Jujutsu is that we "play". We take the concept and just work it in a variety of different ways so that we believe it what we do. Kote Gaeshi for example is a very, very tough technique and concept to learn in the beginning. But as you drill it over, and over again - in a variety of different scenarios - it can / does become a viable technique.
