Welcome.



exercise scientist Whats that then? (excuse the ignorance. I just wanted to know what you do)

LOL at the grappling, in particular the Kimura(s), Knee-Bar, Omoplata, 'slamming' (dangerous) and the neck-crank right at the end (looked like some variation on the Can-Opener - which is banned in most comps, unless using to open opponents guard and then you must release the head immediately. It is considered dangerous by most of the BJJ / grappling community when used as a sub technique). He must be or must have been a good mate!!

Self-taught? ;)

exercise scientist works with athletes and like, taking blood samples, reading data etc.

nah, not self taught just very sloppy :D and tired, that video is nearly 2 years old. My game is far tidier now.

Leaning more towards submission wrestling so tech's that would be banned in BJJ appear. My grappling partner in that vid has a sambo back ground so we normally agree before hand whats legal and what isn't, i could only pull more dangerous stuff with him.

I would never slam/crank anyone who i did'nt have a good grappling relationship with if that makes sense.
