Any tips for preparing for a grappling tournament? Still kinda undecided but my gym starts team training this monday and I am being told to quit being a bitch and just do it. I have lost 13 pounds since last monday so I can make 162.5 lbs, I think anything past that and they combine (heavier) weight divisions. Not sure why though, maybe because there aren’t enough participants.
I believe 6-8 weeks from now. It is some random ass production company putting this together, but apparently it is where all the schools/gyms around here meet up to do battle. It is in state, about an hour south of where I live so that is not an issue. Personally I don’t think I am good enough but they are telling me its the only way to up my game to the next level. I believe it because they will try to break me. I would be doing no gi beginner at 162 lbs.
sauna suit+ dry heat room…a grapplers best friend for cutting weight the day before/day of tourny.
i start cutting a month ahead but dont do the final 5-10 til a week before.
The weight shouldnt be an issue. I am already a little under it. We have to weigh in the day of, is that normal? Also, I was reading the rules. I don’t know how I am gonna remember all of them.
local tournies yup.
This was a funny thing to wake up and see this morning. Very loosely related to MMA, I guess.
Ya’ll are lucky. At big tournaments in Japan you have to weigh in on the mat right before the match. They absolutely despise the concept of cutting weight. If you are over the limit it’s an automatic DQ. I’ve got countless “bye rounds” thanks to this. You weigh in, they check your gi and than you shake hands and fight. You dont even have a chance to get a drink of water so if you are dehydrated from a big cut you are SOL.
I dont mind personally since these days Im to lazy to cut. I just compete at my walking weight and see what happens. I have yet to meet a Japanese guy my weight make me feel out powered.
You’re a negro, it’s not likely to happen 
What’s their big issue with weight cuts? I knew they didn’t do it to the same extent as pretty much any other country, but I don’t get what the big deal is. As long as you’re not cheating with drugs and shit, if you put in the work you should be able to benefit from it. Plus if you fuck it up, you suffer big time on fight night.
The televised MMA drought needs to end. 
I finally took part in “team training”, and it was brutal. Somehow I survived with a fucked up leg. Today I get to rest up so that is awesome.
Yeah but it’s been forever. What am I supposed to do with my Saturday nights - play video games? 
:lol:
I don’t want to watch Cody McKenzie vs Yves Edwards. I like both of those fighters, so I don’t want either to lose.
nigga’s gotta eat
