			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>New Question: Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in Amateur Mixed Martial Arts?</h3>
On average, the amateur mma fighter who practices bjj for his grappling skills, what belt level, or how many years of bjj experience does he have before fighting as a amateur?
<span id="more-905"></span>
<h3>Answer by Matt from: MartialFighter.com</h3>
Typically amatuer fighters have about 1-2 years of MMA training before they enter the cage.  If they are training pure MMA, they really don't train Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, they are training submission grappling for MMA.  They do not wear the gi and focus on MMA grappling.

That being said, most of these fighters have about a solid blue belt level or an advanced white belt level of grappling knowledge.  But their skills are enhanced for MMA.  Personally, I think a solid blue belt level and above will provide you the necessary grappling skills to fight in an amateur MMA fight

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>New Question: is ninjitsu a good self defense?</h3>
<span id="more-917"></span>
<h3>Answer by Matt from: MartialFighter.com</h3>
Any martial art can be good for self-defense if taught and trained properly.  But, Ninjutus is actually a very solid martial art for self-defense if taught in a combat manner.  Ninjutsu is very similar to Japanese Jujutsu or Aiki-Jutsu with the inclusion of weapons training and defense.  The weapons training and defense can help you improve your ability to use weapons of opportunity as well as increase your ability to defend against them.  Ninjutsu also teaches solid takedowns and throws along with joint locks and controlling techniques.  Some modern or refined styles of Ninjutsu also include ground work.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of my favorite fighters is <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&#038;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fs%3Fie%3DUTF8%26search-alias%3Ddvd%26ref%3Ddp_dvd%255Fbl%255Fact%26field-keywords%3DAntonio%2520Rodrigo%2520Nogueira&#038;tag=fighauthority-20&#038;linkCode=ur2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325">Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira</a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=fighauthority-20&#038;l=ur2&#038;o=1" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" /> &#8211; the man is a legend in the Mixed Martial Arts world and is mostly noted for his ground fighting ability, particularly his guard.  As you know, the guard is one of the most important and common positions in MMA, grappling, and in a street fight ground situation.  Nogueria is one of the BEST at defending from this position and capitalizing on this position.</p>
<p><span id="more-901"></span></p>
<p>In my personal pursuit of improving my guard, I wanted to focus  not only my grappling guard, but guard for my  MMA fight(s), and also solid self-defense tactics and principles. Yes, MMA is not self-defense, but the techniques and principles of dealing with an aggressive opponent are fairly similar. </p>
<p>During my research I came across a book by Nogueira called: <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&#038;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FMastering-Mixed-Martial-Arts-Guard%2Fdp%2F0981504426%3Fie%3DUTF8%26s%3Dbooks%26qid%3D1258058365%26sr%3D1-1&#038;tag=fighauthority-20&#038;linkCode=ur2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325">Mastering Mixed Martial Arts: The Guard </a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=fighauthority-20&#038;l=ur2&#038;o=1" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" /></p>
<p>This book instantly became one of my favorite Guard and Half Guard books. I was instantly able to apply the ideas I learned from this book onto the mat&#8230; seriously, NO BS. It helped me fall head over heals in love with Half Guard. There were a variety of great defense and attacking positions. The book was laid out clearly and organized by the type of guard position you are in. What is still great about this book is the fact that I still go back and reference it on a regular basis. There truly was a wealth of information that really helped my game. </p>
<p>Soon after Nogueira released a DVD series on <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001VEHOPI?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=fighauthority-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B001VEHOPI">Guard for MMA</a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=fighauthority-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B001VEHOPI" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" /> and <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001VEHOPS?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=fighauthority-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B001VEHOPS">Half Guard for MMA</a></p>

</ul>
<p>At first I thought I was just purchasing the video version of the book and I partly did. There were definitely cross over techniques, but if a picture is worth 1000 words, those videos were worth 100,000. I able to pick up on some smaller details of the previous techniques I had been working on. Lastly, there was also more techniques and variations that were not included in the book. Also, you really need to check out the rolling session between the two Nogueira brothers &#8211; awesome! </p>
<p>I&#8217;m not trying to say these video series or book &quot;Changed my life&quot; &#8211; I&#8217;m just saying that they really helped open my eyes to the Guard, Half Guard and utilizing it effectively in all fight situations. </p>
<p>Have a good one!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What I thought was just a boring, low scoring sport, may actually be a lot rougher then I thought.  Check this video out of one<a href="http://www.martialfighter.com/fight-videos/soccer-girl-punches-and-hair-pulling-takedowns.html"> Soccer Girl: Elizabeth Lambert giving hard punches and hair-pulling takedowns</a>.  Article from <a href="http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2009/11/10/crimesider/entry5601480.shtml" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">CBS</a><br />
<span id="more-898"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>Story contributed by 48 Hours Mystery special consultant Paul Ciolino.</p>
<p>NEW YORK (CBS) The Elizabeth Lambert video, which is making the rounds, is a fascinating inside look at Woman’s Division One Soccer. I’m not sure that if this were Division One men’s soccer anyone would be making a fuss. Because we have an attractive and I might add aggressive female player this has become a phenomenon.</p>
<p>First and foremost soccer is a very physical sport that is played aggressively. The type of behavior that is on display in the Lambert video is as old as the game itself. For those of you who doubt this take a look at the France-Italy World Cup Final from a few years ago.</p>
<p>Pushing, shoving, punching, and tripping are routine in high-end matches. The older and more skilled the players the more physical it gets. Division One soccer is a tough place, be it men&#8217;s or women’s division. The faint of heart do not play here.</p>
<p>But I digress. I like Elizabeth. Hell, if I were in a bar fight I would choose Elizabeth over some of my male pals.</p>
<p>In both instances of the video where she gives one player a shot in the back and decks the second one by snatching a hand full of ponytail and slamming her to the ground, she was adequately provoked. Both of her acts were in reaction to two dirty cheap shots she received.</p>
<p>In the first case she is standing behind a player who shoots an elbow right into the center of her chest. This hardly makes you an innocent bystander &#8212; you hit an adult female in the chest with a sharp elbow you should get a smack. Let&#8217;s call this one a tie, no blood was drawn.</p>
<p>The second incident is a little slicker. Number 21 from Brigham Young is standing in front of Elizabeth and looking pretty innocent. She is smiling and pushing up against Elizabeth. The next thing you know is BAM, she gets thrown to the ground by her hair. Elizabeth basically snatches her right off of her feet and body slams her. Poor thing.</p>
<p>Well poor thing as it turns out is not entirely a victim. Watch the tape carefully. Old number 21 is backing up against Elizabeth and while she is doing this she is grabbing Elizabeth’s crotch. This is when poor thing gets slammed to the ground. In most states if you were on the street or in a bar and you grabbed a woman by the crotch like this, you’d be charged with criminal sexual assault.</p>
<p>Instead in this world of political correctness the lynch mobs are out to ruin Elizabeth Lambert’s athletic career. Give me a break. Everything she did was a direct result of being elbowed, grabbed, and molested. What was she do? Call time and complain? Quit? Cry? Where were the refs when Elizabeth was getting banged about the pitch?</p>
<p>Here’s what I think. The next soccer player that decides to cheap shot Elizabeth will give it serious consideration before doing so. Number two, if I were drafting for a professional team Elizabeth Lambert might be my first pick in that draft. You go girl.</p></blockquote>
<p>I don&#8217;t know whether to hate her or ask her to marry me?  Regardless I love watching hot girls beat each other up!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Check this <a href="http://www.martialfighter.com/combat-martial-arts/man-attacked-with-bottle-on-subway.html">video</a> out &#8211; these two guys are alone on the subway.  One &#8220;punk&#8221; looking kid is walking around acting strange with a bottle in his hand.  Instantly, my radar has gone up.  &#8220;Why is he holding the bottle like that?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Where is his shirt?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Why does he look so nervous&#8221;<br />
and lastly &#8220;Why did I sit down?&#8221;  </p>
<p>Personally, sitting down would have never been an option.  As far as I&#8217;m concerned that opened up the door.  Look at the way he is holding the bottle, it is being held like a weapon!</p>
<p>The victim&#8217;s instinct must be telling him that something is off &#8211; why isn&#8217;t he listening to it?  I feel bad for the dude, but people need to listen to their instinct. You know his radar is going off, but he choose to sit down, almost as a way to relax himself?  Wrong move.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I read so much different stuff about strength trainng for martial arts that I am quit confused about it.<br />
I am a 49 years old male and practice all kinds off martial arts since the age off 15. Right now I try to focus on street fighting.<br />
Monday evening I teach adults and try to teach them the thinks that I think will work in a street fight.<br />
My base is JKD.<br />
True all the years I never have payed much attention to strrngth training but true Internet I know its important.<br />
I have a full time job,a family and try to train mma 2-3 times a week.<br />
It would be okay to trow in some strength training but not for 1 hour or one and a half hour.<br />
Sometimes I read that high reps is better for mma but then I read that the 3 exercises, bench-press, squat and deadlift, would be more better for 3-5 sets off 3-5 reps.<br />
I train at home so I cant do any pulley stuff or leg curls or something like that.<br />
Do you guys maybe have suggestions on what I can do?<br />
And can I after weight training do a running for example (otherwise you have to take for that 2-3 days out to).<br />
Hope someone can help.<br />
Sorry for my bad English, I am from Holland.<br />
Take care.</p>
