Better Judo

Forget about static Uchi Komi. This is how you should train: flow training.

Pretty sure Smetov practiced turnouts quite a bit. Do our American players practice turnouts, or are they stuck in the "take a fall" philosophy?

This is my favorite combination: O soto to Ko soto. Requires a strong angle of attack with a straight driving leg. This combination was a required skill for my orange to green belt kids.

Great story about doing the right thing. As a coach, I've had to intervene many times to make sure the right player won the match. My players have had wins given to them because of wrong scores on the board, and the opposing coach not paying attention to the scoreboard. Sadly, I know many coaches would just ignore the injustice. What would you do?

Remember this Kenyan runner Abel Mutai who was just a few feet from the finish line, but became confused with the signage and stopped, thinking he had completed the race. A Spanish runner, Ivan Fernandez, was right behind him and, realizing what was happening, started shouting at the Kenyan to continue running. Mutai didn't know Spanish and didn't understand. Realizing what was taking place, Fernandez pushed Mutai to victory.
A journalist asked Ivan, "Why did you do that?" Ivan replied, "My dream is that someday we can have a kind of community life where we push and help each other to win."
The journalist insisted "But why did you let the Kenyan win?" Ivan replied, "I didn't let him win, he was going to win. The race was his." The journalist insisted, and again asked, "But you could have won!" Ivan looked at him and replied, "But what would be the merit of my victory? What would be the honor in that medal?
What would my Mother think of that?"
Values are passed on from generation to generation.
What values are we teaching our children?
Let us not teach our kids the wrong ways and means to WIN.
Instead, let us pass on the beauty and humanity of a helping hand. Because honesty and ethics are WINNING!

Coaches, are you strength training your athletes? If yes, to what extent? Here are interesting data on world class, female Chinese wrestlers.

Keep it simple!

Note: the "clean" exercise was technically terrible. If you're going to use Olympic lifts, focus on proper technique, not weight.
