Good post for us that are new to leg lock and the sort. Keep 'the good reads' coming. Phone Post

Yeah, I teach leg locks regardless of whether or not they are legal in tournaments. You shouldn't let the rules of a tournament completely dictate your training unless you are on a quest to be the best within that set of rules. Plus, rules change.

I never understood the 'wait until purple belt' theory, crazy you would wait so long to learn and defend subs for half your body, it puts guys so far behind and they are always playing catch up with guys who have done all a long

the leg lock is important but i feel like faggot when i finish fight with one
