Kyokushin Karate has this extreme test known as the 100-man kumite, where the person has to spar 100 people (all black belts) for two minutes each. There is this really awesome video of Judd Reid completing the challenge. I was wondering if Judo has an equivalent test. Since Judo is all about efficiency, being able to efficiently beat 100 opponents would be quite a sight. submitted by /u/Blakath [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hello. My daughter will be going to college at Temple University in Philadelphia next year. I have some family out there too.

I got injured recently so I started binge watching JudoTV - the matches of the top 10-20 players in most weight classes. It was… bad. Despite the IJF’s attempts since the Olympic removal scare of 2012 to increase viewership (including banning leg grabs) judo remains an incredibly painful sport to watch. A lot of matches see constant, sometimes minutes-long delays from coaches contesting decisions and forcing refs to review footage. Others are constantly delayed when one player gets tired and takes his time putting his gi back together. These are both simple, though not easy, fixes. Removing t ..read more

So I train at the gym that is in my apartment. The gym does not have a squat rack. It has dumbbells, cable station, Smith machine, free bar and some plates. My upper body session have been great so far and have given me good results. But I'm struggling with lower body which is the most important in Judo. As my primary strength movement I used dumbbell front squats (dumbbells held above my shoulders). However it doesn't allow me to effectively load my legs.
