Even on Da Streets grappling and Striking are mixed together On Da Streets!!

Good video. Agreed! If you separate all the time, the brain can't switch gears when needed. Whenever my boxers that crosstrain BJJ get on the ground, they stop dead in their tracks the first few times. It's as if they forget they know BJJ. It's an absolute necessity to connect the neurons together. Thanks for sharing Firas' video as well.

What I've been trying to inspire martial artists and mma athletes to realize is that the one thing lacking in Brazilian JiuJitsu that both Kodokan Judo and Collegiate Wrestling bring to one's arsenal is the development of Kuzushi in the standing clench...Kuzushi is what allows a smaller, less strong, individual to bring down, throw or control a larger, stronger, attacker in the standing clench during an unarmed close-combat encounter...Brazilian JiuJitsu training doesn't really focus on the development of this KEY ability to unarmed defense in a stand up clenching situation against a larger, stronger, attacker/opponent to the extent that both Kodokan Judo and American Collegiate Wrestling do to become sensative to and steal the base structure or center of balance of an attacker/opponent in standing clench range. This sensitivity to Kuzushi is what really made Rhonda Rousey so successful in MMA sport. It's the attribute that makes smaller, less strong, people capable of taking down much stronger, larger, adversaries in what seems like magic to third party observers. As one of the most important attributes to develop for unarmed combat it's the least understood and least developed attribute in most martial arts and combat sports, except for in Kodokan Judo and American Collegiate Wrestling.

“It’s not a set up unless you unbalance your opponent.” -Jack Dempsey

I see no point in training completely separately. Do not train in boxing or Muay Thai, learn (MMA) striking which is basically the above Adapted to an environment where grappling is involved. Why train boxing and then throw half of it out of the window because it doesn't work in MMA.

But most of it does work in MMA. I'll respect your opinion though. I understand your thinking! It makes sense. However, I feel like instead of throwing half of it out, you only use half of it but have the skills and discipline you gained from learning the other half. Boxing: punches. You use that a lot in MMA. ITF taekwondo: Best kicks and decent punches. You have the boxing for punches but you now have the best kicks in the world which are also used in MMA. And then with bbj and so on.

The point I was trying to make is why learn Muay Thai (which is suited to specific rules) when you can train striking like Muay Thai but already adapted to MMA?

I boxed for a long time growing up (won the golden gloves multiple times) and wrestled on the side. I got bored with boxing (and my progress was peaking) and wrestling wasn’t available to me outside of school. I started doing Muay Thai and jiujitsu consistently for about a year. By that time I was a very solid boxer and knew the basics of wrestling, bjj, and Muay Thai. Actual mma classes became available at my gym recently, so I thought “Why the hell not?”

I boxed a bit as a kid and now i'm interested in adding a martial art. From a non competitive pov, would you recommend bjj or judo? I was gonna look for somewhere that does muay thai but i'd like to try a grappling one first

i do bjj, judo, sometimes luta livre and now muay thai. it is incredible how all fits together, together with my body, my state of mind.

Well done sir. Looking forward to your new videos in 2019. Happy New Year to you & your family. Godspeed!

The basketball reference is spot on to me. I never thought of it that way...as always thanks for the videos. Happy New Year to all of you....make it a good one!

This is my program...Striking = 6 months Boxing with 3 months WCKF & 3 months Muay Thai. Weapons = 6 months FMA(LAMECO & BALINTAWAK SPRING & SUMMER). Grappling = 6 months(FALL & WINTER BJJ/Shuai Jai) Mostly a hand striker. Also respect the weapons and wrestling side of combat.

Thanks so much. I'll be starting college soon and they don't offer the sports I wanted so I thought I would learn a martial art instead. This helped me a lot in my decision process.

Happy New Year Ramsey! And Thank You for all your videos in 2018 it thought me a lot about martial arts and discipline

Happy new year, coach!

I'm currently 21, I did martial arts years ago, had a karate background and did some muay thai and grappling afterwards. I was a skinny kid so I decided to stop martial arts and do weightlifting instead at the age of 16. Now after 5 years of bodybuilding I've put on about 40 kg's. Decided that I didn't want to continue bodybuilding anymore as it was taking it's toll on my mental and physical health, because of the need to take anabolics to be competitive. So I tried something another sport where my big frame and strength could be useful, in this case rugby... First game, boom, tore my pec major tendon off the bone. Quickly decided that I didn't want to continue rugby anymore. So now I'm looking into starting MMA, as I am still pretty good at striking and I've been following the UFC and other organisations since I was a kid. I'm still recovering from the injury, but I'm doing what I can to get athletic and flexible again (shadow boxing, running, core, stretching ...). I'm looking for a gym to practice MMA, but it is like you said, there aren't really a lot of MMA gyms, especially here in Belgium. The gym nearest to me is owned by a full-contact/kickbox/muay thai guy, but there's also 'MMA' classes, allthough it's probably just some basic grappling and wrestling from what I've seen on their website. I was wondering what you'd do in a case like this, I obviously would look to make friends with guys that also want to be practicing MMA so we could do MMA drills and sparring together. Looking for another gym is not really an option, because MMA is still very much growing here in Belgium, kickboxing is very popular but there are barely any real MMA gyms. Sorry for the long comment, I just recently discovered your channel and this video is very familiar to the situation here for MMA in Belgium. Thank you.

Really good breakdown and advice, spot on about MMA - it's good to mix it up, just giving it a go to see how it works. It's very refreshing AND confusing at times but it's nice to refresh the mind. I do BJJ, 'traditional' japanese ju-jitsu and kickboxing. Ramsey is completely correct when he talks about doing these activities in isolation. In my Jitsu style we do a faux-MMA, continuous fighting - which is 2 mins of sparring (light contact), then 1.5 mins of standing randori (Judo) and then 1.5 mins of groundfighting (BJJ), utterly exhausting but really good as you have to use different skillsets for different parts. It's not true MMA but an approximation. I'd like to have enough time to do MMA but age and work/family committments are against me. 2 of the guys at our jitsu class do pure MMA training and love it.

Great point, Daniel Cormier is one of the best Wrestlers in the sport, if not the best. yet very rately does he start off by taking someone down. His wrestling is such a threat keeping his opponent worried about the take down he then throws punches and kicks. When a fighter starts to cover up he then takes them down with ease. DC is one of the all time best, but his mixing of wrestling and striking is what is so devastating. Thanks coach wishing you and your family a Happy New Year. Continued success her on the Tube.

A perfect mixed martial artist need mix between striking and grappling

It all boils down to what you really want. For example, I have no desire whatsoever to fight for competition of any sort. I fight for self defense, defense of my home and loved ones and survival. With that being said I take up MMA and BJJ because while MMA doesn't give you any huge advantages it also doesn't leave you with any inherent weaknesses. I choose BJJ because that's the kind of grappling I'm interested in learning and also doing MMA will allow me to figure out what are the best Jiu Jitsu and grappling techniques for a fight. My 8 year plan is to be competent in Mixed Martial Arts, Bjj and Edged weapons. MMA and BJJ will help me become a complete non competitive fighter.

Why not check out catch wrestling (grappling for the submission OR the pin)? It’s much more appropriate for MMA and Street Self-Defense than jiu-jitsu because while both arts have submissions, catch wrestling (and freestyle wrestling) teaches you to get the hell up OFF YOUR BACK, which is perfect for MMA & street self-defense; bjj’s two glaring weaknesses are 1) no takedown game unless you cross-train in judo, and 2) it’ll make you comfortable grappling from your back, is just Fine for jiujitsu tournaments but you want to train MMA so..

Mr Dewey, Question: I've recently started a TKD class (4 months in), the instructor is fantastic and I'm really enjoying it. However, recently I was introduced to ITF Sine wave... and to be honest it just sounds like nonsense to me and it's really putting me off. I don't want to spend years of my life training/learning sine wave technique if it's all made up. It all seems a little "culty" that sine wave is amazing and one of the secrets of TKD. Maybe it could be a good video topic to do a with and without striking example in your usual no nonsense approach. Really enjoying this channel, keep up the good work.

Hi Ramsey, big fan of your work. A follow up question to this video. I train Muay Thai and want to follow your advice and begin mixing styles. In particular, I want to start training in a grappling art. I'm very interested in judo but don't know enough about it to make an educated decision. Can judo be considered a cross between wrestling and BJJ? In which case, I hit two birds with one stone? How problematic is the lack of leg grabbing takedown techniques under the judo rules implemented at most schools? (Single legs, double legs etc are very effective in the cage so I don't like the idea of missing out on those techniques). How effective is judo in general, for both cage fighting and self defence? I learnt in this video the importance of having an MMA class where you can spare under unified rules so this is something I will look for in my search for a new grappling gym. Please keep in mind that I am only interested in what works. I understand that even styles like aikido can offer 'something' valuable but I'm just not interested. I want something that will work in the cage and in a self defence situation. Love the channel and keep up the great vids. You are helping more people than you realise.

A good idea is to train MMA then train more on the side in which style you want to be more proficient in, or perhaps which one you struggle in more.

I know this is an old video but if its not for mma and its for self defence, would training both muay thai and bjj seperatly (to have both striking and grappling expierience) be benifitial to the average person?

You hold that until you hear "bring sally up" again at which point you go up and hold a normal push up position. Rince and repeat for about 3:30 mins Here is a video where some guys do it. It is quite fun actually, especially when done with a backpack or something like that. kzread.info/dash/bejne/gGqNj9R_fpm0mto.html

What happens if I train my body in BJJ, Muay Thai, hapkido and ninjitsu altogether? I sometimes feel mentally overwhelmed

Traditional pugilism practices them together . Striking without gloves does make chancery (grappling) a lot easier . The kicks are delivered with a view to someone catching them if there too high . It's an amazing skill set really mostly forgotten but very very effective.

A really good sparing partner is the only good place to start someone you trust and that is hopefully better than you but you both learn to grow until you both move on to the next level

Its like training for a triathlon but never doing more than one event in a work out.

Now this guy kinda brown-noses the head coach so he became a "coach" but not just for jiujitsu , for the "white collar" mma charity fight thingy (Im sure youve heard of such things). So anyway, hes lethal on the ground, competes a lot and wins medals and such. Well he recently got into an actual cage match, his debut match and I believe it was pro or semi-pro or whatever. The guy he was facing had a record of like, 3-2 or something maybe, Idk and looked visibly more in shape aswell. Bare in mind, he knows nothing about striking, he goes into the first round and gets knocked out in a few seconds. I was thinking , what did you expect mate?!

As far as Judo and Karate they are fuequently taught together and it is quite posible for to gain black belts in both Judo and Karate however if a person decides to train for many years until they earn a black belt in both Karate + Judo and thats the definition someone wants to use for mastery thats fine but a black belt is a merly a strip of fabric and most black belts are not profesional grade fighters.As far as belts go the strange thing about belts is that they are basically a tangible item you can hold in your hand that is used in order to measure something which is imaterial in nature and belt systems can quite easily lead someone into a false sense of how competent they really are but if someone wants to retreat into that fantasy world then thats there problem.

I think this is nonsense.

But you don't have to become reaaaaaaaally good first at strking and grappling before training it in combination makes sense.

Of course boxing is a martial art. It’s one of the oldest martial arts.

Let's say you had two equivalent coaching teams pick two teams from 200 absolute beginners. Each team has 100 people and at the end of 6 months they must at gun-point enter a cage and fight to the death with MMA gloves. The winning coaching team lives, losing coaching team dies with their losing team. You're only allowed to do 4 hours of training per day. Now what would be your coaching strategy? 4 hours of all striking or 4 hours of all grappling? Or would you split it 2 hours each? I think it's safe to argue that the team that learned only grappling would murder the team that only learned striking. But I would argue that the team that learned both would murder a grappling-only team or a striking-only team. It's not that they would be better at either discipline, just that they could pick where to engage the fight. Against the grappling team they would only strike. Against the striking team they'd take it to the ground. Also, I think there is the point of diminishing returns. Getting beginner gains is incredibly easy because you're mostly learning to use the muscles you have, to get better muscle recruitment, and to have better coordination in the movement. The team that trains 2 hours per discipline will not that far behind the team that trains 4 hours. There's only so much you can absorb in a day both mentally and physically. Now this scenario is totally fictitious and nobody is going to force anybody to fight to the death in a cage match. But the lesson here applies to the street and real world self defense.

So what happened with Max Holloway and Brian Ortega ? Brian Ortega being a world class BJJ guy. and Holloway being a striker, landed a record number of significant strikes 290 Ortega was undefeated was killing everyone, yet Max tore him up. Multiple time World champion BJJ Demian Mai lost pretty soundly to a loud mouth striker Colby Covington. Saying BJJ is the end all isn't the quite right.

@@kyokushin-4-life890 You simply confirmed what I said, which is the fact that someone with better mixed skills will defeat the purist. But I also said that a pure grappler will generally beat a pure striker (someone with zero ground game). BJJ specialists who lack the wrestling to take the fight to the ground will always be beaten by a better striker with good takedown defense.

@@GeorgeOu hmmm If I am coaching someone who I know is going to get into the cage even as a striker I am going to teach them how to stop a take down. I wouldn't be a very good coach if I didn't. At that point it just wouldn't make sense at a;; to teach striking and not teach take down defense. However if you are saying your going to NOT allow one team to know there will be grappling then I give that to you. But BJJ in itself isn't the end all unless your going blind into...

@@kyokushin-4-life890 You don't learn take down defense from a striking coach and a few sprawling drills. You have to train against good wrestlers and you have to train wrestling. You still learn BJJ and submission skills even if you're a world class wrestler. At that point you're not just learning striking. You're learning striking, wrestling, and submissions.

For your hypothetical, split 50-50. Only because of diminishing returns on additional time spent in an activity. Your first 100 hours of any activity is more educational than the 600-700 hour period. Your example is 720 hours. I'd take the 320 in both, rather than miss out on the super rewarding first 100 hours of either.
