BJJ Weeklyn kautta tupsahti mielenkiintoinen artikkeli aiheesta jota itsekin pohdin melko usein. Kuinka paljon oma tai vastustajan olemus vaikuttaa peliin? Ilmeisen paljon, ainakin niiden muutaman kisakokemuksen mukaan joita minulla on ollut. Itsessäni huomasin melko vahvankin reaktion ja luulen että aiheutankin reaktion, ainakin kotisalilla sparraillessa, isohko mies kun olen.
When I say I posture I mean the body language and presence of your opponent, and his affect on your game. In other words you’re about to spar with a tatted up, 4% body fat, mean looking dude and your body and mind are going into overdrive.
We’ve all had the experience of rolling with meatheads, and for us OGs (Older Grapplers) the thought of getting hurt or re-injuring a prior trauma can be overwhelming. I had a few choices; I could be submissive and possibly get hurt being overly conservative and slow to react, I could refuse to roll with him, or I could put things in perspective and see the posturing for what it was. Nothing more and nothing less than what I determined it to be.
Remember that perception is reality. Watching this guy roll before me was a critical for me to develop a detailed to my response. It let me formulate a game plan and then think it through before rolling. Have a plan ahead of time and stick with it and you will do what you expect to do. Control your emotions and react to things that are actually happening, not what you fear is going to happen.
