Train what you do! Do what you train! Train how you fight! Fight how you train!

Just curious, what are the merits of training in the gi for no-gi ?

As far as I know, the idea is that gi training forces you to prioritise technique over strength; makes you a more technical nogi fighter. More about the mindset really.

You all are just wasting time cuz everyone know that "Renato" is not real. Not trying to be rude or disrespectful in any way...

I think it's sad at how insulted you are that this stuff would go ahead? Like I've said with someone else, it's not the most likeable thing to be THAT guy that tries to expose things because you think it'll get you cool points. In England, we call these people "a grass".

Looks like you're gonna be getting a visit from Brick Top.
