Hi everyone!
I'm a few months into my Judo training, still loving it, and I have a question on creating openings on opponents who are larger and stronger.
I find the any attempt I make to open these dudes up for a throw is easily blocked by their strength - they either push me away with their arms or simply lift me straight into a counter throw.
The only success I've had so far is by waiting for them to make an attack and then attempting to counter (got a beauty of a foot sweep the other night doing this!). However this requires playing quite defensively and I'm aware that's probably not a great thing to be?
Is there any advice for opening up particularly large and strong opponents? I was thinking maybe it was horses for courses - basically the only person at the club lighter than me is a female BB and she continuously floors me with superbly timed sweeps - are these the sorts of throws I should be thinking about?
cheers! -Jon
