Man, Judo is like Cobra Kai all the time. It's harsh bro.

They say Bruce Lee invented the 1 inch punch, well Judo invented the 2.5 inch uppercut.

Atemi waza is illegal in randori and shiai, as we all know. I would never, ever drive my fist up from under uke's chin while doing osoto gari. Never.

That's weird because I do it all the time in osoto. I uppercut people in the chest doing osoto. It's just effective.

Lol, kyu grades.

You don't do it whilst attempting a throw, you just straight up punch someone. Don't even faint a throw, maybe follow it up by kicking them on the inside of the ankle, but certainly don't do anything that resembles a throw.

Oh and there's always the elbow to the nose/ eye socket as you 'attempt' the Makikomi or 'go for' the Russian grip.

I have never kicked an ankle. It's usually the shin. It's way more effective. One day I'm going to try it without running away like a little girl.
