Hi, my name is Josh Hayden and I started training in Jiu Jitsu about 5 years ago after I got a career ending injury in football. I started my training with leg lock specialist and ADCC Veteran Joe Baze.
My younger, much smaller, brother Jason was a blue belt at the time got me to come into the gym and used to tap me out left and right...
and I’m the big brother who used to whoop his butt our whole lives!! But then I was hooked!
For the first 3 years of my training it was pretty much ALL LEG LOCKS ALL DAY...Needless to say, I realized pretty fast how devastating leg locks really are and how much people respected them.
I got real good real fast from getting tapped out numerous times by Joe and my brother.
But then, something crazy happened...
Even in my battered mental state, I decided to try a competition out. I went in, and leg locked everyone...So just to make sure it wasn’t luck, I registered for another one...
and again...
Leg lock...Tap...Leg Lock...Tap...Leg Lock...Tap...
Advanced divisions...NO DIFFERENT!
Leg lock...Tap...Leg Lock...Tap...Leg Lock...Tap...
