When I asked him for No-Gi tips... he said "train with the gi, it makes your No-Gi better"...

it worked for him...
IT was not the GI that made his grappling better....it was the GRAPPLING that did.Obviously if a blue belt or purple
or brown or black belt entered a no gi tourny.....obviously he would do good because hes a good/great GRAPPLER.About 90% of the people who enter no gi train most of the time with a gi.Not manny places train no-gi more then once a week...except MMA schools.Good luck with your training and coaching cam.
