Is there a way to practice grappling when you don't have a partner?

I take judo, and I%26#039;m wondering what I can do to practice when I%26#039;m by myself. For striking arts, I can shadow box or hit the punching bag, but what about for grappling?|||You grapple ur cock and shoot a big roper|||First of all, Judo is not grappling.





You tie your obi to a post and practice your uchi komi%26#039;s.





You practice your ukemi. http://www.judoinfo.com/ukemi.htm





You do mat drills up and down the tatami: (%26#039;shrimping%26#039;; leg-extractions; neck-bridges; crab-walks; and stretching exercises) .








Judo has only two flaws that I can admit: 1. it doesn%26#039;t teach defense against multiple assault; 2. Judo kata requires two people.





So when you enter the dojo early Saturday morning finding yourself alone because of a particularly strenuous workout the previous night, you can be at a bit of a loss without an uke to practice and that is one of the rare fallacies of Judo. So do mat drills, practice your falls, and do fit-ins.|||Well there are resistance bands which you can wrap around a tree or a post and practice your throws that way. Practice the footwork movements of transitioning into throws.





As for ground grappling, it is a bit harder, but what you can do is perform exercises that will enhance your grappling such as shrimps, sprawls, rolls etc.
