		<description><![CDATA[5. BJJ is like an Anaconda - Or any other constricting animal, really.  I think I&#8217;ve heard this one more in regards to submissions than anything else.  You know, the slow, pressurized squeezing chokes and joint locks that make you feel like you are going to be pulverized in to bone dust and muscle jelly.
