Episode notes
Inexperience Causes Inefficiency
- Inexperience causes inefficient, excessive effort that leads nowhere on the mats and in life.
- Skilled grapplers conserve energy and move with clear intent, like a car smoothly cruising in higher gear.
Build Efficiency with Situational Training
- Use situational training to repeatedly experience key positions and their common responses.
- This builds calmness and intuitive understanding, reducing energy waste when grappling.

- "Feeling" a position means relaxed, natural control where the body intuitively responds.
- The body figures out how to react before the conscious mind articulates the technique.
