Which moves are awesome and which moves are taboo in Jiu Jitsu? Unfortunately, especially in the context of competition, the lines between the two get blurred sometimes. In this episode, I discuss the do’s and don’ts of BJJ techniques in competition and in the practice room. I also talk about what you can expect within your first two years of Jiu-Jitsu training.Please leave a review, subscribe, like, share, and comment if you can.

Tani otoshi is the technique that you shouldn't perform against your training partners. Tani otoshi is outlawed at my academy and creates a high risk in the training room.

What is the difference between good and GREAT competitors? Is it physical attributes, skill discrepancies, or just divine intervention? Sometimes, a major factor that can put a competitor in the winner’s circle is having supreme confidence and a belief that they cannot possibly lose. I discuss my last 2 competitions in Washington and Oregon, and contrast my game day experiences and rituals. I also share some fun stories, give some tips on how to boost your confidence when it really matters, and share some tips I received from the great Greg Souders to increase RNC finishes.Please leave a review, subscribe, like, share, and comment if you can.

One of the lowest hanging fruit you can obtain to live a happier and more productive life is to practice gratitude every day. We go through life taking some of our most precious things for granted; our jobs, health, and families. Being grateful for what you have is something we can all do a bit better. They say the grass is always greener on the other side, and this is profoundly accurate. Episode topics are avoiding grudges, the importance of setbacks, bullying and social hierarchy, using gratitude to be more productive, maintaining relationships, victim consciousness, and how to practice gratitude on a daily basis. Did you count your blessings today?Please leave a review, subscribe, like, share, and comment if you can.
