284 - Why You Have to Get Super Granular and Specific to Improve

From The Strenuous Life Podcast

Deliberate practice: if you try to get good at every aspect of your sport all at once then you'll get good at nothing. Instead break it down into specific skills, then break those skills down into components, and then refine those components before putting it all back together again.

Note: this was recorded outside in the wind, so the message is good but the audio is a bit fuzzy. Sorry about that - I'll pick a spot with less background noise in the future

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
