237 - Survive First and Win Later - Timeless Jiu-Jitsu Wisdom

From The Strenuous Life Podcast

October 18, 2019 · 4:12 · E237

"Survive first, win later" was one of the very first pieces of advice I ever received in jiu-jitsu. It helped me then and it still helps me now, both on and off the mat. I hope this mentality helps you too!

And just a quick reminder that a rating or a review of the podcast is the easiest thing you can do to help out, so thank you for that in advance.

Good luck with your training,

Stephan Kesting

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gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.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.
