Episode 360: Have you got a bad ankle? Never really done much about it? JT & Joey take you through the 5 key steps to restoring the spring to your step. Now most of time as BJJ folks we get away with having crappy ankles by just pulling guard or avoiding stand up battles but at some point in time you will have to hop and jump during rolling. If you are coming off the couch with a freshly sprained ankle you need to get that bad boy checked by a health professional to make sure your ligaments are all intact before you start to do anything to make sure you are not doing more harm than good. Follow this Guide to gradually build yourself back up - be patient. Do go rushing back to Jiu-Jitsu until you have passed these 5 check points! Let us know your bad ankle stories in the comments.

Posts are important for maintaining your own base and creating opportunities to attack your opponent. This is the sixth in a six-part series of mini-episodes we're doing on the **core mechanics** of Jiu-Jitsu: **frames, levers, wedges, clamps, hooks,** and **posts.** **Further study:** Mini Ep. 6: Frames [https://podcast.bjjmentalmodels.com/243161/15242269-mini-ep-6-frames](https://podcast.bjjmentalmodels.com/243161/15242269-mini-ep-6-frames) Mini Ep. 7: Levers [https://podcast.bjjmentalmodels.com/243161/15282009-mini-ep-7-levers](https://podcast.bjjmentalmodels.com/243161/15282009-mini-ep-7-levers) Mini Ep. 8: Wedges [https://podcast.bjjmentalmodels.com/243161/15318897-mini-ep-8-wedges](https://podcast.bjjmentalmodels.com/243161/15318897-mini-ep-8-wedges) Mini Ep. 9: Clamps [https://podcast.bjjmentalmodels.com/243161/15359561-mini-ep-9-clamps](https://podcast.bjjmentalmodels.com/243161/15359561-mini-ep-9-clamps) Mini Ep. 10: Hooks [https://podcast.bjjmentalmodels.com/243161/15389178-mini-ep-10-hooks](https://podcast.bjjmentalmodels.com/243161/15389178-mini-ep-10-hooks) Get our Intro to Mechanics audio course, normally $79, FREE: [https://bjjmentalmodels.com/freeintro](https://bjjmentalmodels.com/freeintro) **Don't forget to check out BJJ Mental Models Premium!** If you love the podcast, you'll definitely love our premium membership offerings.

You ever escaped a submission and thought, they let me get out of that? Perhaps it was your immense skill or was it an act of generosity by your training partner? In BJJ and all parts of life acts of kindness allow others to learn, survive and grow as a result of showing empathy to others. Now this might sound strange in an art of breaking ligaments and choking each other unconscious but recently there have been some acts of generosity that need to be noted. Lachlan Giles has decided to award the remaining money he had from an anonymous donor and give it equally to all Australian athletes who qualified for the ADCC. This amounts to approximately $5.5k which might not sound like much but will go a long way to help these people chase their Jiu-Jitsu dreams. This discussion is about giving people a chance, an opportunity to live to fight another day as apposed to breaking their ligaments. Letting someone off lightly where you could potentially punish them so they have a chance to grow and develop and this helps move the culture forward.

Are you a gambler? Like to place the occasional bet on the UFC for fun? When you are on the mats at Jiu-Jitsu you are rolling the dice on your ligaments. Now most BJJ folks aren't super crazy risk takers they just want to roll- but you are playing with fire. Whenever you place a bet you need to consider your odds, how likely are you to win vs how likely are you going to rupture your ACL. Injury can strike even when we are just doing simple drills so how can we lower our chances of injury so we are more likely to win than crap out? JT & Joey discuss in depth how you can enjoy the thrills of the Jiu-Jitsu lifestyle while implementing a couple of strategies to not go all in, the story and references will surprise you but the message has an interesting conclusion. Can you bet your body and beat the house?

On this episode of the podcast, Chewy and Eugene discuss two rules for Jiu-Jitsu. Rule #1 - Expect to get thrown off a horse into a pile of manure. Chewy shares a story of getting thrown off of a horse and how the expectation of this possibility helped with the discomfort and difficulty of the process of learning to ride. We discuss the realization that struggles and difficulties are a part of getting better at Jiu-Jitsu, expect that there will be difficulties with learning Jiu-Jitsu, why failure is the "buy in" for improving, avoiding failure will hold you back, and the goal in training should be to develop skills. Rule #2 - When your lungs are burning…look fresh! Chewy shares a story of a tough tournament match where even though he was tired, looking fresh gave him the edge over his opponent. We also discuss why showing fatigue will give your opponent a boost, the importance of paying attention to your opponent's breathing pattern, how much of Jiu-Jitsu is mental vs. physical, why the physical precedes the mental when building confidence, why Jiu-Jitsu is a philosophy of doing, update your ego through challenging yourself, and move towards your fears.

What is the best type of strength training to get big and strong for BJJ? Is Powerlifting best- Squat, Bench & Deadlift? Are kettlebells, Indian clubs and Maces Bells which are more dynamic better for grappling strength? What tool is right for the job of build Real Strength. JT & Joey discuss the pros and cons each major strength training approach and then get to the heart of the problem... Do you just gravitate towards that which is easiest for you? Often the biggest gains you can make in your strength for BJJ are in the lifting you are avoiding. Basing your strength program just on what feels good isn't a good method for building your base. Also the unique or cool new training system that just came out can look exciting, this also doesn't mean it's effective. The boys clear through the nonsense and give you the direction you need to get strong for BJJ.

This podcast episode covers all the details and preparations for a long solo trip in the Arctic that I'm starting today! After 30 hours of driving and a 2 hour bush plane flight to Nueltin Lake I'll be heading north of the treeline direct into the Barren Lands of the Arctic. Once there, I'll be completely alone and out of touch for 30 days. The only written description of the river is a few pages in a book written by a missionary in the late 1800's. The trip spans the Thlewiaza, The-Tinne, Kognak and Tha-Anne rivers and will probably include caribou and bear encounters, whitewater and giant ice-covered lakes, and insanely complex navigational challenges. Once the trip is underway, I'll be sharing a few photos from the field a small satellite device So if you're interested in adventure and how well jiu-jitsu works against giant Hudson Bay Polar Bears then follow along! The best place to stay current is probably on Instagram ([https://www.instagram.com/essentialwilderness/](https://www.instagram.com/essentialwilderness/)), although this page on Essential Wilderness (https://tinyurl.com/nunavutsolo) should have a map that updates with my location once I'm on the water I believe that pictures from this trip will also get cross-posted on Threads (https://www.threads.net/@stephan_kesting) Tiktok (https://www.tiktok.com/@essentialwilderness), and Youtube (https://www.youtube.com/@essentialwilderness/community) I'll be back to the world and jiu-jitsu in late July. Hopefully! Cheers, Stephan P.S. I'm telling my publisher that this is my official book tour, so if you haven't yet pre-ordered Perseverance, Life and Death in the Subarctic (the story of another trip I did up there) then please help me out! You can grab it at Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Perseverance-Death-Subarctic-Stephan-Kesting/dp/1639368612/ https://www.amazon.ca/Perseverance-Death-Subarctic-Stephan-Kesting/dp/1639368612/ Barnes and Noble https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/perseverance-stephan-kesting/1145682384 And Indigo. https://www.indigo.ca/en-ca/perseverance-life-and-death-in-the-subarctic/9781639368617.html
