Interviews

This week we're joined again by Defensive BJJ coach and BJJMM fan-favorite guest Priit Mihkelson! In this episode, Priit discusses the importance of angles when defending from inferior positions. Priit explains concepts for finding the correct angle when defending from the bottom, such as maintaining a 45° angle relative to the floor after your legs have been cleared, and how "making a capital T" by positioning your body perpendicular to your opponent can prevent them from wrapping their arm around your head.

"THIS. IS. EPISODE 300!" The HIT Squad has been referenced on the podcast many times but today we are going to give you the real scoop. 16 years ago someone decided to invest a lot of money into an abandon army depot with the hopes of making the first ever "MMA Super-Gym." The gym ran for 3 years before having to sell, in that time they changed tons of lives, produced multiple TUF/UFC Fighters, and shifted the course of a small Illinois town forever. So today I'm joined by my coach, former UFC Fighter, and former Hit Squad BJJ Coach, Kyle Watson(@watson_martial_arts). Kyle and I(@thejoshmckinney) share stories, critiques, and lessons learned from the 3 years that we spent at "The Greatest Gym of ALL TIME*" Sign up for 50% of[BJJ Mental Models](https://www.bjjmentalmodels.com/pricing) Promo code “JOSH”: FREE Copy of[⁠The 3 Lenses⁠](https://www.simplifyingjiujitsu.com/3) Join[⁠ISAJJ PRO](https://www.simplifyingjiujitsu.com/suck)(“Master the Melt Pass”) Join the[Gi Gazette](https://www.simplifyingjiujitsu.com/GG) [⁠Ask Questions/Suggest Topics⁠](https://www.simplifyingjiujitsu.com/ask) for the show Follow the show on[⁠ Instagram⁠](https://www.instagram.com/isuckatjiujitsushow) [⁠Check out the ISAJJ Youtube Channel⁠](https://www.youtube.com/@JoshMcKinney)
