On this episode, Chewy and Eugene discuss how avoiding the initial discomfort of dealing with a problem can lead to a bigger problem that will require more effort to resolve later. We discuss the habit of avoidance, how avoiding discomfort in BJJ can stagnate your game, why we avoid growth in Jiu-Jitsu, how failure and difficulty creates better learning, the importance of being patient with your progress, and learning to enjoy the difficult times.

Parry Athletic The best training gear in the game and Get 20% OFF Discount Code: BULLETPROOF20 [https://parryathletics.com/collections/new-arrivals](https://parryathletics.com/collections/new-arrivals) The BJJ lifestyle is sold as healthy- but is it? When you dedicate yourself to the Jiu-Jitsu journey there are many bad habits that you pick up along the way in the name of getting better at the art. This may cause chaos, injury and disfunction in other parts of your life but we excuse these problems because we love BJJ so much. If you ask your coach they will always say to show up everyday. This is not necessarily the best advice. Rolling to win and always pushing not to Tap or be submitted is another bad habit even though you might think these are the traits of a champion. JT & Joey unpack what you need to avoid in order to stay healthier mentally and physically to improve your BJJ longevity.

Want to train but can't due to illness, injury or no BJJ available - you need alternatives. Joey & JT discuss what they like to do when Jiu-Jitsu isn't an option. Staying active off the mats is essential to being healthy physically and mentally. Sitting on the couch is easy to do but will make your BJJ comeback much harder and can lead to future injury. These strategies are helpful for anyone who is battling mental health issues because they can't get their Jiu-Jitsu fix.

Today I pick the brain of the amazing Jost Kobusch is a German mountaineer who spent two seasons on Everest trying to ascend the legendarily difficult West Ridge route and the Hornbein Couloir alone. And did I mention that he wasn't using supplemental oxygen and attempting this in the middle of the brutal Himalayan winter? We covered a TON of interesting topics, including - Why do things the hardest way? - His closest call in the mountains - The dangers of the Khumbu Icefall - Getting hit by an avalanche at Everest Base Camp - His preferred diet for performance at high altitude - Training for high altitude - Dealing with injuries - And more I hope you enjoy this! Share it with a friend if you do! Stephan Kesting P.S. In 2015 Jost was about to climb Everest when an earthquake triggered an avalanche that destroyed Everest Base Camp. Here's the footage he filmed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JC_wIWUC2U P.P.S. At age 21 Jost became the youngest person to solo Ama Dablam, a 6812 meter mountain in the Himalayas.
