Mini Ep. 66: Abundance Mindset

Mini Ep. 66: Abundance Mindset

BJJ Mental Models

In this week's mini-episode, we discuss the idea of an **abundance mindset,** where we view success as something we can mutually achieve. The abundance mindset contrasts with a scarcity mindset, which sees success as a zero-sum game. This mini-episode explains why the abundance mindset can counterintuitively improve your Jiu-Jitsu over the long term, even though sport competition is usually zero-sum.

Do you feel like you gain more from going in and rolling or having class structure? Everybody loves an open mat: hard rounds, mat chats, messing around, meeting new people. But could structured classes be necessary to your jiu jitsu progression?

Beware Of Other People's BJJ Commandments (Episode 375)

On this episode, Chewy and Eugene get asked about BJJ Black Belt Henry Akins' recent comments that "Half Guard" is not a very good position in BJJ. Chewy and Eugene discuss why you shouldn't always accept other people's "dogma," the idea that "half guard is half passed," the original thoughts on leg locks in BJJ, why half guard is a great passing and sweeping position, why Jiu-Jitsu lives in the gray area, a common mistake many BJJ practitioners make, the distinction between "Old School" and "Modern BJJ," and why you should be a "tactical mercenary" in BJJ.

Mike McCastle smashed David Goggins' pullup record by doing 5,804 pull-ups in 24 hours while wearing a 30-pound backpack... and pulled an F-150 pickup truck 22 miles through Death Valley... and flipped a 250 lb tire for 13 miles... and climbed a rope for the equivalent distance of Mount Everest... and has trained MMA fighters, alpinists, and extreme adventurers like Colin O'Brady, the first man to cross Antarctica solo and unsupported. As such, he's the perfect person to kick off our 4-part series on hybrid training, where we'll delve into the art and science of maximising strength AND endurance at the same time. Some key areas covered include: - How hybrid training is about giving yourself options - Why strength training builds durability in joints and tendons - How to achieve your goals by reverse engineering the outcome - How to build mental toughness through conscious choices - Exactly how training should be tailored to individual needs and goals - Why recovery is crucial for optimal performance. - How to include skill development within your sport into your training phases - The methods Mike has used to create chaos in training to prepare for unpredictability - How training often and testing rarely is key to success.

Treino Old School com o Véio Jefão na Matriz Dennis Jiu-Jitsu em Maringá

Hoje você vai acompanhar um treino que é pura nostalgia para quem ama o verdadeiro jiu-jitsu raiz. Estive na matriz da Dennis Jiu-Jitsu Club em Maringá e reencontrei meu grande amigo e aluno faixa preta, o lendário “Véio Jefão”. Nosso treino foi no estilo que moldou toda uma geração: soltinho, respeitoso e com muita técnica refinada. Nada de força ou pressa, aqui o que manda é o tempo de casa, a sensibilidade e o jogo justo. Esse tipo de rola mostra a essência do jiu-jitsu que ensinamos há décadas, onde o foco é sentir o jogo, explorar as transições e se divertir no tatame. Se você curte ver dois faixas pretas com anos de estrada soltando o jogo no estilo Old School, esse vídeo vai te prender do começo ao fim. Não esquece de deixar seu like, se inscrever no canal e compartilhar com quem respeita o jiu-jitsu de verdade. OSS!
