On this episode of the podcast, Chewy and Eugene discuss a common mistake in Jiu-Jitsu. This mistake is getting good at a position in Jiu-Jitsu, but only focusing on one or two techniques from that position, and when your opponent starts to counter those techniques, moving on to another position. We chat about why the better option is to find more techniques from the position you are working on to make your attacks more difficult to defend.
We also discuss the process that goes into developing multiple attacks from one position, whether you should fine tune a technique from one side or try to develop a technique from both sides, the idea of chaining techniques together, your BJJ techniques being like a "Deck of cards," what it's like attending the Chewjitsu Costa Rica Retreats and how they are structured, and what was unique about training in Costa Rica.
