An Important Paradigm Shift For Your BJJ (Especially If You're Older) (Episode 430)

On this episode of the podcast, Chewy and Eugene discuss an important paradigm shift in BJJ.

We discuss why BJJ practitioners initially get too fixated on making a technique work, but with experience and skill, you will need start to focus more on getting deeper into a position rather than a technique.

Why also discuss why you should focus on purely holding position, thinking differently about what a "dominant" position is, "control before position," the best positions to control your opponent in BJJ, how to help less experienced grapplers focus more on position, the importance of keeping a consistent pace as an older grappler, positions older grapplers should be good at and positions to avoid, and watching matches to get inspiration for techniques and positions in BJJ.
