I love the kouchi gari to drop seoi nage combo.

Happy Remembrance Day. This is what we are remembering; the suffering, sacrafice, and loss of life that our soldiers experienced defending our future. If you have no interest in history, it will be difficult to see patterns repeat themselves. History adds context to your worldview in the present. Study and observe our mistakes from the past, and pay respects to our fallen. Today I plan on listening to some "Blueprint for Armageddon" by Dan Carlin @hardcore_history, a 6 part ...series on World War 1. This is my favourite podcast series, and I must have listened to it at least 8 times in it's entirety. I always learn something new. Put yourself in their shoes. Put your own life in perspective. We have it so fucking good. Let's appreciate that. Pictured: "Christmas truce" 1914. German and British soldiers organically stop fighting on Christmas Eve, 1914, and pop out of the trenches to exchange cigarettes, chocolates, cookies, songs, and even soccer games. Christmas trees decorated with candles and whatever could be found in the trenches sprung up all along the western front. This behavior infuriated the higher ups, and would become banned for the rest of the war- fraternizing with the enemy. When they came together, the two sides realized that they weren't so different. They were pushed violently and forcefully into battle with each other, when they were just young men who wanted to defend their home. It was a true tragedy, but even the ugliest war known to man had it's beautiful moments of humanity. Maybe we can look at this picture and learn more from these young men today about coming together. Never forget.

Thanks @stevekwan for the awesome book! @theshihtzuwhoknewjiujitsu

Flash back to my match in the finals vs. Bruno Frazatto at the @ibjjf Vegas open last year. I went for the arm drag and he prevented me from crossing his arm across the center line by punching a perfectly timed underhook. Great timing to secure a beautiful knee cut pass. Good to look back on matches and learn from your mistakes.... @islandtopteam @tidalbjj @sfugrappling @bjjmentalmodels @bckimonos @sc_supplements @sheepdogfitnesspoco @subversion_jiujitsu #simplywellnessdental

Recently I started noticing some lower back and hip pain on my right side. I couldn't pinpoint the pain, or figure out why it was happening. I tried physiotherapy, stretching, needling, and massage. Nothing was working. I remember back in the purple belt days- constantly inverting and always feeling super flexible. But now, even getting partially stacked, I would have to give up position. I couldn't fight back when I found myself stuck in these vulnerable positions, and that... scared me. Simply put, my back felt weak and I thought my body was just not what it used to be. Then I tried the @pso_rite on my hips and glutes. Over the next few days I noticed the pain and tightness in my back had completely subsided. I had found the one piece of equipment I could use to access those deep muscles. My sciatica was holding me back in training. Now the psorite is a regular part of my recovery. This thing worked for me. The difference has been incredible!

Lever control vs. Berimbolo Controlling levers and staying in base are crucial for defending this attack.

2021 will be a huge year for OGBJJ. One of my main goals for the academy is empowering more students to become highly competent instructors, and to expand the schedule to have more classes. I believe this is crucial for the student's personal development, as well as for business growth. Always look forward to the future and aim high. Looking forward to crushing goals....
