    Ep. 72: Technique Chaining May 11, 2020
    Show notes

    As we've learned from Street Fighter, combos are important. A single technique in isolation is not as effective as a series of chained attacks.
    There are two ways you can chain attacks together: in a sequence, or in parallel.

    Ep. 70: Staying Loose Apr 27, 2020
    Show notes

    Learning to stay loose is one of the quickest ways to improve your Jiu-Jitsu. This week, Steve and Matt explain the importance of staying loose, how to develop awareness of when you're too tense, and when it's appropriate to use tension.
    Why you should stay loose:

    • It masks your intentions
    • It saves energy and prevents muscle burnout
    • It denies your opponent leverage.

    When it's okay to use tension:

    • When you're doing so for a reason
    • When your tension cannot be exploited.
