Summary

On this episode, we answer the question of whether you should always focus on “position before submission” in Jiu-Jitsu.

We discuss getting chokes without solidifying a position, using leg locks, advantageous positions that aren’t the “traditional”BJJ positions, the benefits of position before submission for beginners, how submissions are initiated through transitions, how tournament rules dictate the grappling style, a rule that is commonly broken in Jiu-Jitsu, and the importance of being coachable.

All right, guys. So today's podcast is going to be diving into the idea of the maxim of position before submission, right?

0:07.0

So everyone that comes into jih Tutsu from the time you start, you're told that position before submission is kind of the way to go.

0:15.1

And that maxim is often repeated over and over again.

0:18.1

And so we got a question from a guy about it.

0:20.2

And we'll jump into

0:21.3

this podcast and kind of go over that idea and give you a couple ideas that you own for your

0:25.2

jiu-in-for-jitsu. Again, thank you guys for being here. Thanks to our sponsors for helping

make the podcast happen. Charles Webb CBD, again, broken record if you listen to the podcast very

0:34.8

often. But again, Charles Webb is the CBD that I use, the CBD that we use on the pot here for Eugene and I.

0:40.4

And again, they've been a sponsor for the podcast a long time. One of the reasons why I like their stuff is that their third party tested.

0:45.6

So in a field like CBD supplements, which is all unregulated, you know, basically people can just get away with, you know, giving you

whatever they want to in these vials.

0:56.8

They don't necessarily have to produce a good product.

0:59.0

And there was some studies done years ago where that was, in fact, what was happening

1:02.6

with a lot of the product out there.

1:04.2

Their third party tested to ensure what's in the bottle is what's in the bottle.

1:08.4

And they're kind of, I remember talking to one of the representatives out in Colorado and they were saying that, you know, whenever this stuff does

1:14.4

get regulated, which eventually will, they will be ready to go because they're already

1:18.5

doing all the processes to ensure the quality of it. And if you actually look at their backstory

1:22.4

and why they created it, it's worth reading about or watching a video one because it's pretty

1:27.5

interesting. They create it for a young girl named Charlotte. It's where the Charlotte's web name

1:30.4

comes from. And so they, they kind of always talk about that. That's kind of their mantra within
