All right, guys, welcome to the Jiu-Jitsu podcast this week.

I am out in Las Vegas for the Nogi Worlds and coming to you a lot of, not live, but from our, from our Airbnb.

And, you know, one of the things that a lot of people talk about in Jiu-Jitsu is the waiting game.

This is the same thing in MMA and any combat sport, you know, where you're

playing in the waiting game where you're at a point where the training's done, and

you're sort of going downward into that point where you're getting ready to compete.

And what's what we're going to talk about today is some ideas on how to deal with

everything from the week of training,

like what you should be doing the week of training to make sure you have the best performance

possible come Saturday. Because a lot of times people, I've seen people completely destroy

or even ruin their ability to compete the week of a competition by making, it's a common

mistake that a lot of people make. We'll also talk about the week of a competition by making, it's a common mistake that

a lot of people make.

We'll also talk about the day of the competition and everything and how to deal with those

nerves and the whole waiting game of that.

And we'll give you some ideas and things to think about, you know, both from the actual

tactical things of, you know, with the things you can use, uh, tips on hydration and, um, foods to eat, things of that nature, but then also we'll get into the more mental side of it. So hopefully this is helpful to some of you guys that are competing at some point. Obviously, if you competed this weekend at the Nogi worlds and hope you did well, he did, uh, had a good job or did a good job and we're able to have the kind of performance you want. But if not, if you're listening to this later on and you're getting ready to compete at some point, then hopefully these ideas will help you get a better performance from yourself. Big thanks to our sponsors for helping make this podcast happen. Charles Webb, CBD, again, they're one of the OGs in the CBD space. They make CBD products along with a lot of others such as CBN products, which can be great for sleep.

They have functional mushroom products with things like Rishi and Lionsman to support cognitive functions, managing stress, a bunch of other really cool things.

And again, if you guys want to go to the website, just browse through the products and see if there's anything that you find that you'd like.

the CBD, CBN, Rishi, and things like that.
