What up, guys. Welcome to the Chihitsu podcast today. We're going to get into some ideas on why people in Jiu-Jitsu don't improve.

It's some ideas that I've talked about with you guys on the podcast before. And one of the, the Jiu-Jitsu goats, one of the greatest of all time, I was talking about it recently. And so I figured it would be something to bring up because it's important. nothing sexy about it of course but it's. And so, you know, there's an importance to repetition. Some of you guys are new, obviously listening to the podcast, but if you're a long-time listener, it'll be information that we've gone over. But, you know, repetition of information is important. Sometimes things don't stick with you the first time around, right? Like if you guys learn a technique, sometimes the technique doesn't stick with you the first time. You see it again, and then all of a sudden, it's like, for whatever reason, that time is when it stuck. I remember having that experience with Butterfly Guard. I remember the first time I kind of got exposed to it. I liked it, but it just wasn't clicking. And then my coach went over it again some, you know, probably about a year later. and then the second time, boom, there was, all of a sudden it was just like this position just

felt right to me. And so we'll talk about some ideas on why people don't improve and how to

improve, how to structure things around so that you can get more from your training and to make

better use of the wide world of information that you have at your

fingertips as a modern human being today's world. So, Ben, thank you guys for being here.

They make mints that are basically microdose THC mints that come along with other

cannabinoids to help create a different effects in your body depending on the

situation you're looking to. So for instance, they have a power, a flow, and a

rebound formula. The flow formula, for instance, is two milligrams of THC.

So that's really like not a big deal.

You're not going to be crazy off your rocker and anything like that.

It's going to be very mellow.

But on top of that, it has a blend of CBG and CBD compounds to do about 12 milligrams

of those.

And that sort of blend of cannabinoids can help work harmoniously together to elevate your mood,

sharpen your focus, and, you know, help unlock a little bit of creativity, which can be

nice for us in jiu-jitsu. A lot of times when you're trying to play around with new stuff,

as we'll talk about in the podcast here and trying to be more creative on the mat. Sometimes

those things can help be helpful to put you into a

particular mindset to make that happen. If you guys want to check out any of their products,
