Last few weeks, the intermediate class has been working on control and attacks from a Turtle position.  Now, since we all have deeper understandings how our partner is able to control and ultimately take advantage of the situation and their favor, this upcoming week  priority will be in defending and removing ourselves from compromise positions within Turtle system.

Peter Thanos  you have made some huge and amazing changes in your life, specially surrounding diet. Good for you!

What’s the biggest suggestion you would give to those who find nutrition challenging? 

Are you saying you want to be ready for the “equalizer” ? 

This is deep Scott Tresch. Thank you for sharing 

Russell Usauskas good point. 

I think we can assume only certain things, they will always will be a large amount of unknown, specially if we don't know the other person. However, certain things will be safe to assume, bigger and heavier partner will have weight in his advantage. A tall partner will have easier access and distance control. A smaller person will have ability to find small spaces and escape easier.

I do believe more we know about the person, most strategic approach we can have. However, I also do thing. We often underestimate the amount of information that we can learn just by evaluating situation around us.

Jiu Jitsu is a game of strategy, how do you maneuver physically and technically challenges is the question… 

For me personally is not who is faster, stronger, or more experienced but who is able to expose weaknesses at the current situation/time. Jiu Jitsu is a puzzle, it’s a game… be ready ahead of time, study everything, know your partner, know your body and movement. 

😮 things are getting serious around here
