[@LexClips]

Full podcast episode: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nn29Z4N3eKh1r5o Lex Fridman podcast channel: kzbin.info Guest bio: Craig Jones, Nicky Rod and Nicky Ryan, together with Ethan Crelinsten are founders of the B-Team, a legendary jiu jitsu team based in Austin, TX.

Here’s something that can change your way of life or thinking. This is the most important thing you will hear/read today. If you’ve told one lie, stolen anything, or lusted (which is adultery of the heart), you’ll be found guilty on Judgment Day and end up in Hell. But there’s good news: Though we broke God’s Law, Jesus, the prophesied Messiah, perfectly kept the Law, fulfilling all righteousness. He paid the fine for sinners ( that we could never pay ) by suffering and dying on the cross-absorbing the wrath of God that we deserve. “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.” Then Jesus rose from the dead and was seen by hundreds of eyewitnesses. Today, repent and trust Jesus; God will grant you forgiveness and the gift of eternal life. God bless God bless ❤❤😊

[@optimusmaximus9646]

Great discussion. Allowing students to experiment through games is a great way to learn as it teaches them that concepts are more important than techniques. Through a process of trial and error and proper guidance a student will invariably find the right way of doing something. This is far better than just showing a student a particular way of doing something by rote. It will help them to see the connection to the concept and therefore be better able to adapt a technique in any given situation.

[@l0pster]

Concepts First, Techniques/moves will follow. thats whats helped me learn the most...understanding the WHY things work helps you achieve the move

[@flowlikewater01]

This isnt really advice for beginners as beginners are only able to do what is being tought by their instructors. Its more adice for instructors on how to teach beginners and get them to critically analyse problems. I like it as i found that it took me a long time to work out the problems before I even got to apply the techniques.

[@mkmkk]

Craig has great insight into the learning process 1:58

[@paperfart3988]

A lot of what you learn as a white belt is how to become comfortable in uncomfortable situations. That's something you honestly do have to figure out on your own. But yeah as for technique and whatnot I'd imagine it's frustrating to show up to class and be learning some weird position that is not very practical for you at that stage.

[@ruutjormun2262]

​​@@paperfart3988 right as my 6th month of beginner training began, instructors bumped it up a gear, probably due to low intake and barely any turnover to higher skill classes. i realised in that class, that in my entire 6 months i had never been uncomfortable. i left that class with facial marks, bruises, and so many sore areas that people thought id gotten into a legit punch-out. bjj is crazy slow for white belts.

[@davidd854]

I'd recommend the Danaher approach for white belts. Start learning from the worst positions to the most offensive (although maybe not much fun). Also, focus on a few of the most solid beginner-friendly techniques and learn them well instead of learning a little bit of 1000 techniques. Also, just watch Danahers instructionals for beginners on youtube :p

i stand straight up with a Greco style even from a wrestling background when playing BJJ a lot of guys myself included want the bottom position so we dont fight for it. in wrestling to defend a takedown you have your hands first then your head then your hips. so they lean and squat to use these barriers in BJJ a lot of us aren't worried about DEEP shots or low shots due to the skill or in most cases we dont care that we are being taken down. i find his games explanations remarkable it eliminates everyone's questions and what-ifs about something you want to teach because you allow them to show themselves what works and what doesn't before you even start! truly brilliant!

[@widehotep9257]

I think the best thing to teach a white belt on the first day of class is a rear-naked choke with a body triangle locked in. Just let them start with the body triangle in place and their arms and hands in the proper position and show them how to squeeze until the guy taps. They will be THRILLED to see the proof of jiu-jitsu's effectiveness by tapping-out their expert instructor. This will lead them to learning all the other techniques. If you introduce a white belt to BJJ by doing a bunch of intricate and confusing guard passes, then have them get their @sses whooped rolling at the end of class, a lot of newbies will get bored and may lose interest. Always give them a little taste of victory in every class by letting them tap someone out. This keeps them inspired.

[@yurisoares1619]

[@widehotep9257]

@fallensummit2364 Starting BJJ as a beginner reminds me of changing schools halfway through the school year when I was in High School. I got thrown into the middle of six or seven classes where I didn't have any idea what was going on. It was difficult and felt embarrassing trying to catch up with everyone else. That's what BJJ felt like for the first 6 weeks. Not all good jiu jitsu guys are good teachers. Athleticism vs communications and leadership are completely different things. Mike Tyson was a champion, but not a good coach. His trainer, Cuss D'Amato, was not a good fighter but was an excellent coach. A good leader and teacher keeps his students interested. I think letting the newbies choke people out and submit people a couple times EVERY CLASS is vital. This keeps them interested and reminds them of the power of BJJ. Once they know these finishing moves, THEN teach them the road map of steps to get to that position (guard passes, sweeps, body control, etc). Glad you had a good experience with your private lessons! Wish I had done that instead of learning tons of gi techniques that I never used and have since forgotten.

[@jessegandy7361]

Craig is a very smart guy

[@chris98wallace]

The difference in stance is due to the threat of the guillotine. It’s more important to protect your neck than your legs in jiujitsu. The inverse is true for wrestling. The low stance, which protects you in wrestling, hurts you in jiujitsu. It expends energy and opens your neck up to attacks

[@Sean-xr1xj]

1:50 I'd love a less complicated guide like this. Tbh I don't want to learn everything I just want a high percentage gameplan that I can execute against the best

[@pinksupremacy6076]

You gotta start with principal understanding. What's the purpose of bjj, whats the most preferable positions? What are we striving to accomplish? From there you gotta introduce the most basic techniques like a single leg take down, a mount sweep, amerikana lock, hip escape etc. You gotta learn how to get to a position or how to get away from a position before applying more submissions. Unfortunately there's no real system out there like in judo.

[@morganweller1491]

First of all i agree completely Just a question bruh why do you think judo is better than wrestling cause I've been trying to pick one and judo there always using the gi don't know if there's no gi judo and if all the throws and takedowns are easier with it wrestling you don't have all that please tell me what you think

[@markdaniels4178]

@morganweller1491 learn judo and learn with the gi; learn judo because it covers all the wrestling moves and more. Judo is jiu-jitsu and its battle proven and has been proven many times on the battle field. Judo aka judo has a high body count on the battlefield make no mistake about it.

[@markdaniels4178]

@morganweller1491 take note that judo is the core to many martial systems of modern jiu-jitsu and sambo. Judo is what the Japanese police use and many other police and military use worldwide. Don't get caught up in this American Brazilian jiu-jitsu cult, that's a game at best unless your professor teaches standup. Also, it takes longer to learn judo because it's more moves by leaps and bounds.

[@markdaniels4178]

@morganweller1491 also, people fight with shirts and clothes, when you see military and police practice judo they practice with clothes on. 😳 however, it's recommended that you practice non gi one day out of the week. Also, the gi makes you much stronger by leaps and bounds and stay the hell away from MMA and invest in two books : kodokan judo book and mind over muscle

Trying to do 3 days a week as much as I can. I fixed a hydration issue--I was DYING during class--by drinking a Gatorade right before. I'm starting to learn what to do and when, but I've only just begun, and it takes me an extended period of time to realize moves and counters that are available to me. I die later in class now, but I'm realizing my number one issue is: I need to remember to breathe! I have what I can only describe as a panic attack after a few rolls at the end of class. I panic trying to take my belt off, just needing more air. I really, really need to focus on my breath. Thanks for asking :)

[@cassiuscarter2832]

This is the best jujitsu theory I've ever seen. You can't teach an old dog new tricks and asking people starting jujitsu in their mid to late 20s and onward to learn how to wrestle for jujitsu just doesn't work and doesn't promote longevity. Those guys will never out wrestle people who started wrestling young. Also, I am not quite a purple belt but I work with kids classes and new white belts and I always sit in butterfly and ask the white belts to use their instincts and rationale to mount me so they can start to understand the barriers keeping them from getting there. They have no idea what to do but you lock someone in a room with a puzzle and eventually they figure out how to put it together. Those white belts have been the fastest to progress and within a few months are able to train and drill new techniques and retain parts of them instead of looking around the room at how other people are doing it lost and bored.

[@qazmko22]

1:59 I am glad that even Craig Jones endorses games, and limited positional sparring in order to teach a white belt to defend themselves. Greg Souders is another Black Belt teacher that endorsed that approach. kzbin.info/www/bejne/imiWZXqPl657a8k

[@davemcalinden1566]

Craig is spot on here, BUT... This isn't really discovery learning or problem based learning that Craig is talking about. I think that can be confusing for would-be instructors when they go to dig deeper on how to apply his approach. Discovery and problem-based learning are really NOT good approaches for novice students. What Craig is actually talking about it using preassessment and speed-to-failure to both foster intrinsic motivation as well as identify the most salient issues in the learner that need to be addressed. He's also oriented toward simplicity and using scaffolding to help build up the learner in layers. So, the instructional model is, basically: 1. Provide a pretest (a problem to contextualize a skill; Craig talks about using situation games, which is great) slightly above the learner's level. 2. Observe where and how they fail and succeed. 3. Provide explicit instruction that aligns with their needs when it comes to the specific technique or concept being taught. 4. Have them consciously apply that learning in another round of the game. 5. Go back to step 2. This is a combination of what Bjork calls providing a Desirable Difficulty, what Bransford calls Anchored Instruction, and what Bruner calls the Spiral Curriculum. In addition it has elements of Merrill's First Principles of Instruction which is completely centered around a task to be completed in context-that is, everything is centered on a task/problem; activate prior knowledge of concept or procedure; demonstrate proper application of concept or procedure; guide students through that application; have students integrate that into real-world use of the task or concept. Craig is correct in his description of good teaching and learning for applied concepts, but I think he confuses the verbiage a bit. Discovery learning and problem based learning doesn't work very well because it is minimally guided. It works great for very advanced students because they have the necessary schemas to build new and effective solutions to more complex problem. However, novices and beginners do not have the requisite knowledge base to figure most things out on their own. They need a coach because they don't know what they don't know. Knowledge compounds so the more you know the more you can know. If a student knows very little, then they can only learn a little bit. What Craig is doing is solid Direct Instruction that is grounded in specific situations and authentic scenarios. Great coach.
