How Practicing Becomes WINNING | Competition Advice

[@Tingman]

I’ve had such similar thoughts and frustrations as you with 3x3. I know it has to do with nerves because I don’t get it with any other event that I don’t care as much about. I try to go easy on myself because I actually think luck is a big factor - how my fingers are feeling on the day, the environment (noise, temp), the time of day… but certainly it doesn’t take much to get myself out of “flow state”. Really appreciate your tips here but most of all your positive attitude, whether or not you did well. Thanks Brody.

[@CubingWithHappiness]

Hi Tingman, I love your videos

[@KS-qd5fx]

Wait I thought you didn’t believe in luck?

[@5tuffz]

This is so relatable. I feel that I turn a lot worse in comps cuz I'm constantly thinking about how I can mess up. Thanks for the advice and I'll for sure use it next time I compete!

[@jasonb.lassner5660]

Great video Brody! I'd like to add that feeling revved up before an important performance is a sign that you DO care about the result. As Brody says in the video, there's no point in trying to pretend that you don't care. Even though it's counter-intuitive, you might even try embracing the fact that it's important to you. This will motivate you to prepare and plan in advance--although don't overdo it--and then when it's time to perform you will know that you've done everything you can. Just remember that great preparation and planning don't guarantee positive results. Take ownership of what you can control and let go of the rest.

I have never watched your channel before but really admire your attitude and impressed with your solves. I am probably older than your dad and just learned how to solve Roux and CFOP but still above 2 minutes LOL. Brain and fingers don’t work as quick as they used to, but I still enjoy the solving. Thanks and subbed.

[@wrmmaglev6620]

Try and learn 2 1-look plls q day and soon you will know full pll so you don’t need to do an alg for coners

[@curiousNic]

The Return of BrodytheCuber is my favorite sequel. Great to have you back! And congrats to BrodytheWinner.

[@RamThakkar]

So nice to see this, I always enjoy these competition commentary videos! Congrats on the win and the recent PRs at PAWS! :)

[@ZekeMackay]

How to not win competitions: compete with you. I’ve tried it myself, works every time

[@BrodytheCuber]

You’ve definitely got a higher peak skill than I do. Your win is coming soon for sure!

[@catholiccubing]

I was at that comp. Minnesota cube days. Zeke got a fair 5 second solve

[@mccardrixx5289]

Big congrats on your new 7.31 PR avg Brody !!!! You've deserved this so so much dude ^^

[@JudeStradtner]

I can definitely relate to the nerves. Nerves have ruined my 3x3 results many times. At my last comp, I was super nervous and this was the first time I got into the finals, my first solve was a DNF (didn’t start the timer 😭) After that, I got really mad and during the next solve my turning was trash, I got a pop and ended up with a 1 minute solve. 🤦‍♂️ Anyways, I told my self that it really didn’t matter any more, and I really wasn’t mad or nervous anymore. My last solve was a 11.06 PR single! The only reason that I got that PR was because I truly didn’t care. Sorry for rambling on. Thanks for this video and I can’t wait to see what’s coming up next from you. My favorite cuber is back!

Very Intresting video. Definitely gonna be helping a lot in the future. Congrats on your win brody. Keep uploading!

Congrats on the competition win! Nice to see you back. -Cubicle Hoodie Guy

[@kraispeedcubing]

Be honest with yourself about how much you care. If you don't care then whatever, but if you do care, then set yourself up to succeed, and if you can't, manage yourself to expectations. Most importantly, practice the way you'll compete, and make sure you will going to compete the way you practice. -Brody the Cuber This is very motivational, and will greatly help me for my first comp. Congratulations and Good job, Brody!! ♥️

[@SKID69920]

Brody, not only did this help me but also was a entertaining video! Good job!

[@AGENT-PUGZ]

Brody it’s been a while and thx a lot I’ve been using the tips you gave me, I’ve went from sub 40 to sub 30, next goal is sub 20

[@CubeCentral]

Nice to see you back!! Awesome vid too and some great advice!

[@sleepycuber]

Welcome back Brody. I've always watched your vids and love your tuition. Thanks.

[@mishelrasul3109]

Thank you so much, Brody! I am going to my 2nd ever comp in a little less than a month, and my times dropped almost half to what I had in 2022, on the comp. (I was 9 or 10), now I'm 11. Thank you so much again I am practicing hard and you made my day! Awesome tips, and I had a frickin' 48 in comp last time because of nerves (I averaged sub 38 by then). Your tutorials helped me to go to almost full PLL, about to go and watch your Ra and Rb perm tutorials, and Gs, too. Bye! Ps I subbed

[@Secret_7.26]

I have a comp in a month and I have been doing practice for OH and 3x3. The events I am doing in the comp

[@SkibidiManJames]

I WAS AT THIS COMPETITION. Amazing to meet you!

[@gtcubes]

Brody's back!!! Love your competition advice videos. I'll definitely put this to use at my comp in a few weeks.

[@stellacuber2559]

Congratulations on your win!!!!

[@naturalcuber7142]

Nice to see you back. You Rock Man!

[@marbleminion]

Moral of the story is: pray for Brian Johnson not to show up at your competition.

[@shifu1219]

I got to hang out with you at this competition, you had a really impressive preformance in 3x3, despite talking about much you loved oh

[@Leonardo-cw1dd]

yo welcome back brody cant wait to watch more vids this summer

[@trentongd6271]

Something like this happened to me just a few weeks ago at Utah’s CGE 2022. Absolutely 0 practice led to me not care and have no nerves and I ended up getting my 2nd best 3x3 average ever in finals

[@CubeLord420]

Great to see you back Brody! I hope that some time in the future we’ll meet at a comp. Keep up the great averages!💪

[@joeshmo546]

One thing I find helps with turning is loosening yr grip on the cube which reduces lockups.

[@wjsgamer]

I got to meet Brody at the Columbus competition. Pretty chill dude, would love to be roommates with him

[@fmga]

[@jamessslurpland9893]

[@mileswalcott6477]

Nothing, you just need practice

[@Feraminecarts]

Your experience is similar to one of jperm's videos,"how I got better after not practicing" or something along those lines

[@BrodytheCuber]

That’s interesting! I haven’t seen that video but I’ll have to check it out!

[@Feraminecarts]

@@BrodytheCuber yeah, Maybe this is a thing that can happen to everyone,could be a topic of discussion🤔

[@ephraimsension]

Nice

Top tip: STOP LYING TO YOURSELF!!!

[@wjsgamer]

Very nice thumbnail, however it doesn't really compare to How to Win with Two Bishops

[@joviscomp]

you kinda look like young sheldon in this vid

[@whatdoiputhere224]

Here’s a tip: don’t break your arm 3 weeks before your competition.

[@ZAINCUBING]

Good

[@anthonycubechester8961]

bring back the hat

[@BrodytheCuber]

I’ll do it after I get sub 7

[@anthonycubechester8961]

👍👍

[@SenseiBacon1029]

Remember you made oll with only 2 algorithms than can you make pll with only 2 or 4 algorithms?

[@SenseiBacon1029]

Please :))
