Jocko Podcast 378: If You Want to Be a Champion, You Can't Just Lie Around Sleeping. "Kimura".

Underground Premium Content: www.jockounderground.com/subs...
Masahiko Kimura (木村 政彦, Kimura Masahiko, September 10, 1917 - April 18, 1993) was a Japanese judoka and professional wrestler who is widely considered one of the greatest judoka of all time.[1][2][3] He won the All-Japan Judo Championships three times in a row for the first time in history and had never lost a judo match from 1936 to 1950. An author said," In the history of judo, no one is the strongest before Kimura and no one is the strongest after Kimura."[4] He has often been described as the strongest judoka in history.[5] In submission grappling, the reverse ude-garami arm lock is often called the "Kimura",[6] due to his famous victory over Gracie jiu-jitsu founder Hélio Gracie. In the Japanese professional wrestling world, he is known for the controversial match he had with Rikidōzan.

Normal Americans United. I think we need ai jocko americanization reprogramming. Basically, robot jocko to read to us and hold the line. Ya not scared of robots taking over. Jocko is on OUR side. Normal American side. Default Get Some. Love and respect to all Normal Americans. It's all on us. We got this. America is ours. I didn't serve in the military, but I did serve 18 months in prison and many more in county jail, and what I've learned is this. There is good and bad in every person as well as good and bad in every group, so generalizations are usually counterproductive. Mindset matters.

Thank you for the Information, Sir! Didint know, that there are several meanings and conditions to that. When i trained Judo, Ippon meant like One Point in the Tournaments. But that only happend to appear, when your opponent gave up or landed on straight his back after a throw. I wish everybody a good hard workout and nice time. Cheers Mates.

Jocko, I tested for seals in late 80's, didn't make it which upon reflection is a good thing. But I've wondered for a long time, how many try 3 times to pass the fitness test before passing? I passed on my third try, but had other medical things going on. Love your life advice.

[@indivisible885]

Hearing about this man and his story, reaffirms my respect and admiration for japanese culture. I can't easily put into words why, but I've always had an affinity for the Japanese people. Kimura seems to embody the Japanese warrior spirit. It'd be hard not to respect him

[@1waveOrg]

Haha I LOVE this Title; feel like I needed to Hear-See This ❤

[@Patrick-sh9tt]

What’s great about Jocko is he remembers how obscured in mysticism martial arts were only a few decades ago. Now we compare techniques, back then we were comparing whole arts, systems and approaches. It’s similar to growing up in the pre-digital as opposed to digital age..it’s probably really difficult for younger people to understand how the world worked prior to iPhones, Netflix and all that jazz. In this context, the Gracies and Jiu Jitsu played a massive role. What that role is today is under dispute by people who like to rewrite history but back then they changed the whole game. Of course others were doing similar but the difference is that the Gracies and later UFC changed the culture, their impact penetrated the entire world of martial arts. Nobody is saying they were invincible or any of that nonsense, it’s simply that they challenged all the old ideas and exposed them for everyone to see.

[@charleslamb6500]

it's difficult to define champions, or because they tend to be quiet different, one could talk of chefs, postal workers, soldiers, politicians, or doctors that are champions at what they do, however their training is quite different, what they want, goals, or motivations however, and one could talk of champion culture, or try and notice what makes them different from achievers, the greats, or even ultimate performers -- a champion tends to be good at something, or several things, however perhaps also life, culture, or self - realization, or that one is not a champion less a certain holistic perspective, or sense of succes -- champions are singularly, or totally good at something -- they tend to have their own motivations, or perhaps religion, or standards, or that they follow no rules, training, or what people know, or should comprehend, or that one of their secrets is simply how much, effective, or supreme their training is, efforts to learn, to stand victorious -- they tend to grapple with religion, or great questions, or what fuels, or serves is the ultimate questions of humanity, or politics, or what they could be, where a person could go, or to defeat, or shatter their own sense of limitations 1. champions are more than one things, or discipline 2. they tend to be good at life, or themselves 3. their training only they understand 4. quest to be an ultimate citizen

[@Kikuyo2]

Actually Judo is just a modern time Jiu-Jitsu. When Japan became modernized in 19th century and swords became obsolete, martial arts had to adapt as well. Jiu-Jitsu deemed too dangerous with locking technique’s and with Japanese mentality injuries was common. Kano jigoro, a Jiu-Jitsu practitioner invented judo. In judo you could practice sparring with much less injuries. It even beat Jiu-Jitsu in a team match, to be acknowledged as Tokyo police self defense. Judokas advantage was their physicality and more experience in sparring sessions. Then judo became a sport and Jiu-Jitsu techniques were abandoned. Then Helios Gracie resurrected Jiu-Jitsu. Even now, a lot Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu schools lack physical drills, but it seems slowly changing. A pity that u haven’t interviewed Gene Lebell, pioneer of American judo and stunt man. Who humbled Bruce Lee with grappling, but ironically Bruce Lee made striking popular.

Jocko, Echo Charles should I consider trining BJJ at 53 out of shape?

[@ib1ray]

Of course! If you have the time and can work with injuries like pulled muscles. It will get you in shape pretty quick. Make sure to have a good warm up and know your limits. Tap quickly and often. Also let people know that you don't know much and you're a beginner before you till with each person. This is something you can go hard or soft, it's up to you.

I respect Kimura and all for his contribution to martial arts, but some of those training stories are setting off my bullshit detector. He sure as shit wasn't snapping maple trees by practicing throws. It's like Ricksons alleged 400-0 record. Some folks in the martial arts community really like to engage in hero worship a little too much

can you prove that ??? Kimura was a the real deal not like Rickson's a lot of his "folk tales" are legit
