How to Know What Your Opponent is Going to Do Next, with Thomas Lisboa

[@ThomasLisboa]

Thank you Stephen for allows me to share my jiu jitsu and some of my mindset as a teacher with you. I really appreciate that! Until next time!

My wife said something strange to me that made me pause. I record all of my rolls and post them to KZbin. After watching me roll with one of the guys, she said he was a Kinetic psychic. I'll admit, he was a step ahead of me every time I tried to move or adjust. She also noticed that with some guys, I easily control them. However, with others, they control me just as easily. I thought about it for a bit and I realized that with more advanced guys I always feel off balance when facing them. As a purple belt, I can tell the difference between muscle, technique, etc., but I can usually tell when I touch someone if I am going to out grapple them or not.

Excellent tips. It’s been on my mind lately about how to recognize, in the middle of grappling what my opponent may be up to.

Stephan always with the good questions

Great 👍🏼 advice - we train exactly like this at our gym - most of the blue belts & above are chaining moves & fakes together & we all do specific training drills live - good instructors - I love, “you develop by getting smashed...” 😁

touch tells everything. It's whether or not you can "feel" that matters. Takes a LONG time....Rickson calls them "invisible" techniques.

[@ThomasLisboa]

Everyone should study some master Rickson techniques and mindset, he is a truly inspiration!

i like how he says, how do you develop this? getting smashed!!!!! i mean were always looking for the secret shortcut but sometimes. its just putting in the time and consistency,.

Hello, Stephan! I watch periodically your video lessons, I liked the batman kimono, what size of kimono do you have? Thank you in advance

Grappling and fighting in general is a physical chess game!

[@DoctorYianni]

William Fitzner I disagree with that. Chess signifies I go, you go, I go etc...How abt this...I go, I go, I go, and then maybe I give you a chance to go. This is how Marcelo Garcia describes it. That’s the ideal of course.

You have been featuring a lot of Alliance guys. Is your gym an affiliate?
