[@jackyonezuka7946]

Wow! This was awesome! I learned so such just from watching this once. I have to watch this like 5 more times now so all this information sinks in. Thanks for breaking down my match. I really appreciate it.

[@frankgulino767]

Great to see the Hudson Yudanshakai so well represented. And thanks for the submission. There is so much great coaching advice, the rest of us can benefit from it.

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

You're welcome Jack! You have a bright future keep it up!

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

Thanks Frank! I'm glad you find value in this type of content!

[@jaehwan123]

Great match, Jack!

[@holdenmuganda97]

Haha Jack I see you getting that recognition lol!!

[@kombijr]

Instead of the “silencer,” they should have called you the “Machine.” Great commentary as always. 🤙 🥋

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

LOL. I might have to do a video on where that name came from.

[@OlivierTravers]

@@TravisStevensgrappling "silencer" with air aquotes, given the loud snoring dog!

[@escraonjudoju-jitsuolivier6313]

Very accurate as usual , interested by the o uchi drop seoi combo . thanks again sensei

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

It's a combination that has gained a lot in popularity in the last few years. The Brazilian Judoka Ketadi (I spelled that wrong for sure) did it a lot in his 2012 run.

[@SasakiKojiro7]

Awesome breakdown Travis. Thanks again for all the weekly content. Really helps keep me focused and motivated.

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

My pleasure Sasaki!

[@alanIrl99]

These break down videos are really good for the kind of player who has good technique, but struggles to be effective in hard tandoori and tournaments. Keep them coming - please :)

[@bochan207]

Your dog lol ZZZzzzzzzzz...snoreeeee. Great video. As someone who wants to get better at Tai Otoshi, Kosoto or Ouchi first works well I think. I have a problem feeling where the other persons momentum is going though, and the timing gets off. I guess its something you get used to? Tai Otoshi to the opponents side (as opposed to forward) works well if you can pull it off too...Thanks!

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

Yeah the Bulldog breed tends to snore like crazy!

[@maximkucan3775]

Thank you for this great analisys! I think I'm lesrning a lot watchin it! Big Hug from Spain!

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

Awesome! And I hope you're staying safe in Spain!

[@chrismaks2518]

Attack until he goes down, or newaza...excellent mind set. Will do.

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

👍👍👍

[@noturnleftunstoned72]

Really great analysis. HONEST and thoughtful. BTW, who the hell is snoring!! Lol.

[@scottbrady2301]

I heard that too... sounds like a big old pitbull

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

LMAO my dog Trapper. He's and English Bulldog.

[@scottbrady2301]

Is that the wife snoring in the background?😆

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

LOL. No it's my Bulldog Trapper. He likes to lay next to me.

[@jaehwan123]

Hi Coach Travis, Great analysis! I have a question that I hope you'll answer tomorrow during the gripping session. It's about distance and physicality. You mention physicality in this video, telling Jack to get more physical, but I don't think you mention distance specifically. It sounds like you're saying that he would have more of an ability to get physical if he stood closer (i.e. at 7:00, you say that he is putting his hips back). Is this correct? So that's basically my question: when you're gripping, how close are you trying to get to the opponent? I finished watching your Ippon series, and you mention pulling your left shoulder back, which keeps the space tight. Usually I've extended shoulder and put my hips back, and it's much harder to fit cleanly with so much distance. It's also much harder to get physical at that distance, since (I think) it's harder to move one way and then change directions. But at the same time, how do you get close and physical without getting attacked and being manhandled yourself? Especially if the guy is bigger, aren't there risks involved? How do you manage that? Thanks!

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

Thats a really good question. I think I should make a video on it because. It changes not only with strength but also height. I'll shoot it this weekend.

[@jaehwan123]

@@TravisStevensgrappling Whenever I see myself recorded, I think to myself: really? My hips are that far back? I don't feel like I'm pulling back that far, but videos don't lie. :) So yes, thanks so much for recording this video!

[@theonobody]

Brilliant analysis as always. I'm actually taking notes of a lot of this stuff you bring up as most of it rings so true. Please keep this up! On an unrelated note, as an idea for a future video it would be great if you dedicated an episode to Judo focus for older athletes. I'm 43, a nikyu (I only recently restarted Judo after a gap of 21 years) and in stellar physical condition but I'm pretty cautious about developing an injury because I don't repair as quickly as I used to; perhaps some things (throws? techniques?) to be more sparing on Just an idea.

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

I like the idea for judo for 40+ It's something a lot of people don't focus on. Maybe I'll show my top drills for people who want to learn judo that are 40+.

[@theonobody]

@@TravisStevensgrappling thanks. Another thing worth pointing out is the emphasis on technique quality rather than raw power and athleticism. Perhaps things like good kuzushi drilling or other drills that develop that sixth sense in randori
