from I Suck At Jiu Jitsu Show · host Josh McKinney
This episode is the exact system I used to help students go from white belt to blue belt in months, not years.After 18+ years of training and coaching, I realized something:👉 Most people are training wrong.👉 And it’s why they get better WAY slower than they should.So in this episode, I break down the 3-step formula to learn Jiu-Jitsu 10x faster. This is a system I’ve refined over years of coaching and competition.This is the same framework behind “Master Any Position in 6 Weeks”… but simplified so you can apply it immediately.Master Any Position in 6 Weeks: https://www.simplifyingjiujitsu.com/6Greatest Guard Passing Seminar Ever: https://youtu.be/aDAwqBVoDP4Jiu-Jitsu for Imbeciles, feat.
