Recently I did a video about Half Guard and getting out of a flattened out situation. Many of the comments in that video said the technique was helpful. But I did have 1 that said the video was too complicated.

In the comments section Assaf wrote: “Way too complicated. I got lost. Can you break it down to separate videos. One technique per video. And slower. This is fundamentals. This is where I always get lost. I’m so bad with all these rules. Show each rule. Don’t just say the rule. Please. Thank you 🙏”

So I wanted to do this video to share with Assaf, and anyone like him, how I digest information and fight against things being overcomplicated.

In this video I’ll share the key habit which is rewatching and re-attempting to put the information to use over and over again. I won’t watch a video once. I’ll watch it over and over again for multiple days. I’ll become almost obsessed with that technique until I either get it working or decide to move on.

Hopefully the story I share in the video illustrates this point well enough and helps you with your own consumption of BJJ instructional videos.

Btw, here is the Half Guard video I referenced in case you want to watch it:

Thanks for watching.
