The Reason People Don't Improve In Jiu-Jitsu (Episode 406)

Mar 16th, 2026 10:30 AM

On this episode, Chewy and Eugene discuss the main reason people don't improve in BJJ. We discuss an idea from the Jiu-Jitsu "GOAT" Roger Gracie, who shares the idea of why people don't improve in BJJ. His thoughts are that most people don't spend enough time developing their techniques and move on to learning different techniques too quickly. We chat about the process of developing your techniques, advice for BJJ hobbyists, using a "common place journal," how to learn information, how to use instructionals, reverse engineering your techniques, why you should build off your current techniques, how to avoid doing a technique too much, why you should fix areas where you struggle, how has social media has impacted Jiu-Jitsu, and what are metrics for good social media content.
