Are you giving it your all during your jiu-jitsu sparring sessions, but not sure why you're not noticing any improvements? This episode of our podcast might be a game-changer for you. We dive into the question that's been bugging many martial arts enthusiasts - can you really go 100% during training and still learn effectively? We take you through our theory that jiu-jitsu training, much like any form of learning, involves various pillars and categories that require a balance rather than a full-throttle approach. You'll learn about the risks of focusing solely on winning rather than pushing yourself to be vulnerable, to fail, and ultimately grow.

Think of jiu-jitsu as a classroom. Constant testing without new information acquisition leads to lower success rates. We explain why understanding and comprehending new information before testing them is vital. We also delve into the dangers of going all out during training, leading to possible injuries, which are contrary to the philosophy of jiu-jitsu. Hear us out as we discuss why it's essential to leave the mats each day without any physical setbacks, all while having a smile on your face. This episode will surely shift your perspective on training, helping you achieve a balance between learning, discovering, growing, and enjoying the sport of jiu-jitsu. So, tune in and let's start this enlightening conversation!

*sniff, sniff* Does anyone smell that? The overwhelming stench of bullsh*t up in here?

If you’re tuning in, get ready for a loving b*tch slap.

I’m talking about excuses and while there are many aromas *see my book or DM me on Insta for more on that*. The particular one I've seen clouding up the room lately? Victim mentality.

That energy (BIG VIC ENERGY) that gets you stuck in those woe-is-me stories and holds you back from meeting your challenges.

It’s actually when we are pushed to our physical limits when we find out our true reactions, so what’s yours?

If you wanna meet your goals, you're gonna have to get uncomfortable. I know I know, you’re cozy in that bed made of soft excuses. But despite what you’re telling yourself, that's the opposite of self-compassion.

Self-compassion is actually allowing yourself to grow and accept the challenge. That’s Hero Energy.

So lean in to find out what to look for when you're approaching victim energy, and how to stop it in its tracks!

 I promise it won’t hurt (actually no. I don’t.)

What’s Inside:
—A loving b*tch slap from Oognah.
—How to sniff out the victim energy that's holding you back.
—Self-compassion is the opposite of excuse-making energy.
—How to step into your hero energy.

What thoughts happen when you meet you’re pushed to your physical limits? How are you gonna beat victim energy?
