A listener question starts a long discussion on Omoplatas.

We’ve mentioned this legend before and this week we finally devote an episode to Fernando Augusto, aka Terere!

Time to open up the listener mail bag once more!

This week Kroyler is forced to talk about himself. Consider this a forced unofficial autobiography.

In this episode we discuss:

How realistic are gi techniques on street clothing?

What ratio should a beginner have for time spent on basic techniques vs advanced techniques?

We discuss who would win a hypothetical grappling match between Khabib and Nate Diaz

What is Sambo?

Have you seen Vladimir Putin shirtless on a horse?

Thanks to listener Alexy for asking questions that consume all of the conversation in this episode. We cover:

Why do you see more kimuras than americanas in jiu jitsu and MMA?

How do you attack a large joint like a hip?

Is the Suloev stretch damaging the hamstring or knee?

What is Kroyler’s opinion of Nick Diaz’s ground game?

We cover a little bit of everything in this episode:

• Listener correction

• John Danaher moves to Puerto Rico

• How is COVID affecting the current state of jiu jitsu

• Has Kroyler ever felt like hanging up his belt

• What muscle groups are most important for bjj

To wrap up our Anatomy of the Attack series, the last episode covers the spine, hips, knees and ankles.

It’s part two of our attack series and this week we’re focusing on elbows and wrists!

All of the submissions in jiu jitsu target areas of the body that have their own physical traits and mechanics. In this episode we discuss the importance of understanding the neck and shoulders.
