Just Jiu Jitsu

Kroyler and Andrew talk about the history of closed guard. They experience some technical difficulties and do their best to smoothly transition to closed guard technique. They finish up the episode on the topic of iconic guard practitioners.

Kroyler shoots down Andrew’s new promotional idea. Different types of chokes are discussed. We learn about the evolution of chokes through history. Lastly, Krolyer walks us through the rear naked choke and guillotine.

In episode three we start off with important issues like how to maintain the image of professionalism in podcasting and then quickly fail in our endeavor. We’re then saved by our main topic of discussion: Carlos Gracie. Talking about this legend brings some class back to the show and makes it worth your time….maybe.

From shoulders to heels, we discuss submissions that utilize manipulating the joints. Touching on the mechanics of specific locks, learning about their history, and understanding trends in jiu jitsu, this episode’s conversation goes all over the board.

Before we start dissecting and examining Jiu Jitsu, we need to know who will be holding the scalpel. This episode introduces us to Kroyler Gracie, our resident expert. Co-host, Andrew Desimone, talks with Kroyler about his background and the role Jiu Jitsu plays in his life.
