It's not like... Like, you can't squat 12 hours a day, 350 pounds.
Your body will break down.
But you can go over positions over and over and over and over again until they're in muscle memory, but you're not doing them at full strength, right?
So, like, if you're rolling, right?
So, say if you're doing drills...
you would set up like a guard pass.
When you're doing a guard pass, you would tell the person, lightly resist, and I'm going to put light pressure on you.
And you go over that position, knee shield, pass, hip into it, here's the counter, on the counter, darts, go for the darts, the person defends the darts, roll, take the back.
And just do that over and over and over again.
And it's like completely ingrained in your body.
But it's so interesting to see a super intelligent person apply that intelligence to jiu-jitsu.
