They discuss how this training style involves strategic choices in sparring partners, prioritizing less challenging opponents to get a good workout without the intense competition. Shintaro shares his personal experience transitioning from high-frequency training to a more sporadic schedule due to life commitments and how "Still Got It" training has helped him stay in the game. The conversation includes practical tips for managing training intensity, balancing ego and self-preservation, and adapting grappling practice to different life stages and priorities. Whether you're an occasional grappler or a weekend warrior, this episode offers valuable insights for keeping your skills sharp without burning out.
