Episode notes
Welcome to another episode of Daily Dose of the Pod with your host, Dave, on Social BJJ! In this episode, we explore a common question in jiu-jitsu: "Does strength matter?" Dave dives deep into the balance between strength, technique, and speed, and how they all play a role in becoming a well-rounded grappler.
Key Points Discussed:
- Strength and Technique: Strength is often seen as secondary to technique, but Dave argues that it's an essential part of jiu-jitsu. He shares examples of how strong opponents have challenged his technique and emphasizes the importance of developing both.
- Balancing Attributes: The "big three" in jiu-jitsu—strength, speed, and technique—must work together. Without balance, a grappler may struggle against certain opponents.
