About this episode
Everyone hates stalling—until they realize it’s actually strategy. In this episode, I(@thejoshmckinney) breaks down why the best competitors know when to slow the game down, how to use the clock as a weapon, and why “winning is winning” (shoutout Dom Toretto). Learn how to control pace, protect your energy, and make less Jiu-Jitsu happen when it matters most.
🎙️ What You’ll Learn:
The real definition of strategy in Jiu-Jitsu
How to manage limited resources (energy, grips, time)
Why stalling exists in every clock-based sport
How to practice and defend against stalling
- The mindset shift that separates winners from “moral victors”
