Im always in Deliberate Practice mode by virtue of my white belt.
Funny
excellent Keenan!! Thank you so much for this video!!
Is hitting plateaus a normal thing in bjj? I'm a third stripe white belt (6 months in) and I've recently seemed to hit this wall out of nowhere. I was focusing on staying calm during rolls, since I leaned more towards aggression and strength instead of technique. Now however I have the opposite problem, not only am I too calm but I seem to have hit a wall. Opponents I was able to beat a few weeks ago are now fighting me equally or even winning. I train 5 days a week and have tried to use deliberate practice (though I forget while rolling) but I've been getting frustrated with myself by seemingly standing still while everyone else eclipses me
lol youve been training for 6 months and youre worried about plateaus? ngmi
3 stripes within 6 months, jeez dude fairs.
Your gym has stripes?
There's a great book about deliberate practice in sports and other fields called "Talent is overrated" by Geoff Colvin.
This is great, I usually focus on one thing during training, e.g.- guard, passing, triangles, etc.. but I like the idea of having one focus for each aspect better. Kind of opens things up a bit more
I've done this a few times and it's incredibly how the technics stick in your brain. After that you tend to have a more robust sense of when to throw those moves.. Nice content K!
This type of training has helped my game so much. Coming from a wrestling background so I forced myself to really play z-guard for example constantly for months and now it's my A game on bottom. Great advice. 👌
I've been doing this accidentally by being 5'3 and only having success with butterfly guard and nothing else
lol, small guy blues - me too. any tips for always being the small guy - things that have helped you out?
@@isaacwinton use your mobility, it's almost just as much of an advantage as weight if you know how to use it.
Go for higher percentage submissions like the rear naked choke
Use your small frame to your advantage when escaping. I've found that I actually have a much easier time escaping Submissions than bigger guys by virtue of being a smaller target
Sometimes I generally say. “Today I’m working towards everyone’s back” or something like that. But not specific movements. I’ll give that a try also
Thanks for the reminder, brother! 🥋🙏😉
Awesome concept video! My coach has been preaching this to us a lot and I started adapting it. I love the shameless plugs for Miha's DVD also!
Knowing what your want to do is important, in open rolls I would also suggest a "red light" move to each component for intermediates players. You aim for the "green light" move, when you are being shut down (its a red light), you don't force it, you move to the opposite attack that compliments the first. You deliberately drill the green light move however. Then you flip them. The reason why, is that if you are completely single minded on one outcome, you will lose some ability to be dynamic and use some game sense. When you are advanced, then you will naturally try to open the attack by threating others, beginners wont. I should not that also knowing the names of moves helps Deliberate Practice. Even make you own names up.
Read ‘Peak’ by Robert Pool.... deals with deliberate and purposeful practice.....very good read
As a coach this is the way I run my Class. One gameplan then and additional pass and sweep from a position of the day. The position is different for each person. Then they are trying to hit each stage of their gameplan live in chunks.. so the takedown... then the pass.. then the position and then the submission. Its a different path if they choose to pull obviously. Then the last set is going from an additional position and trying to get back to the gameplan.
if you ever practice bjj or anything else, this is the greatest advice you could follow. thanks Keenan
This is awesome! I’m training like this right now with my friend ( a BJJ black belt) . And I’m getting better at escaping HIS arm bars. Thanks, Professor!🤙🏻🥋😎
GAURD 2:10
For me this is most useful in specific training. If going only for very specific moves during live rolls, especially when I was lower belt, I would end up in bad positions a lot. So I also like to have an escape I'm working on too otherwise early on this method can be rather disheartening.
There is a book called Peak by Dr. Anders Ericsson (he is an expert on what makes people experts) that explains this principle. Thank you for applying it to our sport!
This is awesome, deliberately practicing brings a lot of clarity as you mention
I want to say I first heard about deliberate practice from Jocko or Gordon...don't remember. It has been a pivotal tool in my jiujitsu for about 8 months. I think about what I am working on prior to go training and I've found it accelerated my skill refinement/acquisition.
Logic received. Motivation engaged! Wisdom has that ring of truth to it when you first hear it. Thank you Keenan.
I disagree that this type of training isn't fun. When I first started, I didn't know shit and couldn't remember the
10 moves different people showed me in a single day. So, once I implemented this, I felt my rolling finally had more concrete purpose, and became funner.
As a white belt, I’m confused on how to do this. I generally just try to absorb the technique that my coach teaches and try to do that during free rolling. I don’t feel like I have enough of a base in BJJ to do something like this
Even after watching this Video, I keep watching it for almost a year now... for the sick Beats. Is it still deliberate practice to just keep listening to the beat 😂
I seriously would love to know the title of the music when the sparring starts?!?
Please make more of these, I don’t have my first stripe yet but this will change my game forever !!!
Lmao. Idk if you're serious but this sounds hilarious
@@shadymilkman443 rude
@@shadymilkman443 I have no stripes but ill gladly put you in a lock :)
Haha dork
@@shonnyboyy5284 oh no! a nerd called me a dork :(
Camera guy, what's up ? (angle, focusing, shakes)
This is very distracting
A simpler way is just find what you like doing, and deliberately don't do that anymore for awhile lol. Then when you find something you like again and it's effective, stop it and do a different thing again.
Great content mate, but ur camera man was making me ill...get him some media training please
This is so helpful. Thank you for this. 🤙
I already take this approach, but probably not as directly. I always have 2-3 specific things I want to try to aim for success with in a period of training - say over a month - where I will aim to enter specific guards or passes throughout the free sparring rounds for the night. Over time I have found that some of these become so well refined in my own actions that I find myself going to them without even thinking at times, and I have to back out and reset something else in order to avoid an unintentional rut of sorts. Its a great way to improve on your weaknesses though and I encourage all our lower belt levels to take a similar approach to their training early in their journey. Great video.
Deliberate training? 🤦 Isn't this drilling it, then shark thanking it, then hitting in love rolls??? 😂
That's really awesome, I really share your view on this and I practice this myself. Do you find value in taping those training sessions? And does it help you to refine your techniques or is it spending too much time for very few returns?
Was that "drilling makes you a robot" a subtle dig at the Miyao brothers?
Hey Keenan, I found this Video incredible helpful and I would love to see/hear more of you talking about general ideas about JJ. I think it's the same idea with JJ Technique as it is with learning. Don't just hand out pieces of the puzzle give the student techniques to solve the puzzle ;) Regards!
I was thinking about this years ago. I would go in and try to only do 2 or 3 things only. Great details Keenan and I love you showing how you attempted it in rolling. This great. Thank you.
Great video! I am 8 month white belt and still figuring out how to get the most out of every class. Occassionally I try to focus on a submission of the day, a specific pass.. It sure helps! Otherwise I tend to go over what I DID'NT do today. I will follow your tip by making a commitment getting this in.
Been doing this for years, it really helps. Only issue I run into is that my students get mad when I keep going for the same movies and getting them.
sounds like a good problem to have :) could you make them work on strong counters/defence?
@@BlockheadJiujitsu they don't see it that way. Lol.
@@mastermindmartialarts they just need to chill lol
@@stupidandboot4507 agreed. lol
this was such a helpful video. Thanks
"how do you spell deliberate" you scored my like right there lol
I think guard should be spelled with the “a” first too

Been reading more James Clear?
2:43 you will hear a squeaky sound…😂
Thank you for sharing.
Thanks dude this helps a lot
Love the concept focus.
Do you have a home bjj gym that you go to?
Keenan is the frat bro of bjj
keep the content coming
great stuff, nicely demonstrated too- thanks Keenan 👍🏼👍🏼
It’s all common sense and very simple, i have been doing this for while without even knowing what i was doing… i need to improve this, so i will try to do it tonight every time i can….but you put it into a system which makes it reproducible and purposeful… i only going to try this tonight when rolling, no only iam gonna do it if the conditions happen but iam gonna “forced” it even if the conditions are not optimal, basically Iam gonna expose myself to failure so i can learn from it…
Does that even apply for me ?
We usually start training by waeming up, learning a technique, drilling that with a partner, and always add new steps to this technique, at the end we do 15 - 20 minutes of rolling.
Should I implement your kind of training (the focusing of takedown, pass, guard) in the rolling part of our training that happens at the end ?
The best thing for my game would be bringing back The Matburn Podcast. Please deliver post-haste.
GOLD
A thumbs down srsly.... ooookay... ppl cmon... great methodology, I used it as well and still do... especially cross collar chokes...keep up the good work...
?
First two minutes are a waste of time he spent trying to be funny so yeah he can get a downer for that alone my dude
@@badxradxandy to each their own ... missing the point... go train...
@@rolandmalone5431 just came back from the gym my dude. Just saying why someone might dislike this video
@@badxradxandy go train jiu-jitsu im not ur dude...
as a baby blue belt, this is exactly what I've started to do. I pick a few techniques that I want to hit and stick to them until I am effective at them.
for deliberate practice do you change your focus area every session or do you keep the same focus area technique/positions for a while?
So this is pretty much similar to situational rolling, but only one person allowed to work on a set of moves.
I find it interesting that BJJ videos never have any dislikes. To me it's testament to how people that practice the art are largely decent, polite people
Thanx for sharing. I do this in another way: I set a goal for practice for every week and some techs I focus on them for a longer time, and it pays off. But am gonna definetly put down a matrix for the wole month or two and work on it for 80% of my practice and drilling time. Keep up the good work keenan 👍
Usually, I would pick two submissions, one passing and one escape move and try to hit it within that one week. If I got to the point where I got those whenever I wanted, then I’ll pick new things to work on, based on what I felt lacking in those rolls during the one week period. It could be that I’m in a advantageous position but I don’t know any systems from that position, or I couldn’t escape a position because I don’t understand the concept.
I already figured this out a little while back haha so happy to hear you mention this too.. intentionally going in to class with specific moves lined up to hit during training. Sweet.
Been doing something similar, glad to see it's something you think adds benefit. Love choosing a particular escape or sweep and submission combo to practice with each class.
During sparring pick out a certain technique to use, putting on yourself in the position to use it
Cool instrumentals. Who's the composer?
Brilliant honest instruction and training and a great concept for guiding your training- thank you 🙏
Excellent video Keenan. Thank you. I like the concept. 👍
i like the idea of lining up your shot. prep and focus.
This is a great video and thanks for your time!
Awesome - gonna try this out :-)
Кинан, привет! Люблю смотреть твои видимо, но английский язык не твоё. На русском ты бы больше смог объяснить) мне точно)
how would you measure your success for deliberate practice? and what if you were trying to go for collar chokes but couldn't actually finish any of them. would you keep going for collar chokes for the rest of the week, month? or take a break and come back to those later? Not asking for a concrete answer, just curious about what your thoughts are.
I focused on triangles it took about 3 months of training before i was having a high percentage of finishes with them before that I got my guard passed a lot lol.
The thing is by not hitting them you know what the fault is. So can fix it
Just showing up is seriously 90 % of life
I'll try this when my wife lets me train again. Post Pandemic :(
That was great thank you
What’s the takedown at 7:15 called
1 is single leg with ouchi gari (major inner reap) finish, 2nd is footsweep to osoto gari (major outer reap)
How do we balance putting this method in practice at the same time trying to land the move that the coach explained that day?
By finding a gym that teaches concepts more than techniques 🦄
You don't have to implement all the techniques your coach explains, not all of them are going to fit your game
Awesome concept! I usually do this but only with moves I'm comfortable doing...A game stuff but now I know I can use it to work on my weaknesses.
Thank you for this. I feel like I do this but for shorter spurts like a week or 2. I haven't tried to hit the same 3 techniques for a month straight. Love the more conceptual videos!
Thank you for talking at 1.5 speed so I don't have to bother changing my setting 🫡
