Martial arts doesn’t change your nature, it reveals it.

Let your actions brag for you.

Arrogant instructors eventually hurt their best students when they feel threatened.

I love that jocko just points around the knife like a teacher might point around a pen

*there's plenty of people out there that wear the cloth of God but practice the work of Satan. *

BJJ is becoming like the boxing industry everyone is becoming cocky and think there top fighters. Its quiet sad because both sports are great and idiots have to wreck it.

But have any of you won the secret Kumite in the woods? Where's your trophy Jocko!?!?!?!

Everyone is arrogant until we are rag-dolled.

What about an ex navy seal, priest with a black belt in Ju Jitsu ?

Every time I see a video like this I love my gym even more.

I hate guys that go 100% while we drill during class. If you go as hard as you can, you need to make sure the other person knows you plan to do so. There's no need to injure people just so you can try out a move

Where there's good, you'll find bad too. It's all part of the oneness.

Yes Jocko, they're called Pharisees. Thanks so much for the great video and information . Stay blessed brother ❤.

Well put Jocko. In my time in Karate I have met some extremely well skilled people who are humble and I have met some extremely well skilled people who exercise their ego at everyone else's expense. Seems to me in my experience the most humble ones were also the most well skilled. Your reference to those in clergy is also correct. Whatever you do and whoever you are you can be good and humble for sure.

Jocko you're right. Thank you for mentioning this about not training at a BJJ school when you find one if the instructors are arrogant and disrespectful.

I went to a place and had to quit as the head instructor belittled and treated ppl like shit. Centred them out and yelled at them among other things. I can't believe the Renzo Gracie academy was associated with him. It turned me off from the art all together.

Great insight as always Jocko- OSS 🤙🏾

Speaking my language 🙌🏼❤️

I dont know if the "real" Jocko is reading here or post here, BUT:I read EVERY Sunday before goin to Bed your Book and it gaves me new Motivation

love the switchblade prop...

What are the chances of an analysis of Patrick Henrys Liberty or Death speech for Independence Day? I loved the Henry V Agincourt rundown; lets go for round 2.

“GOOD” my next tattoo

Quiet Professional

Ufc and mma also makes bjj practitioners believe they’re invincible. But in the streets. There are no rules☝️

This applies to all martial arts 🥋

Jocko should get into the burrito business. This man would change the game forever

I can't imagine Jocko tapping his finger to signal submission.

I love it when he said not that smart 😂😂😂

Nice. Im the brokem type of guy using jui jitsu to build myself up. After 4 years im doing judo to and its for fun. I dont mind getting thrown by a 14 year old girl. As long as i figure out what i did wrong or the instructor helps me see my mistake.

I wonder what “supplements” Echo takes, dude has some of the juiciest biceps I’ve seen since Übereem.

Jocko feels that he can get his point across better while holding a knife.

Jaco man you’re carrying a switchblade. The a pitta me of cool ha ha ha.. or so I thought when I was young. I think you’re so dope. I I need people like you guys in my life man.

Amazing

You can try out different gyms and observe what is going on. If the energy is bad then train somewhere else. There are a lot of good gyms. Keep up the good work Jocko and Echo

It's such a shame that there are people who use jj as template to be an arse, any type of martial arts should start with a spiritual understanding rather than understanding of being an arse, jj is such a humbling sport, i love tapping out especially when it's my 11 year old son squeezing or twisting me into submission, he has been doing jj longer than i have & that's what i love about it, the fact that i get humbled weekly, oh it's so awesome

Casually gesturing with a knife as if it's the pen he wrote his notes on. Love it.

Love the way he's swinging a knife in his fingers. Pure commando.

Very good

They didn't really explain *how to deal* with those people. They just talked about them.

Same thing for high school wrestling coaches, some are very cocky and believe they’re invincible 🤣

I have come across a couple people that can do all the moves, but are socially awkward, and never looks at you in the eye...that kinda stuff.

Ive seen one air out gym dirty laundry on Facebook but not naming names. Which then gets everyone gossiping.

Arrogant jerks are always telling people to be humble.

lol love this dude

Two words. Just like the world. I’ve been in that world, and your world, the world of life, walk away, I’m 65 now, its not worth your air 😎

Ev-ery bo-dy, lees go do the Disco dance!

Jocko reminds me of bald Brock Sampson in this.

The sarcastic emphasis on “satan” 😂

Echos biceps have their own zip code

Hey jocko, Im wondering if im the problem here or it was my school. A brown belt and his friends (owner included) found out i go both ways (someone ratted me out) and gave me unrelenting shit for it. I wouldve respected it if it was to my face, but it was to each other two feet away from me. The thing that gets me is it was multiple ppl. That hurt. And ive asked myself constantly if im the problem. I quit there and im looking for a new gym. Thoughts?

Been there.

Hey Jocko, to follow up on your analogy about priests, are there rabbis out there that aren't good people who worship & practice the work of Satan?

Have a good night..

Lol! Why does he have a switchblade in his hand?

I'm just waiting for him to kill something with that knife on his podcast...i know its taunting

An instructor at my gym, a brown-belt, who usually works as a subsitute belittled the shit out of me. He told me I don't know how to fight simply because I was breaking eye-contact. 🤣I was like aight

why does jocko always wear his watch sideways

Coming in as a white belt. There was a guy who was a blue belt and he was a complete dick. You know who the dicks are because they intentionally rip your arm off, when they know they have you! Especially to a newbie. I got his ass in a Ezekiel choke and I got him back real good. I saw his soul leave his body. RIP made him kinda respect me. #Bekind

I'd love to hear peoples thoughts on why these videos are in black and white. I have my own theories, but I want to know what others think.

Jerks are harmless. It's the self righteous picks that do the most damage.

Why is the man jocko just wielding an open stiletto like it's normal? Lol

Dont cranky cranky my necky ok Jocko

Jiu jitsu makes me a better person but not better than everyone else

Arrogant people? Call the brown belt mafia.

I will tend to

No one is good-except God alone. --A good man once said.

Lol why is Jocko just randomly holding a knife?

If dude was pointing a knife at me i'd be pissed

1:08 being in the seals does make someone a good person. I believe a lot of people are of this opinion.

You try to hurt me when we are training partners, we aren’t training partners no mo.

I heard Sanjay was intimidated because Jocko was holding a knife in this podcast

Jocko wants to remind everybody to like, comment and subscribe.

In my experience, the average person does not give 2 shitz how good you/we are at rolling around on the ground, or how good you punch/kick or whatever. Many people think it's strange. Nothing to be arrogant about. I have heard things like..."Why are those guys rolling around on the floor in karate suits?"..."Is that Mexican guy the sensei or whatever??" me: "He's Brazilian, actually."😄😄

right now im training bjj and kung fu. and theres a girl there that is tough asf. and i get a vibe from her that she looks down on the newbies. me personally, i think shes not being humble at all with that attitude. the only reason shes got more experience than them is because she started earlier. stay humble bitches

Why is he holding a knife

There is a fair amount of this actually...some really arrogant dickhead instructors (even BB's) and real jerks on the mats. He's right though -- applies to everything. Cops, clergy, teachers, all can be a holes. It's just surprising because its so humbling...

I train with a guy who is very arrogant. He is on a bunch of steroids and because he can out strength everyone, he thinks that makes him better than everyone at the gym. He always brags about how good he is and how much stronger he is than everyone else. I really can't stand his arrogance, especially when he is essentially just cheating while he is going against people who are all natural and don't juice at all.

Jocko, I want to ask you a question. do you want to say us to have a thick skin though there are people who believe gossip without a proof?

Why is he holding a knife lol

Is this about the Gracies? jajajajja

I'm not comfortable when someone points a knife at me even if its not a big deal (if we're friends) it's just principles. Sorry kinda off topic lol

@jockowillink was wondering what your thoughts were on infidelity? is it the end of a relationship?

It's because they think they are tougher then you. Really that's the bottom line. The end.

I have found most fighters I have talked to are closet bullies. True shit. In any argument or any situation where mere WORDS dont go their way by a small margin... they always trot out the fact that they are tough guys.

1:34 the work of SATAN. Love it

Lol, Jocko casually playing around with his blade reminds me of my time in the military. Usually, the most alpha and high ranking officers would carry with them a knife that they would play around with while they were instructing us

What's the move where my opponent digs his middle finger knuckle into my carotid artery? Is that even a move bro? What do I know, I'm just a white belt.

The irony of this video.

Kobra Kai much...

I'll be real I been stand up fighter my whole life barley started bjj and I be honest It humble the shit outta me in very respectful way .

I keep training with inexperienced people who tell me they like getting beat up and that they want to be humble. It's weird and stupid. If you're humble, you don't have to tell people how humble you are and you don't go around telling others to be humble. And if you like getting beat up, you're misguided and you're putting yourself in danger and patting yourself on the back for it.

This is bs!! I only train at non competitive jj schools where everyone gets a belt at the same time, no submissions, no dominant positions, no contact, No one loses everyone wins and trophies are handed out after every class.

Jocko do you think Jujitsu is better than Judo for self defense?

Jocko you should talk more about current events or just subjects that are interesting that will bring different groups of people to your podcast. Expand your podcast brotha. You have the military, motivation, mindset, skills to have as a human. But now i think you should get new subjects to discuss or different guest. Maybe talk about the universe. Marjuana. The border. Other countrys wars or problems.

Wow! I've only come across one smarmy little shit and he was a blue belt. A very "pretty man" who thought he was Gods gift to women. He'd come and go and eventually quit. In my opinion Jujitsukas should be measured by one standard....There ability and skill on the mat. It helped me beat alcoholism and bought to the surface parts of me which I'm proud of. It literally has something to offer everyone. Injuries normally occur from white belts going to hard to quick, very rarely from higher belts. I'm a huge believer in strong foundations and basics. After nearly 7 years i still drill basics and polish each section of basic techniques. The flowing and relaxed heaviness will come naturally. Good points and post Jocko. Cheers from down under.

I’m currently running into 200lb+ idiot white belts who take pride in trying to smash me, 140lb. They are so happy to tao me. 🤣

Thank you.....Great why do I look up to you as in Ju Jitsu , so in life , jerks , arseholes, whatever or however you describe them, they live a lie! Some great man said, "Humility is the right fear of God" , for me this means conventionally in the so-called real world, "i" exist and tend to take up a position to defend myself from the realization that I am not the man, I am not the big I-am, i am not----, in other words, "me" operating out of my little world view isn't right ,it is always and will be always a tiny little self-created cosmos, God laughs and says in a very quiet whisper "who are you .....Little man" ? Who are you to dictate to, to impose on and interfere with others, who are you to abuse and use them ....Little man ? Let me demonstrate then a terrible thing happens, the big little man is someone no longer. "See little man " ! Now learn to be humble please, otherwise worse will happen, the "man" gets up in a daze thinking he was dreaming and walks on. God Bless R

Its a cult BJJ

Send the arrogant jerks to a Krav Maga studio, using jiu jitsu on 3 attackers at once will build some humility for the B-Jay-Jay instructor. The groin WILL be restomped! Unless the instructor uses switchblade-jitsu.

No way I'm going half speed with any adult. We learned as teenagers in puberty that there were no more play or sport fights -- it's all fun until somebody gets hurt, which is usually real quick. Just avoid aggressive people, and gyms or dojos where they hang out. Being able to win a fair fight is meaningless. Nobody fights fair. There's more than one reason to choose to fight, wrestle, whatever you call it. One is because some like hurting other people. Maybe that's only 5%, but I suspect more. One is sense of insecurity. Maybe that's only 33%, but I suspect more. If somebody says they train in martial arts, I avoid them. Sooner or later they will want to show you.
