@@gman2419 that’s true too! But doing things like stretching helps loosen those areas too. Keeps them from being tight so there’s less chance of injury there either!
@@gman2419 more so for beginners. Once you get going the risk of neck and and back injuries is significantly reduced. Hard to injure those when correctly playing your guard or attacking
@@gman2419 sure training your neck is important but it's mostly a knee and shoulder thing.. Train. your. rotator. cuff.

Totally agree. I stopped strength training thinking it would help my Ju Jitsu. Boy was I wrong, injuries constantly. I’ve started lifting again, feel solid on the mats, and it’s helped my BJJ.
I think this happens to every martial artist at some point. I did this frequently in boxing, wrestling, and Jeet Kune Do. Luckily I was never injured but I noticed a huge difference
Facts. Working out for all sports isn’t only about getting strong but also preventing injury. Especially things like football that are high contact if your ligaments aren’t strong enough to handle high impact you’ll tear something for sure cause guys with the strongest ligaments in the world still tear them from time to time.
I found for me as a big guy Id do a heavy workout before JJ practice it really helped my technique. Never got injured either but it kept me from being able to use my strength and focus on technique.
I wonder if a lot of people stop working out when they pick up any martial art. I’ve trained judo and mma for over 2 years now and I rarely workout. I know I should; I just don’t for one reason or another.
VERY TRUE, I'm one stripe away from my black belt in BJJ and I do MMA, I'm 61 I eat healthy, I've been sick twice in 37 years. I neglected my leg training end of 2022 first roll of the night rolling with a tough young black belt broke my ankle. All good now, but it cost me a lot of time and money.
at my age and beyond... as a kid it went from becoming powerful and discovering yourself and your abilities do now it’s all about preservation and armor ... not to impress others or to compete with my peers but to hopefully be able to lift cars and cement objects off myself or at least be able to pull my way in team situation’s ... I want to feel on the weakest link in the team knowing that I am awesome ... technique is always important the first round to the last ... gargoyle
Throughout my wrestling career I found the same issue. My drilling was on point as was my cardiovascular conditioning but I failed to put the time in the weight room to maximize that needed balance
I’m dealing with this as we speak. Recovering from rotator cuff surgery last fall. Only a few weeks into BJJ, and back at the gym. And my shoulder is absolutely screaming at me! I’m trying to dig deep and get after it, and not set myself back injury wise. It’s a very hard rope to balance on
Same,I know he’s a Seal,but it’s disheartening to see.If it doesn’t count for me,I don’t want it to count for him,and just engrained in both our brains lol
MOBILITY! It's true. And cardio. The older you become the more you should be aware of being mobile and flexible. Stretching muscles is very important as you age otherwise you stiffen up because your range of motion diminishes rapidly. MOBILITY! CARDIO!
Ive focused all my time recently on training over lifting and I’d agree, I think that was a mistake on my part. I’m starting to see more and more nagging injuries now.
I was working out 6 times a week, and training mma 6 times a week. It was messing me up, third shift worker here btw. I went to workout 3 times a week, doing mma 5 times a week, I feel good.
I stopped rolling during Covid because the gym I was going to shut down, and then later I moved. Now it’s been two years without jiu-jitsu, I’m out of shape, and I’m too worried to go back and do jiu-jitsu because some kid half my age wants to tap me and I get injured. I can’t keep that pace and I’m rusty. And old. And have bad elbows and shoulders as it is.
Only jocko says knock on wood and knocks his head. You know mans hella hard
Perma boners
Pause
ill wtf?
he wasnt knocking on wood. he's knocking on steel.
Pretty much his head is hard as concrete
He’s tired. I’m gonna take a nap in his honor.
lmao

So much truth.. i stopped working out and was using bjj as my workout... it didn't workout...
There is a reason why a lot of the dudes on the mat have shoulder issues.
Can't lie.... this ended my mma career
big same...and lifting is what got me back on the mats eventually. I'm almost superstitious about it now...I have to lift if I'm going to class regularly
gotta get in shape to train, not the other way! lessons learned and moving on 💪🏼
I will skip a bjj class to lift weights once a week. Staying strong prevents injuries.
As a powerlifter I almost always get asked "why are you so strong" when I roll with someone for the first time. Lift weights kids
Me and you are gonna go find out who asked you
The serect juice?
@@jacobschwantz9815 nah, just 7 years of consistent lifting
@@charlesyoung3444idk man, I just started jiu jitsu recently but there are guys in there who don’t lift weights at all and are strong as hell
I'm not strong. But I did my time in the weightroom. I always get the dude bro you're so strong backhanded compliments
I agree with Jocko 100 percent. I stopped lifting and all the injuries piled on.
Absolutely. Working out is essential no matter which sport ur in. It’s the foundation to everything else.
It's essential even if you don't do any sport it's just healthy and makes you feel good or at least it makes me feel good
Agree, I lacked working out and found myself injured frequently! I have now changed this.
Makes sense. When you keep your muscles warm and ready to move. They’re less likely to pull or get injured.
With grappling I’d be more concerned with neck and spinal injuries more so than muscles

@@DrikkerbadevandGood to know strength and conditions is a necessity.
That’s what I didn’t do when I got deep into Judo, turned into a shredded 160lb but blew my spine out training with a rookie that tensed up on me

Dude looks like HGH became a human
Kipping pull ups . Not allowed in the Marine Corps. But I still love ya bro!
All I’m saying
Nonetheless it gives more reps and more reps gives more muscle endurance when you’re older.
Jocko never gets emotional. Never get emotional ❤ and much love and peace to this amazing person
The work ethic of this man is unreal
I agree with Jocko. I was in karate, didn't really enjoy it, but loved jiujitsu. But I couldn't leave behind my gym life.
Dude is a total machine
I see many are criticizing Jocko’s Kipping chin-ups but maybe he already did a bunch of strict chins and this was a forced rep finishing set.
leave it to the internet comments to critique a 10 second clip of a navy seal's workout
The people criticizing his chin-ups are probably covered with Cheetos crumbs. Gotta love the internet
JOCKO IS THE MAN
Knock on wood... Classic...
....... Mix true prayer... In with that....
YOUD PROBABLY BE🤟👻 like one of the baddest man that ever lived
Jocko's a legend
when jocko was a kid he made his dad hold the flashlight 🔦 🤣
And gave him shit for holding it wrong.
A man after my own heart.
Jockos one tough dude
Stopped lifting and someone was kind enough to put my sacrum where it wasn’t supposed to be… kettlebells everyday from here on out baby.
What's the sacrum ?
@@jimreily7538 Its the triangle shaped bone that sits between your hips. mine was sideways.
Dude is a marvel character irl
Why does this guy look like Jason Bourne had a kid with a thumb
Thank you for the motivation.

A BULLY WORST NIGHTMARE

That man is dense.. Years of hardening..
I really do believe in this mans path..
What a dangerous man. If he gets his paws on u it's over
Kettle bell swings man, keep ya strong and loose.
mobility AND stability. doesn't matter if you're mobile if you're just really weak out there that's when you get injured
"I got pretty lucky as far as injuries go" duh, Sir, you are built like Zeus!!!!

Especially things like football that are high contact if your ligaments aren’t strong enough to handle high impact you’ll tear something for sure cause guys with the strongest ligaments in the world still tear them from time to time.
I love how it adds the time in
Damn. Here I thought JJ was already working out. Or a good supplemental workout. 🤯
As a boxer I was told for years that lift weights makes me Stetson bulky I’m so glad the facts prove them wrong ... I KNOW MY COARSE
Jocko doesn’t get injured. Jocko injures you.
Being jacked helped keep you from being injured too.
"I think it's from the always working out.."
(Runs trt)
Keep crying little boy
@@kshitizyadav3174 says weepie the kid
"Hey Jocko, Yoga prevents injuries moreso than exercise. Have you ever considered-"
"No."
Rolling with formiga!! Epic
I found for me as a big guy Id do a heavy workout before JJ practice it really helped my technique. Never got injured either but it kept me from being able to use my strength and focus on technique.
That's pretty interesting. I often rely on strength in lieu of technique or as opposed to technique. Might have to start using your method !
I wonder if a lot of people stop working out when they pick up any martial art. I’ve trained judo and mma for over 2 years now and I rarely workout. I know I should; I just don’t for one reason or another.
Mental fortitude ! 👍🏻
Oh yeah my brother from VA.
Dang it Jocko this one hits.
Jocko causes injuries. Just ask Dudley lol
Will you come to Boston Mr. Wilink? I want to give you a hug for what you are and what you stand for ❤. I love you sir.
I love how his black belt is so faded and worn down that it almost looks grey/white again
Definitely feeling it myself. 43 snd i need the muscle armor

Fella knows what he's talking about.
Being a fooking tank of a man and having black belt can prevent injuries I hear.
Doing roids and training all day helps too.
Those are incorrect, wrongful, misinformed opinions that are extremely dysfunctional lies.
i could be wrong but i think Jocko is rolling with Rafael “Formiga” Barbosa...
if so
holy shit

What’s third shift? Are you on a rotating shift?
The man is also 5’10” and 240, that’s a lot of muscle padding every one of his joints and ligaments.
