It was great to see a world-class scientist like Andrew humbly take on a new challenge with a beginner's mind. Here are the timestamps: 0:00 - Introduction 1:13 - Arm drag 2:18 - RNC choke 3:38 - Darce choke 6:38 - Head & arm choke
Having Lex Friedman on your back calmly explaining to you in his monotone slightly Russian voice how he is going to choke you, or break your jaw, or both must be terrifying
It wouldn't be a bad way to go. Its actually quite peaceful outside the struggle part lol. The dreams you have while choked out are pretty wild though...
um, it starts with lack of glucose and blood to the eyes so that the neurone starts firing stars and butterflies in fantastic colours how do I tap? oh sorry I forgot to tell you
Mad credit to Huberman for allowing his first class to get filmed - the first class is harrowing enough without someone filming it too! Harrowing and addicting
@@hubriswonk yeah I heard this on another podcast where a comedian was mentioning his introduction to jujitsu then getting a sore throat having problems swallowing. He googled it and the internet basically told him, "tap stupid." Lol
This CD has three separate relaxation/meditation sessions on it ruclips.net/user/postUgkxzpa8CIfZcihW4Z0F_ja0QF3W9KIatrsq guided by a very pleasant and direct male voice. Unlike so many other products of its type, this CD does not have bad synthesizer music, does not feature a phony or affected style of narration, and does not make any bogus claims to be subliminal or to re-train the brain or any of that balderdash. What you get is 1. a guided meditation for getting into a pleasantly relaxed state of body awareness while taking a stroll (superb for those easing back into a fitness routine slowly after an illness or injury) 2. A nice long breath-awareness relaxation session that if followed diligently can put you into very deep states of full-body relaxation and mental calmness, and 3. a buddhist-inspired meditation session designed to help you develop and maintain feelings of loving kindness toward not just yourself and your friends, but toward people you don't even like. The CD makes no claims to be designed for advanced meditators or for buddhists or hindus/yoga practitioners looking for very deep and esoteric stuff. It is geared more toward the average person who just wants to develop the habit of relaxation and stress relief through natural, healthy means. him, if you happen to be reading this, keep up the good work fella, and I love your accent. I would also like to note that I have never fallen asleep while listening to this product. I would like to kindly suggest to the reviewer who said this CD makes him fall asleep, that he might want to get checked to see if he has a sleep disorder, or if he is simply not setting aside ample time for restful sleep at night. A healthy person getting adequate rest at night should be able to go into deep states of mental relaxation without dozing off, if not all the time, then most of the time.
Yeah. My first class was great and got me hooked. The head coach asked a brown belt to guide me through the whole thing. Second class however he partnered me with a purple belt that was an ashole (still is). If I was not really into BJJ already and jaded to assholes I could see how it would put of a beginner.
That's what has put me off from it sometimes. Running into the one dick that wants to be aggressive and then I get sent away in a stretcher with broken bones.
@@bryansuarez2396 youll be fine, you can observe pretty easily. But its a part of it every now and then youll run into someone who will roll at 90+% and you never roll with them again. But youll find plenty of guys or gals who will roll at your same pace and those are the best.
@@Jitsandcrypto This seems to make sense I think if I interpreted correctly. But that would also apply to blue vs blue, purple v purple etc etc yes? Same equivalent. Or are you just referring to everyday average civilians in public that don't know anything in martial arts?
@@JediNiyte there is a huge purple belt on steroids in my gym ( cool guy btw) and he always apologizes because one time he hurt a dude on accident and still feels bad about it
Wow... the more I learn about Lex, and get to observe his growth, the more I truly believe people like him should be our Cultural and Societal icons.... the people who we look up to and strive to equal. He truly is a role model for the future generations that are coming up and still looking for inspiration. -----Plus he is sooo humble for being such an intelligent, educated, knowledge based individual.
@@Jitsandcrypto Amazing actually. Sometimes I get frustrated, but I always get reminded by my rolling partner that one day I'll learn how to do it correctly and I think that is the essence of jiu jitsu, being patient and learn from people who are more experimented than me even if they are white belts. I train sometimes twice a day, I've become very addicted and disciplined to improve in this journey. I'll be 28 years old next april, yet I've set a goal this year to participate in my first tournament and win many matchs as I can, and next year maybe the europe's !!
We all knew Andrew has a brilliant mind, but I never realized the man was also built like a tank. He's going to do very well in Jiu Jitsu if he pursues it.
i once was teaching jj to a girl, and also forgot to tell her what "tapping" is. I taught her the RNC and I tapped, she didn't let go and I was like yo I was tapping and she was like how tf am I supposed to know! Sometimes you skip the most basic things lol
I agree, I've become aware of and a fan of a few great people through the JRE. I've come to like several of them alot more than Joe as he seems to have lost the plot these last 18 months. Joe always had his foibles and his irritating moments but that's normal. None of us are perfect and you can still enjoy people's company. That's how I felt for years but recently he's just gone so far off the deep end. I just can't persevere with Joe anymore 😞
Perfect display of how a persons first jiu jitsu class(es) should be. Props to Lex for being a great training partner to a first timer, applause to Andrew for going out of his comfort zone and trying something new and salute to Gabe and 10th Planet Austin for opening their doors and allowing a cameraman to capture this.
Please do a continued series on this as it's really awesome seeing you two interact outside of work, seeing Lex being able to impart his wisdom and Andrew is obviously naturally curious. Amazing to watch even tho it was just you two doing some drills. Thanks guys
Do it. I wanted to for years, but i have back issues and was nervous. Signed my son up and after watching his practices and talking to the Professor about my back I decided to give it a try. That was in November and I've had a blast and can't wait for practice days.
As someone who has practiced Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for about 8 months now, I find it refreshing and totally interesting that Andrew Huberman has agreed to attend a BJJ class. He definitely is built for this, and I do believe that, despite his age, he can thrive in this art!
I've always prided and encouraged myself to accept and embrace humility. Lex articulated, in such a practical way, how loss and failure is a benefactor toward the journey of success.
Lex is the type of guy that the common man would think he could fuck with, but is the last person you should fuck with. Hence why you should avoid getting into fights out in the real world.
"I can see how this can become addicting". Oh yes, specially when you start rolling. It's not even about winning in this sport. It's all about the process.
So cool to see you and Andrew getting "out of your heads" and "into your bodies", literally! The future is all about embodiment and direct experience. Theory and mind-based realities are wonderful but incomplete. Congrats and thanks to you both for being such great theoreticians -- and role models!
Love it! The Hubes definitely has a great build for BJJ. His methodical mind will make him good at it for sure! Glad to see him training at 10th Planet as a fellow 10th P member :D
This was so cool! I was in (i don’t know how it is in english) basically standing up fight course and 1x week there was a BJJ course too, that was really cool to watch. Once after training our trainer just rolled with his girl, like a ball, so cool! I agree, it takes a lot to let someone mount you, not an everyday occurrence. This teaches a lot.
Lex, you're becoming my favourite RUclipsr. From one extreme to another you continue to inform and inspire, regularly. Thank you. I had to give up my longboard but I think I've found a new interest! Continued success. Love from BC Canada!
This was cooler than the last 3 MMA fights I’ve watched. We need way more of this on RUclips. Leading Scientists rolling together. That’s so cool to me.
You lost me at (0:23) when you mentioned 'using detailed techniques to attain dominant positions that allow you to control your opponents body and then to apply submissions' and now I need to take a cold shower... no doubt I will be having dreams all week about you perfecting your techniques and dominating my body. (Haaaah!)
Loved the comparison of this being like chess and endless combinations of moves. I first started watching MMA at the beginning of the pandemic so now I can fully appreciate watching this instructional jiu jitsu video. Perhaps a regular jiu jitsu teaching video from Lex could be a thing for fans? This was really great!
achievement unlocked: out of the chair achievement unlocked: fresh air achievement unlocked: skin contact with free floating 3rd person big stuff from lex
they genuinely feed off each other, and use each other as inspiration, don't know how long they have been friends but looks like best friends, lets get lex skateboarding next
Truly love how lex identifies at one moment during RNC choke that he could either "break the jaw, or still choke you," then does neither, exercising a third option.
Lex grab Huberman, Rogan, Bravo and yourself. Maybe Ronda Patrick & wim Hof in the mix. Make a fully realised huberman protocol informed BJJ gym. Where it's like a retreat. Where you get the full optimised experience. Ice bath eye stretches for flexibility, breathing, sauna, sensory deprivation, oxygen deprivation, nootropics, supplements. Watch recordings of your training in down time. Get lectures. Go do psychedelics in tents i dunno, get those crazy experts to design it and refine it in annual design Summits. Then open centres around the world. Ok ty bye
Maybe also toss some self awareness shit in there like psychoanalytical/personality coaching, career planning, whatever's best. Provide people with the optimal personal development experience in both physical and mental domains... Using BJJ as a tool to train ego, learn to learn, etc. Maybe add some other stuff the the mix. Some heavy right brain creative learning of some skill, and some heavy left brain. Maybe teach people design principles and coding and BJJ. I dunno. Imagine what you could offer over a 10 day retreat.
My two favourite nerds doing my favourite activity! You two should make more videos like this from time to time, it's nice to see another side to the both of you. Also, congratulations Andrew Huberman on taking your first step on the path of Jiu-Jitsu, you're going to be a monster in no time!
This is great, I'm a BJJ practitioner, and today I found out that Lex is a black belt and now Andrew is involved. Their podcasts are great! They added value to the internet. Of course, let's not forget brother Joe Rogan.
Wow I really hope to see more videos like this! I've always been interested in your grappling journey and system. Thanks Lex! I bet Andrew will excel at this!
Maybe it's the 100s of hours I've listened to and watched lex that make me feel like he's my pal, but hearing him say he's seeing stars made me want to run into the video to make sure he was ok! As always, such a patient, kind, encouraging person during this lesson. I always appreciate the endless knowledge I gain from him.
"lex fridman is strong" Im sure he is strong, because he works out so much and trains BJJ so much. However, BJJ black belts/brown belts are always "strong" when you get to grappling with them. Not only are his muscles strong, but he is leveraging his muscles, bone structure, weight, etc. to control the opponent. When you get controlled to that degree it can feel like the person is significantly stronger than you. It takes rolling with a physically small person to realize, oh this guy isn't strong, he is just good at BJJ.
Ok, yes. But a good practitioner ALWAYS has a very good grip. Usually surprisingly strong grip. You can measure it in a BJJ room using grip strength measurements. The best ones have the most powerful grips.
It was great to see a world-class scientist like Andrew humbly take on a new challenge with a beginner's mind. Here are the timestamps:
0:00 - Introduction
1:13 - Arm drag
2:18 - RNC choke
3:38 - Darce choke
6:38 - Head & arm choke
That is a very elegant and flowy discipline. Impressive.
What an incredible experience. In a long stretch of incredible experiences. Stay weird Lex.
Is that the gym you normally train at?
The art of folding clothes, with people in them. 😎
3:38 - Darce choke - is when Lex almost died.
Having Lex Friedman on your back calmly explaining to you in his monotone slightly Russian voice how he is going to choke you, or break your jaw, or both must be terrifying
@@haalogen1917 what does this have to do with anything lol
@@summer2011909 guy has to be american, for them, everything has to do with race
It wouldn't be a bad way to go. Its actually quite peaceful outside the struggle part lol. The dreams you have while choked out are pretty wild though...
hahahahaha thank god hes such a nice dude
Or lovely! Haha
Lex gets a tight RNC in, gently whispers in Andrew's ear: "What do you think happens when we die?"
lmao
um, it starts with lack of glucose and blood to the eyes so that the neurone starts firing stars and butterflies in fantastic colours how do I tap? oh sorry I forgot to tell you
hilarious
Terrifying!
'any advice for young people Andrew'
The bromance I didn't know I needed.
Forcibly hugging your bros is very bromantic
This.
I hear that
Sometimes practiced with the ghee and sometimes without the ghee.
Legit !
Mad credit to Huberman for allowing his first class to get filmed - the first class is harrowing enough without someone filming it too! Harrowing and addicting
I think it's his only class
No it's not "harrowing"! Why were you that scared?
DR Huberman in his next episode: "There is a lot of data now supporting the fact that if you get choked out you lose a few neurons."
"The...there is a lo... lot of d..data now sup..porting the fact that if if y...you g...get ch...choked out you lose a few neutrons... neurons."
@@temuujinsukhbaatar7345 That's dark lol
Amazing
He's next paper: "More effective choking techniques in Jiujitsu based on neuroscience research."
@@temuujinsukhbaatar7345 LOLLLLL
There is something about how calm and soft-spoken Lex is that makes him intimidating.
He could easily be a Bond villain.
Serious KGB vibes.
It's that Russian in him.
When you get to his level, either in science or jiu jitsu, not much needs to be said loudly.
He'd be easy to take out, look at his twig arms🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"I forgot that you don't know how to tap." Lex is genuinely hilarious without even trying
Always have to tell newbies to tap...haha!

*while Lex has him in a headlock: "so..uh do you have any advice for the younger generation listening in?"
Got him in that hard scarf. Gang gang.
"So...what was your favorite part...about this headlock"
Huberman "Don't be afraid to tap".
imagine a full jiu jitsu podcast, lex asking incredibly complex questions while turning his guest into a pretzel
5:07 wow wish i had a friend like andrew, who I could ask all my silly questions to and can give the factual answer so casually.
Ugh same!
his knowledge of the brain and nervous system is insane haha blows me away every time
It’s not a silly question tho.
Same thing I was thinking lol.
or get the fractual answer casually :D
Lex, don't cut off the blood to his brain, we need his knowledge!! Andrew, defend yourself!
Poor Andrew 😭😭
Mondays will never be the same again
Hahaha :)
hahaha
I know I heard of this years ago and thought that
Lex shows a perfect example of the type of person a beginner should roll with. Patient, Relaxed, Confident, Knowledgeable. 👏🏼😎👍🏼
Yeah. My first class was great and got me hooked. The head coach asked a brown belt to guide me through the whole thing. Second class however he partnered me with a purple belt that was an ashole (still is). If I was not really into BJJ already and jaded to assholes I could see how it would put of a beginner.
Hearing a montoned Lex say "I can break the jaw or still choke you" made me chuckle more it should have
Same here, had a good laugh at that line
I like when he starts choking Huberman and says “just swim that through”😂
I agree. The idea of Lex breaking anyone’s jaw is weird
He will definitely apologize after he breaks your jaw and tell you that he loves you.
We all know his mesmerizing voice will entrance the enemy into submission faster than the claw can swim behind the head! 😂😂
I just realized how much trust jiu jitsu requires… damn!

There’s something a bit erotic about this…and I don’t mind it
Lex I'm super impressed to see that you absolutely never skip out on leg day!
BJJ is really well put as a type of chess... Everyone should have the experience of some rolling
Lex is so amazing. Even when sharing a workout he’s still sharing the human experience like he does in his podcasts. ❤️
This is too much contact ngl
Awesome. Would enjoy more of these type videos Lex.
This is great, I'm a BJJ practitioner, and today I found out that Lex is a black belt and now Andrew is involved. Their podcasts are great! They added value to the internet. Of course, let's not forget brother Joe Rogan.
Wow I really hope to see more videos like this! I've always been interested in your grappling journey and system.
Thanks Lex!
I bet Andrew will excel at this!
Maybe it's the 100s of hours I've listened to and watched lex that make me feel like he's my pal, but hearing him say he's seeing stars made me want to run into the video to make sure he was ok!
As always, such a patient, kind, encouraging person during this lesson. I always appreciate the endless knowledge I gain from him.
Seeing stars might be uncomfortable but is ok. If you lift a lot of weight you can run out of glucose too. But it should settle rather quick.
"lex fridman is strong"
Im sure he is strong, because he works out so much and trains BJJ so much. However, BJJ black belts/brown belts are always "strong" when you get to grappling with them. Not only are his muscles strong, but he is leveraging his muscles, bone structure, weight, etc. to control the opponent. When you get controlled to that degree it can feel like the person is significantly stronger than you. It takes rolling with a physically small person to realize, oh this guy isn't strong, he is just good at BJJ.
Ok, yes. But a good practitioner ALWAYS has a very good grip. Usually surprisingly strong grip. You can measure it in a BJJ room using grip strength measurements. The best ones have the most powerful grips.
Lex isn’t that good and he’s 5’6 140 lbs. Andrew is a tank and would beat him after 6 months of training
2:33, guy on the right: Jujitsu's better than I thought.
I'd like to see more of this kind of content from you Lex:)
This was awesome to watch. I feel like I need to go to a bjj class now!
I also practice jiu jitsu. You can see how excited Lex is in the Intro lmao!
I didn't know I needed to watch this video....
