In this solo episode, Shintaro Higashi unpacks the myth of drilling basics—specifically the overemphasis on repetitive Uchi Komi in judo and other grappling arts. Drawing from personal experience, high-level coaching, and comparisons with BJJ, he explains why contextual training, grip fighting, and micro-movements matter far more once the basics are in place.Discover why doing “a thousand Uchi Komi a day” might not be the key to mastery—and what you should focus on instead.⏱️ TIMESTAMPS & TOPICS00:00 The Overhyped Obsession with Basics01:00 Traditional Training in Japan: Unrealistic Volume02:00 Diminishing Returns of Uchi Komi03:00 Gripping, Fighting for Position, and Tactical Play04:00 Nuances of High-Level Judo05:00 Uchi Komi as a Warm-Up, Not the Main Course06:00 Athleticism vs. Contextual Awareness07:00 Why Mastering Movement Isn’t Enough08:00 Reading Your Opponent: The Next Level09:00 BJJ Comparison: The Knee Cut Pass Analogy10:00 Micro-Skills, Timing, and Invisible Grappling11:00 Reading Between the Lines in Judo🚨 LIMITED-TIME OFFER: 40% OFF 🚨The All-in-One Instructional Bundle just got even better.Every major instructional.
