    I'm a simple purple belt but this is the exact path I was moving towards approaching my BJJ training before life circumstances forced me to stop. Can't wait until I can train regularly again.

    Heuristics are not a branch of ecological psychology. In the 1950s, economist Herbert A. Simon introduced heuristics, indicating limitations in rational decision-making. In the 1970s, psychologists Amos Tversky and Daniel Kahneman expanded this idea with their cognitive bias research. Simon's "satisficing" heuristic helps choose alternatives when outcomes are uncertain. Simon's work showed that we operate within "bounded rationality." James Gibson offered an alternative view, suggesting direct information coupling for adaptive actions. Gigerenzer criticized Tversky and Kahneman's rationality norms and emphasized adaptation to real-world environments. Gigerenzer's approach instead of using probability, statistics and
    logic as a norm of rationality, he considered that the parameter of rationality is how well a cognitive process aids an individual to adapt to the environment. But still all IP.

    Have been following Greg's stuff for a while. I appreciate his approach a lot, but so far I've found him to be unnecessarily condescending to Matt in the conversation, and had to stop listening. (I don't even know Matt, but I really appreciate his mind and his reputation in Jiu Jitsu). It's almost like Greg's trying to employ Danaher-esque rhetoric without Danaher's eloquence or the dignity he gives his conversation partners. I think Greg and his methodology are brilliant, just wish his tone was more respectful.

      If you've been following Greg, you understand the depth of his knowledge and the work he puts in. The host did a poor job of screening the guest as he asked basic questions, then just wanted to hear his own voice. He seems condescending because he is, it became difficult to listen to because he didn't do a good job of exploring the guest, the subject matter, and thoughts. I'd be pissed too if I'm running a gym, helping other coaches, and then you're asked to do a 1 hr 47 min call with someone who asked surface level questions.
      Tell me there isn’t a difference between how Greg is here vs how he is on the Sonny Brown podcast.
      Nothing against the guy, seems like a nice guy and I get his heart is probably in the right place. Interviewing is not easy, especially remotely. But to put it on the guest makes no sense, it's the host's responsibility to understand and guide the conversation before it even starts.

    Souders is the most important figure in grappling history. My opinion.
    He’s also right. Coaching though CLA with ecological psychology in mind is a game changer, and once you see it in action, you will come to agree.

    • @Frag-Jitsu
      @Frag-Jitsu 16 днів тому +1

      The only other person to compete with that spot is Craig jones but for different reasons.
      Souders is at the tip of the spear for the most important innovation that we will ever witness on the coaching, practice design, and skill acquisition front.
      Just my opinion. Been in this almost 20 years, experienced a lot in this BJJ world, coached for 10, witnessed lots of different teams and players get famous and fade away, but this will be a lasting change that will bring sweeping changes.
      Il never go back personally, the bar is just raised higher for what’s happening in training rooms, and what the potential of coaching will be in years to come, as the masses eventually adapt to the movement. It might take 10 years.

    • @Frag-Jitsu
      @Frag-Jitsu 16 днів тому +1

      Just my opinion and I could be wrong but everyone else is famous for their own benefit / profit / or fame, and souders never had to share any of this with us. As coaching goes, it’s the most important thing to have happened for us and I’m happy it’s continuing to grow.
      Maybe eventually it would have emerged from someone else, but I can’t remember anyone else as significant to changing training activities or ways of looking at coaching on such a grand scale.

    this is the second podcast i've listened to about the ecological approach. i still am left wanting when it comes to how this actually plays out logistically during practice on the mats. we got a little bit with the host's heelhook breaking mechanics questions, but it wasn't until 1:10:00 that we got something like what actually practice looks like, and it was barely an example. i think the host did a good job trying to get him into the weeds, but it was another session of just fart smelling about how this approach is better than anything else.
    at this point i still feel like i need to keep thinking of designated winner games to start implementing this approach.

      The host kept asking trite questions. So does every other interviewer. "How do you teach mechanics?" He says he doesn't, he teaches the essential positional elements. Control, isolation, proper alignment, and the students play to figure it out. "But how do you teach mechanics?" It is frustrating, he already answered that question. He explains again. "But what about mechanics?" And on and on and on. Same questions, because the host is driving an agenda, and isn't listening.
