Constructive critique. John Danaher NEEDS a mic every time. He is a very soft spoken man. Absolutely nothing wrong with that, but that means he needs to be mic'd up so that we can actually hear him when he speaks. Please take this seriously as it's going to greatly help with the retention of these videos.
Tottaly agree! Please take this seriously.📢🔊
Lol Martial I literally went from watching one of your videos to this and see you here 😂
Also yeah 100% agree with the feedback
Weird, I have zero issues hearing John…maybe you’re getting old? 😅
@@shabblabbat It's not impossible to hear him, he's just very quiet, and significantly quieter than Bernardo. It's just not super professional having the audio levels all over the place like that
@@shabblabbat Yep. That's why I'm watching a video about Jiu-Jitsu for old men lol.
With this video, it actually looks like as we age we mostly lose hearing.
LMAO
Hahahahaha
I'm 51 and diagnosed with Parkinson's disease and started BJJ. 2 months now. I can tell a difference already. I went in knowing nothing explained my situation ahead and was welcomed. I really enjoy it.
Bless you 🙏🏾
You absolute beast!!
I had to use my guitar amp at full volume to hear what danaher was saying, huge honor for me regardless
Lmaoooooo
I'm 65 started BJJ @ 63 after decades of Karate, surfing, Basketball & all sorts of fun sports. I don't like being manhandled by anyone in BJJ class so keep making these important videos 4 us all who r & will be Senior Citizens
Thanks 4 the lesson
Im sorry, buy you will get manhandled, grandpa. Oil checked, all of it. What did you expect, shaolin monks?
59 year old brown here and Bernardo was the one who encouraged me to play halfguard when he started teaching at Marcelo’s. He would tell me that it will slow down the young guys and I don’t have to be as flexible which is very true. I still get smashed but I get more sweeps then any other type of guard. Nice to see John helping us cripples.
Does that apply to MMA with strikes
@@smiley-qb3nt I wouldn’t put myself in that position if that was the case but if you stay really close you can get the sweep with little damage and return the favor with a few strikes yourself.
Is this Joe i know from
RGA Middletown NY
Half guard legend ?
@@rmt1 lmao. Yes. I don’t know who this is but you are right about me.haha.
@@joepoe8861 yo Joe !
Ryan purple belt under Zefrino
We use to have good rolls!
Brian Glick has one of the best BJJ channels on UA-cam. I love his and Shintaro's collaborations! ✌️❤🥋
Danaher: "I am an old cripple".
Bernardo: "that's very true"
Lol I love Bernardo. He is a very well meaning and nice person. 😂 Always a huge honor for me to watch these videos.
You lose the attributes you don’t work on. This is why strength and conditioning is very important to ALL ATHLETES regardless of age.
Point taken, but not very realistic. Not every person that trains in jiujitsu is an ATHLETE, nor should they be. Not everyone has the time or the means to do strength and conditioning on a regular basis. Strength and conditioning isn't a prerequisite for training in BJJ. Of course, it will only help your training, but expecting everyone regardless of age to do that is unrealistic to me.
@@greysaku I think you’re taking the definition of athlete and shrinking it to just the idea that you have to be committed to training at an almost professional level. If the average person can commit to training 3x a week then they can spend an extra 1-2 hours a week doing strength and conditioning. Also strength and conditioning a broad term that has aspects of mobility work, calisthenics, cardio conditioning and whole host of modalities. After reading a number of posts from older grapplers and their injuries on various social media platforms the one unifying factor was lack of proper strength and conditioning (which includes recovery).
@@greysakugood resistance training is non negotiable for any population. Especially the aging population. An hour a week will do wonders.
55 yrs old purple belt here. I do extra cardio so that my steady state cardio will allow me to recover between rounds. I also use bands and medicine balls to improve my mobility and keep my fast twitch fibers active.
My friend, check out segmental limb rolling and rocking/crawl patterns for some gentle strength and mobility work. This will tie a lot of things together nicely. I hope to still be rolling if I reach 55. I just started last year at 29 and rollers like yourself are a big inspiration to me.
This from a 73 year old whose trained in BJJ for almost 30 years: Step 1 when you are older: Forget about no-gi. No matter what you do, the essence of the game is athletic, explosive, flexible, and inversion-critical. You are giving up too much. Gi, on the other hand, gives you so many handles and just having cloth on cloth slows things down, more like grappling under water. So control and contact and isometric holding are natural.
And, no-gi is so leg oriented; if you are older, you are more injury prone, you heal much more slowly, and the leg locks are ground zero for injuries. All the more so because they can come very quickly.
Amazing tip. Thank you
I hate no gi it’s not jiu jitsu to me though it goes against the principles of jiu jitsu in general
Wisdom - learning when to let go of your ego and tap. Being able to train again in a day or two is more important than "winning" training. Just the opinion of a 55 year old black belt who appreciates the hell out of the great training partners he has.
Ageless JJ was my favorite Danaher video. Technique selection was key and the funneling concept
46 year old Black Belt here. I totally agree with this. Thank you!
Thank you Coach John for thinking of the BJJ grapplers over 40. Your wisdom and observations are of great benefit and continue to provide teaching for all of the Jujitsu practitioners regardless of age, athleticism. We need this training!
Coach Al
I don't even do striking anymore but I really want to see what John Danaher has to teach when it comes to striking. I've heard he's very knowledgeable in the subject and I would love to see how he structures and explains it
Yes. I do striking but I cannot find striking instructionals that have the same teaching style as danaher. Will be great if he ever do such video.
More than anything as we get older we lose the ability to recover. It’s super easy to overtrain just by trying to keep up with the younger guys just because we need more time between the hardest workouts to recover properly.
True. I'm over 30 now and I do feel the difference compared to when I was in my 20s.
@@andryranivoarizaka9772 oh then wait two decades...
@@raiklaub975 😅
Peptides baby
@@biscobisco1882 please some details on peptides - thanks
Great idea for an instructional! I feel like this will be the most watched danaher videos.
Bernardo comes in yelling then John whispers lol. Such wizardry going on on this mat 😂😂😂
In a way, this is what Helio Gracie jiu jitsu has always been about, I think.
You’re 100% correct. I think it’s what has been lost with all the evolution and in a strange way it has led to accusations of BJJ not being as effective in recent years. Basics, basics, basics..Helio was a genius.
100%.
John speaks about the essence of bjj, the foundations... the how a weak (visually) can prevail, survive, continue the sport etc
As a relatively older, smaller "athletically challenged" guy I have already focused on understanding these concepts, the "why", this video help me to identify some context of where, when and how.
60yo 2 stripe blue
Injury prevention and surviving have become my submissions. That and sneaking in a wrist lock occasionally 😅 Muchos gracias señor danaher!
this is great... rad idea to look out for
They mic’d the wrong guy 😂 ** the coughing guy in the background **
at 12:51 bernardo looks so focused when dohn janaher is talking. i want someone to look at me the way bernardo looks at him
This is awesome
Excellent
Thank you JD, you are an inspiration to me! I started at age 28 or 29 can't remember and am 47 now still just a blue belt BUT I will never quit and will attain my Black belt within the next 5 years because I am committed and this ageless course you created is much needed.
What are you guys smoking bro
My phones naturally at a lower volume because it’s so old,
And I can still hear everything in this entire video.
#HugeHonorForMe
28?!! Started at 39 and now I’m a purple belt at 45. I feel great though. Can’t complain
Do you compete?
@@anon2034 not in the past two years. But I’d like to this summer for sure.
@@Arthurdankarelli Go for it!
Damn. Im 41 and still haven't started.
@@alantinoalantonio Go for it! :)
Thanks guys. As a 73 yo white belt, there's still hope for me.
Mind officially blown. Danaher's face will be on the Mt. Rushmore of jiu jitsu
Perfect for me ❤
I will take you're advise to heart over the next year and my 40 extra lbs. I already liked half guard. Not having as anyone lay on my stomach will be another goal. I'm a 195 lbs 150 pounder for the next few months. I do take issue with deteriorating so much physically in you're early fifties. I was stronger, faster and more explosive than some of the 25 year olds at 53. Not at a high level, but my cardio and strength were my peak before my injury.
This game reminded me of dean lister half guard lessons
Lose mobility, keep knowledge, gain experience. Predefined answers are limiting. Mic the guy, already
I got out of shape during Covid because of gym closures, then went back to my old gym eventually and was so out of shape I couldn’t even hang with anyone anymore. I sort of feel like a scrub on the mats, and that I don’t really belong there anymore. And I don’t know why teachers spend all their time helping some stud on the mats and not someone twice their age struggling.
Also keep or gain tenacity and fighting spirit. Gambatte!!!
Video looked awesome. Wish I could hear what they were saying. I guess I'm old?
should i wait for the gi version or is the no gi series workable in gi for the most part?
I hate to be that guy but lack of volume in this video makes it almost unwatchable even with closed captions. Please re-upload the video with a volume boost. Thank you.
Will all the money they must be making, and they still can't afford decent equipment.....
When the video ended I almost fell from the chair. I had the audio on Max and it was hard to hear, but the end comercial was way louder than the video. 🔊📢
You are not that guy, you are everyone trying to watch this
Great video ofc, but the volume is SO LOW
As an older fighter, I think motivation interms of discipline is going up, at least in my case.
Alot of little details that apply to everyone. Pushing lock downs apart with your free leg heel is a good one 👀
I need this I’m old
Thank you!!! Us old bastards gotta stick together!!
Great video guys but the audio is not happening.... please use mics properly. It's hard to follow
What’s the name of this video ?
18:19 In California they call it lockdown 😂
Huge honor ! But please up your video production game. I've lost count of the number of BJJ Fanatics videos where the quality has been compromised by audio that is too low, too much echo, too much background noise or even people sniffing loudly while filming. Since the video operator is closer to the mic it often picks up their noise more than the person demonstrating.
I hate the scorpion lock. Some guys with stronger legs can do damage to their opponents knees with it.
I never felt quite right doing it to my partners.
@@bryanedds8922 by now I kind of know the people that do it in my gym, and mostly have manged to stay out of it. If the person that's applying the position on you is not bulky, you can sit back on your ankle and that will hurt them a bit, and they'll probably choose to not do the knot next time. I do this very carefully though, it does hurt. If he has big strong legs that doesn't work, he can keep you from sitting.
you don't need to stretch a person's leg out as hard as you can., you can just use it to keep their leg wrapped up and with a little bit of tension so that you can feel if they try to move their leg out and move your legs accordingly to keep theirs wrapped up.
There's ways out of it
I admit, I've seen some horrific leg injuries and I have some psychological blocks around things like that, so I'm not necessarily object.
Cool username, too ;)
From bottom, Mir Lock ❤
been doing this forever and it's super effective. it creates scrambles that you usually win and the young bucks will waste a ton of energy while you play position. I love half guard. Used to watch a bunch of Caio Terra stuff on half guard.
the real answer: get some 💉
What is that move called at 16:06? Been thinking about this position for a while but never could work out what it's called.
@@chungfr Ude Gatame
Please get a mic.... my audio is maxed out....
need some mics here
Bjj fanatics please 🙏 get some mics.
The volume issues in this video highlight the general theme of poor production quality across bjj fanatics instructionals
Does this mean top game is on the way?
Techniques starts at 10:39 lmao
Please use a dedicated microphone for JD. Tough to hear him.
Damn John started off with base in his voice then slowly faded out. Lol
He lost me at I'm getting older. Get that man a mega phone
I’m 46 and recently quit Bjj. I wish I knew this
John, Please teach us selfdefence
👏
Unbelievable that John has both hip and knee replaced in this video
Okay guys 😅
Me watching this was an Athletic 21 year old
👁 👁
O
Almost broke my "volume up" button. Sooo quiet
🐐🐐🐐
Thank god no placido, great video and techniques
What's wrong with Placido?
Hearing 30 being referred to as "older" stings 😂
Father Time has your back with the hooks in, even Danaher can't teach that escape....lol
@@pulsarlights2825 funny you put it that way, because I just happen to be unusually good at escaping back control 😜
Oh damn, I think he just got under my chin 😂😭
A 30 year old who hasn't been regularly exercising is old, a 30 year old who has been athletic and training throughout his 20s isn't.
@@lordsneed9418 A 30 year old who has always exercised is 30. A 30 year old so has never exercised is 30.
😂😂😂
A 30 year old who has always exercised may be in better shape than one who hasn’t. He is no younger tho
@@kris3451 Thanks for replying to my comment Kris! Have a wonderful day!❤️
funny title.
Bernardo needs to have boom mic directly in front of John. Very difficult to hear him.
Tony Ferguson has got old looking
I'm 28 am I old enough for this 👴
If it helps I feel very very old
Bernardo and team, can you please normalise the audio levels of your videos? I turn it up on headphones to double normal levels and then it ends with Bernardo loudly saying "please help me out" into my ears.
I’m sorry but I can’t take him seriously anymore after “paragami kawshi flawshi”
It's not a huuuge honor for Bernardo to meet Mr. Glick ?? ^^
7:16
42yo black belt, 30 years training ... my knees are 60yo
I’m actually 60 with 25 years BJJ. Tumeric curcumin extract has really helped.
Can you mic him up please? I have my volume on high and the static is blowing my ears and he is still unintelligible 😢
JD throwing shade at 10 “in California it’s called locked down.”
Lockdown in the 10P system is critical and has nothing to do with age.
To those commenting John is hard to hear, I suspect it's just a cunning ploy to get us to pay closer attention to what he's saying..
Turn the volume up. We can always turn our volume down. Thanks...very weak vocals.
got my sound up to 100 and still cant hear what Danaher is mumbling
why is the sound quality always sooooooo sh.. in your videos? cant understand a word Danaher is saying without putting the volume so loud that when you talk it hurts my ear!!!
What do you gain as an older athlete? Arthritis and neck pain
should we make a pool and buy John a microphone that works? It is frustrating that so much bjj wisdom gets unintelligible thus wasted.
I’m 60 and small x 25 years BJJ. I’ll bet I’ve been smashed and chingered up way more than Danaher. I’m tired of him calling himself a cripple.
Step one: Weigh 200lbs at the very least.
Most younger bjj guys are noodles.
Noodles who will tune u up lol
Glad john showed how garbage the lockdown is.
Can't hear a word Danaher is saying
Got my knee hurt today by a strong blue belt teenager... I'm 50 y.old white belt 4 ////... I wasn't going strong on him..i sed he looks like my son.... So i let him workout...big mistake... Next time sorry kids I'll go 25% strong er than you...
Very useful. 48 y/o.
I can't hear anything he's saying.
I can't hear a word he's saying
listening to John danaher makes you smarter.
