keep a journal, write in it after every training session no matter what sport you do. it will make you better
Great suggestion! Glad I saw your comment before I said it myself.
What is the value that the both of you get out of journaling? Thank you!
"At the end of a good training session your mind should be exhausted not your body"
That hits harrrrddd
Man that’s deep...
That's just stupid
@@paulwhat322 It means if you felt comfortable during training, it wasn't hard or novel enough. You just did what you can already do. The point is to move forward, to improve. You can't do that by standing still in a comfortable state. If you regularly run 15 miles, then you still get tired at the end of it. But it most certainly won't push you to your limit mentally. Now imagine you're told to only breathe through your nose the whole time, and keep a steady pace from start to finish. Never deviate from this even for a minute while you run. You run the same distance, but it will most certainly be a lot harder. However, it will teach you focus and determination. You will have to be victorious over yourself again and again while you're running when you fight the urge to breathe through your mouth, or to slow down a bit. Now it's not just a physical but a mental exercise as well. You adapt to a new level, you gain tolerance to a new kind of suffering.
@@neemnoa303 I understand what you are saying, but I train to exhaust the body and clear the mind from the daily stresses. And I always feel better at the end of a session. Perhaps I'm not pushing enough. I don't compete so don't feel the need for such extremes.
I feel like "GOAT" is overused, but this guy really is the greatest coach I've ever listened to
Try listening to firas zahibi I think you Will enjoy him as well
What the hell does that even mean? Someone please explain.
@@3DegreesNorth638 GOAT=greatest of all time
@Bhupathiraju Niranjan Rohit Varma yeah, fuck Jon Jones. No, but he's fucking good tho and even without the steroids it's hard to consider him goat with all the shit he pulled outside the cage.
@@maxandersson1379 hey I was gonna say firas
Variety is the spice of life. If you don’t change it up you will get bored.
Yup that’s why marriage is silly
@@conormcgregor7305 lmao, interesting point
I really have to hand it to Lex - This 4 hour podcast was one of the most fascinating journeys in conversation I have ever heard. Props to Danaher for being so knowledgeable in so many areas.
Powerful stuff‼️ It’s funny, because a few days ago I heard Canelo state in an interview, that some boxers show up to the gym simply to check a box. But he shows to learn everyday & get better. There’s the PROOF.
Thank you for this I need more wisdom like this🙏
Your videos help a lot. Thanks
So many gems in this podcast but this section has helped me reframe my own idea of persistence.
I come here like every Friday and it’s the best thing I can do for myself.
Lex and all the people he hosts are awesome🙏
Apply to anything in your life. Great explanation.
Right Action comes from Right Thought. I think he articulated this so perfectly.
I feel that purposeful persistence is the real key. Without the purpose it’s hard to rly get in that next Level of flow for me at least
Absolutely agree. Purposeful persistence means you're struggling past adversity for a valuable goal that's meaningful to you. Plain persistence could just mean you're stupidly stubborn, going towards something and not realizing it's a waste of time bc you never took a second to realize what was the whole point.
Good take
Wow this was powerful 🙇🏾♂️
This men are philosophers like cus d amato. I need to learn about this kind of people, they are extremely interesting. What a mind.
Third day(ever)of BJJ🤩My thoughts and mind are spinning 👍🏻Loving every minute 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇬🇧
He is absolutely 100% right.
Danaher is such wise soul, great interview Lex
Great video
Hes an idiot. And this host has the personality of a gym sock.
It's like grit+consistency
John “That’s a great question” Danaher
In the career I chose, it’s common for some people to learn the job and get good at all of the basic stuff in the first year and then spend the next 30 doing the same things over and over. Instead of saying they did 30 years, we like to say they did one year thirty times.
This is not intended as a compliment.
It’s an important phenomenon to observe if you’re seeking mastery of your craft.
the same thing can be about work/ a job… i was bored with my work after 3 years decided to pursue a new career because i wasn't improving myself on a daily basis.. work was repetitive and i knew i wasnt learning anything new
Greatest mind in martial arts
Seriously, who dafq would dislike this?!
He’s right lex
Wow. That's one smart dude
Persistence. Grit. Discipline. Constant progressive improvement of mind and body. Setting, managing, and achieving goals that improve you.
The most important type of persistence is the persistence of thinking, which looks to push you in an increasingly efficient, more and more efficient form of training. Famously, people say that" the hardest work of all is hard thinking, and they're right."
Legends
simply
John Danaher is such a baller
I feel like Danaher could study any sport for roughly a year, and then emerge as a brilliant coach of that sport.
looks like he has his right eye missing...... john looks even scarier
Left right eye?
If you are looking for one golden rule to apply to your life today, in all facets, this is it. Now stop reading this shit and go and get some!
Work hard, but work smart while at it.
Dude sounds like Obi one kenobi
Still can't believe john was a bodybuilder
All dislikes are from people who have been tapped by the deathsquad

Yeeeessss - Osssss
This content is a source of new insights. Reading a book with similar topics broadened my understanding. "Dominating Your Clock: Strategies for Professional and Personal Success" by Anthony Rivers
He is talking like a scientist.
Insanity is doing same thing over and over again and expecting different result
These guys should be required listening to one and all...Danaher is not a coach...he is a roadmap to acheivement....
"Showing up every day is not persistence" ....um, okay.
I learned this lesson too late
useless info, generic
What was useless about it? Also is there someone else you recommend listening to?
@@anoopchirackal8042 it's extremely broad, obvious information. everyone knows you have to incrementally increase your challenges when mastering a skill. i don't have anyone to recommend, sorry. finding good advice on mastery is really hard
