3:38:55 - Closing Gratitude.
59 year old, started 2 months ago at a Relson academy. I am overweight and the oldest guy there. The first month I felt badly beat up, my knees ached, it took a full day in between to recover…but I LOVE IT ! After 2 months, my knees are fine with proper stretching and my recovery time keeps getting shorter. I hope to be a good training partner, get some great exercise, make some wonderful friends, and be a learning sponge. Get my black belt by 70 ?….who knows, but what a great journey !
You are badass! Go get that black beltch!
Keep at it for all the old guys are with you in spirit my brotha!
Thats the spirit man!!
Protect your neck from one old guy to another-)
As the Aussies say, 'Goodonyamate, 'avago!'
“When you are ready to die, then you are ready to live.”
-Rickson.
Damn that’s so simple and yet so deep.
Fantastic!
haven’t gotten to that part but the way I’ve been treating my life this really resonated w me. It’s time to start living.
If Rickson calls it a gun machine…then dammit….it’s a gun machine 😂
LOL
😂🤣🤣🖤
Omg I died 😂😂😂😂😂
Hey, it's a gun, and it's a machine. It's a gun-machine alright. We use the portuguese equivalent for SMGs, LMGs and assault rifles in general anyway, all of them, metralhadoras.
🤣🤣🤣
Around 2006, during a class taught by Rickson, he stopped and said “we no gonna train today, we gonna praktix our breath.” And so, that’s all we did, the point being to “stay calm and don’t panic when a guy 50 pounds heavier trying to choke you. There’s a way out, no panic…and I don’t mean that jus for the mat, I mean that for life.”
Words from Rickson that solidified his place in my life as a mentor, helping me in my marriage, fatherhood, career, and of course Jiu Jitsu.
Thank you for relating this episode, doc
praktix haha
Awesome.
so...you're saying your wife outweighs you by 50 lbs,..and she tried to choke you?....and Gracie Jiu Jitsu helped you survive?
GOD SOWS SEEDS IN DARK PLACES! STAY CALM!( Matthew 8:23-27) 💪🙏💪
I swear i never clicked so fast when i seen Rickson and Jocko together. Rickson is a LEGEND
Had to rub my eyes to make sure it wasn't a mirage.
This.
Even me both ofjocko&carcei&ilove both.
I clicked so fast I almost broke my finger, sprained my wrist, and dislocated my shoulder. It was an intense moment
Shaking my head up and down smiling
“Master the Basics.” Another Rickson staple, applies to life.
Úuui
Best words to live by in any line of work/play.
@* Toxic Reviews * ok, I heard from Rickson, but whoever gave it, even if it was Ghandi, still great advice.
Sun Tzu said is better and more
Holy shit, Jocko really ambushed us with this episode!
Jocko out here just casually dropping three and a half hours with RICKSON FREAKING GRACIE

announced 2 days ago on FB
@@JuanRuiz-ji6ug Haven't been on FB in years
I'm guessing he was grappling with this for a while.
Respect to Echo for being a fly on the wall and letting these masters talk 👊🏽
One master. Rickson
Very feel anchors can do that. Very observing
@@paulnhbtx713 pfft jocko isn't a master? MASTER OF DISCIPLINE
Yes, I was going to say - one grandmaster Rickson Gracie. One great guy and great professor, jocko willink.
This one was on my bucket list of Olympian level podcast episodes. Thanks, Jocko and Echo Charles for bringing this biographical documentary to us.
GOD SOWS SEEDS IN DARK PLACES! STAY CALM!( Matthew 8:23-27) 💪🙏💪
I know absolutely nothing about Jiu Jitsu, but I am fascinated listening to Rickson talk about it.
Time to start training!
If Rickson fascinates you then John Danaher might blow your mind when he speaks about Jiu Jitsu.
@@Fallahh Danaher figured out the system and Rickson figured out the connection. Danaher just ended up being a better teacher because he's a teacher and know philosophy.
@@lightning7582 No disrespect towards Rickson was meant in my reply, just simply bringing up John Danaher, if he is unfamiliar with JiuJitsu and was curious to learn more, Danaher is a great philosopher of the art. John Danaher always credits Renzo Gracie and the whole clan for pioneering the sport as well.
Jiu Jitsu is life.
After reading Musashi by Eiji Yoshikawa and listening to this, I feel like Rickson is the modern day Miyamoto Musashi. An undefeated samurai, strategist and philosopher living by the bushido code.
Good observation. I agree, important book. Rickson is like the modern day embodiment of Musashi for sure.
Totally agreed 👍
word !!!
I train Kenjutsu (actually the style funded by Miyamoto Musashi Sensei) in Brazil for 20 years now (at Niten Institute, Jorge Kishikawa Sensei). It's very different from Jiu-Jitsu but I can relate with all Mr. Gracie is talking about. In a intuitive way, it is pure Bushido. Like when he's talking about never running up his brother Rolls in tournaments or when he talks about always putting yourself in the hardest position. A true warrior master.
You have a feint image of Musashi that could never live up to the person himself.
The level of humility is unbelievable! A true legend…
yep when you mentally/spiritually get closer to the no BS line, you can't but be humble.
“Know the path broadly and you will see it in all things.”
~Miyamoto Musashi
I wonder what people like Musashi think about modern day 'warriors/fighters'
@@Meruem4 I would say it brings him honor to see hearts full of fire to this day in age of weakness and tolerance. Many great warriors realize that time and society is constantly changing and so shall the ways of fighting.
That's cool. Is it in 5 rings?
This episode might be the single greatest podcast ever released on any platform to date. OSS.
@Justin Moore the disrespect 😤
How could anyone give this a thumbs down? This is in the top 5 Jocko episodes of all times, thank you for this Echo, Jocko, and Rickson.
I was thinking the same. As in, what's the thought process of the type of person to dislike free content of this magnitude? What are those people like to spend time around or live with? They're the type of person that thinks they come off really cool when they, unsolicited, tell people nearby all the stuff they can't stand or tell people what popular things are "actually kinda lame."
I’m a new listener. What are the other top 4 I should seek out?
I was born in Rio in 89 and lived all over Brazil until I left in 2012. My mother was acquaintanced with most of the Gracie family and hung out with them in several occasions, every once in a while she would tell me about them when I was a kid. I discovered Jocko's on his first or second podcast episode and now I'm seeing Rickson on Jocko's podcast. This is like seeing people from two parallel universes get together, what a cool thing.
These podcasts helped me get through the 5-4 shifts, I used to feel like a loser having to work at 5am but Jocko made it cool to get up that early to work. After a year, I decided to quit that job to go to college and I still happen to listen regardless.
Respect my friend. Hope it’s going well
your never a loser for working brotha. no matter what, where or when you do it!
Try working 7p to 7a at 58 and older.
I go in 5 a.m. by choice. Not easy to do. You're definitely not a loser
Same here I listen during long commutes
Im gonna be honest. I NEVER saw Jocko laughing/smiling this much in any episode. 😂
Never!
Jocko's much more frequent laughs almost seem a bit deferential to Rickson's bad ass quotient. People tend to laugh when the human Silverback in the room makes a joke. If not that, then at least Jocko sees the two of them as disparate branches affixed to the same tree of warriordom. That's saying something.
Loool so excited
Because the legend Rickson Gracie kept saying things he's said a million times before on the podcast. He's smiling at his audience like, "see?"
Watch his podcast with Theo 🙏🏻
I remember when Fabio would bring Dean, Jocko and Jeff Higgs up to the Pico acadamy to train. I was fortunate to be in that first generation of students that got to train daily with Rickson in his prime and witness many of the stories they talk about.
Professor Akins, are you ever gonna tell the internet the gym stories? I read from the internet a story that you told where Rickson made a world champ tap from side control pressure.
I watch Kama Jiujitsu videos, and Prof Ryan Young says that Dave is the best blackbelt produced by Rickson in his opinion.
Do you share that sentiment? What would a roll between you and Kama be like?
Rolling-wise, who is Rickson's top blackbelt in your opinion?
@kantarakornsna Marcelo Behring
@@SamSam-80 hey troll you can ask marcelo behring, im pretty sure you can found him on Instagram
Mate ...you also are a Legend.
@@jorgep102 he’s past away. I train at a Flavio Behring school
This man and his family deserve The Presidential Medal of Freedom for their contribution
The story on Rockson is tough to listen to. Who knew this story was so intense and incredibly personal? Rickson is truly a real samurai. Only the greatest son of helio Gracie could admit so many humbling things.
2 Scholars speaking about discipline,life experiences is a gem here on UA-cam. Thank you for this podcast 🙏
Hell yeah brother!!!
Y
Talk about a couple of guys truly worthy of your respect!
There's 3 black belts in that room
@@justjsse8917 Rickson is Red Now
History-making conversations on Jocko's podcast. This is at the top of the list.
How do we get Jocko to narrate the whole audio book? What amount of money would need to be paid to make that a possibility? Anyone else want that to happen?
As a Jiu Jitsu practitioner, I feel this episode is necessary as a history lesson from someone so deeply involved. Very interesting episode 😄
Rickson underwent to a very impressive Arc of Growth. In a certain sense, those who follow him, can clearly understand how he evolved from the pure physical fighting technique to a secular spiritual way of life. In a certain sense, he really looks like Musashi in his journey from _JITSU to DO_
“Japan lost their soul when they lost the war, they lost the attitude of the samurai… they became more like servants in complying with the energy of the rest of the universe”
I’ve never heard someone put it like that. A very honest and unique perspective that can also be a metaphor for life. When we’re young we’re full of passion and hope and energy but as we become more accustom to failure and tribulations, we lose sight of the person we once were. We’d much rather try to fit in rather than stand out and push the needle in a different direction because our confidence over the years has waned from feeling like we failed to accomplish the mission we initially set out to do.
Rickson and Wim Hof were on parallel paths, on their own, learning the power of breathwork and cold exposure. Epic podcast!
My man.. I West to wim's podcast and told him to make a podcast with Rickson... how awsome would that be?!
@@rafawitsel8690 That would be a very good podcast
“See’s Rickson Gracie”
Me: omgomgomg
Now I know how the military guys must feel when Jocko brings on military legends like Dakota Meyer, Mike Thornton, and John Stryker Meyer. Rickson is the Michael Jordan of jiu jitsu and to be able to watch him converse with an OG bjj black belt like Jocko for 3.5 hours is amazing!!
Mind blown already, and I haven't even started to listen yet!
First podcast I've ever listened to from beginning to end. Rickson is a legend. His attitude towards all things is the attitude of a real man. God bless him.
First podcast I’ve ever listened to from beginning to end. Rick is a real samurai ,his attitude towards all thing is the attitude of a real fighter
This is possibly one of Jocko’s best podcast ever! This will go down in history. I was impressed by this one from the very start to the very end. This will be on heavy rotation in my playlist! But seriously, anyone training Jiujitsu, this should be mandatory listening no matter what level you are!! I feel like I earned 2 more stripes just by listening to this, j/k.
It was epic to hear about Rolls Gracie! I always wanted to know more about him. Rolls taught my Jiujitsu professor, Charles Gracie whom I received my blue belt under back in 2011.
Man hearing about Helio Gracie is insane, the fact that he was able to hold his own and do well against much bigger guys is incredible
Exaggerated a bit, I imagine
Yeah there are quite a few accounts of this story that puts into question just how small and fragile Helio was, don’t get me wrong I have nothing but respect for the Gracies for there is a bit of folk lore is some of their accounts I’m sure
@@MMA_Jackal just a lot of practix
It's all so exaggerated there are pictures of the guy looking like an athlete, lean and muscular. He was no 130 pounds..
@@respeezy and he was also much taller than Carlos.
I started out under Rickson in the late 90's - I will vouch for his prowess on the mat. Even when he warmed up class, I swear he floated across the mat! So smooth it was unreal to witness and to this day I smh when I think about it.
@* Toxic Reviews * username checks out 😂 that was cold g
Hespect
@* Toxic Reviews * You don't have first hand experience training with him do you? So how would you know? Believe what everyone say's? Your comment says more about yourself, it must suck being you everyday! "smh".
Is Rickson that good at jiu-jitsu? Because I have never seen a video of him against big black belts, but only against novices. Simple question
@@SamSam-80 ...
Yes.
That's like asking if Alexander was great.
Yes.
If anything, his achievements have been watered down with time.
This is what is great about internet. Wise words of wisdom from the other side of the world from the mouths of people whom I would probably never know otherwise - into my ears in this late evening to improve my thinking and to better my and my family's life for sure. Thank you for all episodes and especially this one!
Best two years of my life when I’d show up on Tuesday and Thursday nights and Rickson was there teaching both nights. Miss the old Wilshire Academy and all the characters we had there.

@@SamSam-80 he really is, but not only just good at it, he’s amazing at teaching it.
Have you seen him Rolled with big black belts in training?
@@SamSam-80little late to answer but I have. I seen him play with all the black belts champs from that era such as Gurgel, Ribeiros, Margarida and more that would stop by the Pico Blvd Academy.
Just pre ordered Breathe. Can’t wait for it. Thanks for all your knowledge Rickson
How was it
@@unkownboi67is_unavailable62 He is still waiting for it XD
The BJJ GOAT himself. Legit.
Don’t forget to mention rickson Gracie too ..
@@solidsnake3949 yikes bro..
@Solaris Starborne - Marcelo Garcia, GOAT! Rickson, 400-0.
Gordon ryan is the goat.
Marvel: Avengers End Game is the most epic cross-over ever.
Jocko & Rickson: here, hold my Discipline Go can...
lol
That was lame man! 😅
Around a decade ago I was dealing with a lot of anger issues so I moved out of the US into the favelas in Rio. I obtained a full time job at a soda bottling factory working on the assembly line. I met Rickson not long after and would have private breathing lessons from him regularly. He taught me much and I'll never forget our experience together

Did you just recite the first third of the plot of The Incredible Hulk?
@@kicksandtravels lol
This is probably one of the wisest man on the planet. His way to articulate certain things is just out of this world.
lol on the planet
Just a meathead
I love hearing Rickson say the word “strategize”
And “practice” lol
2:38:30 Heavy part of the podcast about his son’s death; Rickson later talks about how he dealt with it and how it changed him
This man deserves his flowers while he can still smell em!
A real one 💯
This might be the greatest interview of all time, this needs to be taught at every school in the world, unbelievable...i feel honored to listen to it
Rickson Gracie is the most legendary Gracie imo. I Love listening to Rickson speak because he is so intelligent with unrivaled wisdom. I literally learn something new everytime I have the privilege of hearing Rickson speak and I am so grateful he exists.
GOD SOWS SEEDS IN DARK PLACES! STAY CALM!( Matthew 8:23-27) 💪🙏💪
Rolls Gracie died at such a young age, but he and Rickson were two great warriors.
I want to save this for my grandson for when he is old enough to understand. Deep deep wisdom. Excellent.
When we learn to control our emotions we can then allow ourselves to be guided by our heart
At 31 years old, I just completed my beginners bjj class, now I’m starting gi training this week. Thanks Jocko, because of the show I got interested and started a new journey!
How is it going? I'm 32, currently on the fourth week of a 10-week beginners class, after which I'll be joining the gi training!
@@mathscream it’s going great, I’m loving the local gym. They’re amazing to roll with and the instructor is the highest ranked in the city. Been a good experience so far!
1:16:35 After following that breathing I actually felt better! Thanks Rickson!
Reminder to try this
The MOST IMPORTANT part of the entire podcast, left out of the cut. Thank you sir.
I'm 64yrs old training at Victory MMA in San Diego. I suffer from rumathoid arthritis and training is painful. But I'm a old Marine and I embrace the struggle.
A warrior in his own right, Rickson would’ve also made one hell of a SEAL team member.
@* Toxic Reviews * that's hilarious that you think seals don't have egos
@@MM-eo2oz damn really? i was thinking about going to Rio and training bjj
Modern day gladiators, could feel the energy through the screen. 🤘🏼
This is the start to my Wednesday I needed!
Proud of Rickson for talking about his son that he lost... he took it hard for a long time. Pedro Sauer told us he disappeared completely
When he tells the story of his sons death and the Tattoo I broke down bad . I was in the park walking my dog listening to this and all of a sudden I became a ball of tears my dog looked concerned and confused. That was so powerful being a father myself and of course being a son . 💙 amazing podcast thank you Jocko
I trained w Rickson in the early 90s in Pico and my first class with him was amazing. It was a private lesson with him and I was so nervous because I knew he was the greatest , he told me relax my friend. He obviously felt my nervousness and tension. He always made me feel like a child on the mat.
Is Rickson that good at jiu-jitsu? Because I have never seen a video of him against big black belts, but only against novices. Simple question
@@SamSam-80 I’ve seen him train with big black black belts, former Olympic Heavyweight wrestler from Greece, top Black belts in their prime and he really was that good. I know it’s hard to believe because there is not much video of him but he really was amazing.
"I began to see jiu-jitsu everywhere, in everything." Initially that makes you an enthusiast, even a fanatic. Later you may become obedient to the principles, a devotee. Ultimately you may give and receive always -- you are never out of your depth.
In the late 90s when I first got into Jiu-Jitsu, a friend gave me his copy of the Rickson documentary called "Choke" to watch. Needless to say, he greatly influenced my own Jiu-Jitsu journey to this day. I like that his book is called "Breathe", a contrast to "Choke"! Rickson is a legit warrior in every way (as is Jocko). This was a great podcast. Oss!!
WOW, didn't even see the cool duality of Breathe vs Choke. Very cool. Four years in myself, lucky you! Got to start in the 90s =)
“In a blind mans world, guy with one eye is king” -Rickson Gracie
This LINE is Very popular in Brazil
Em terra de cego quem tem olho é rei
PLEASE, have him on your show again to talk about “invisible Jiu Jitsu”.
there is no invisible jiu jitsu. There are only skills and small adjustments to your position that you dont have enough experience to see or verbalise yet.
@@prandz420 I don't think you know what the guy is talking about.
@@prandz420 uh...hes talking about subtle angles, movements, ways to change pressure...slight adjustments etc that's not possible to see or be shown.....its the application and accuracy of the performance of the technique thats is superior...for example...Rickson and jocko both do the same choke on the same person....to the eyes...both "appear " to be doing the same thing but why is Ricksons submittion far superior 🤔
its because of the lifetime of perfecting each and every tiny detail of the choke ...things you can not see ...only be learned by being explained to in depth while finding out for yourself...the way he feels superior when he's in Mount or side control is because of the nuances of his application of techniques and there's a reason everyone says he's the best
Yuri Teixeira Mendes yes I do I’ve been training bjj for over a decade. Invisible jiu jitsu doesn’t exist. It’s just a skill level you haven’t reached and the instructor cannot verbalise. Rickson himself can’t explain these subtle details so he just calls it invisible jiu jitsu. There is no magic here.
Gareth Llewellyn yep that’s pretty much what I said lol. Nothing invisible about it. It just seems invisible to people like you who haven’t trained much. Nothing magic or invisible about it you just have to train more and pick up the details over many years.
WOW!!! Speechless. Not just because I'm in awe but also because Rickson is speaking and when the master speaks I better listen. Gonna go back and watch "Choke" for the millionth time. Awesome doc about Rickson and his Vale Tudo fights in Japan. If you've never seen it I fully recommend. It's here on UA-cam.
Saw the Takada fight while living in Fukuoka Japan, truly epic. That’s all my English students talked about for the next two weeks. The Japanese have much respect for Rickson.
Man Jocko...McRaven, Glover, Maguire, and now Rickson. No pressure on 294.
37:42 the way rickson pronounced burrito made my week
Facing your fears is essential.
Probably one of the greattests podcasts on UA-cam right now 💪
THAT was one good podcast! Rickson is a fascinating individual, and Jocko is an expert interviewer, never interrupting and asking the right questions at the right time.
Excellence!
Simply the most powerful podcast i have ever watch, they are both the definition of what it means to be human.
The fluidity and amount of pressure that a really good Jiu Jitsu practitioner can apply is truly amazing. And it’s really hard to explain.
For me, Rickson is the greatest Gracie. I just watched his documentary called Choke. I was glued to my TV. His philosophies have really inspired me.
My 6th time watching this interview. Rickson is a true master. So much knowledge comes from him.
34 minutes in and I feel like I've just learned about a courses worth of philosophy and psychology lol.
Man…the way Jocko reads the part about Rickson son when he passed away. Really hits the heart.
Gotta love Rickson.
The honor Rickson had for Rolls, amazing!
Old school shit.
History.
Well I’m buying that book now for sure
i got it on audible after seeing it on a clip. good read
Rickson is the man and…..truly….the last Samurai; looking forward to meet him one day.
Alright so... can we PLEASE get the audiobook version of this narrated by Jocko!? I could listen to this forever. OSS!
This episode deserves to be enshrined in gold and sent into space to represent the wisdom, nobility, courage and excellence that humanity can achieve.
“Base!” A Rickson staple. Applies to life.
Got to be one of the best podcasts ever. I love how animated Jocko and Echo were during the supporch section at the end (almost deserves a longer "breakdown" podcast of its own). So much henergy lol.
I got submitted 3 times in 5 minutes with hard chokes by an older Hispanic black belt dude today. I'm no spring chicken at 33 but I am very strong at 6'3 250 lbs and this old guy whooped my butt lol. Only been doing bjj like 2 weeks but I've been doing all the classes and live rolls trying to get good, fast. Throat effing hurts. Honestly thought about quitting. But then I heard this podcast when Rickson said his greatest enemy was his mind. Having a poor mindset like I do right now. I'm inspired to keep at it and keep working hard. What a great podcast I think I'll buy his book!
Best interview I ever seen! 3 hrs and never bored! Great job and Rickson is a true inspiration and legend.
"it goes fast when we enjoy" It sure does Rickson, I feel this every time I step off the mat
Amazing episode. Master Rickson is the GOAT no questions. Thank you Master Rickson for all you've done for jiujitsu.
I trained a bit at Ricksons academy. Unbelievablely amazing times. I also trained at the Gracie academy in Torrance. Got to roll with Ralek whilst the great Helio was sitting on a chair on the mat. He watched for what seemed like an eternity as Ralek beat my ass. He was 5 years my junior and I out weighed him by maybe 40 pounds! I stood no chance but it was still my pleasure and honor. Mad love to the entire Gracie family.
This is legit like a podcast with Miyamoto Musashi and Hatori Hanzo
We see how quickly Echo uplands this episode! No biases with this guest
“You have to always be learning new techniques, while consistently reaffirming the fundamentals”
crazy how this only has 120k views, Jocko is great at interviewing and Rickson is an absolute legend
Congratulations, Jocko! What great job writing the foreword of “Breathe”
This was just so incredible to hear. Culture. Pride. Craftsmanship. Beautiful.
Yeah, Jocko really has gone clear with this one. Well done to the entire team involved in this 🚀
Just bought 2 books. One for myself and one for my wife. I travel a lot so we can’t share. We both listen to the Jocko podcast and we’re wanting to get our daughter and ourselves into Jiu Jitsu. Turns out there is a Gracie academy close to us. Can’t wait to get started!!!
I’m a fan of a few podcasts but you sir are my favorite for a few reasons! One is that you give so much honor and respect to the one you interviewed and the many hero’s you share with us but most importantly you allow them to talk without trying to speak for them you just allow it to happen! Much respect to you sir and I only wish I was able and close enough to train with some of you it’s an honor to be a student of this great life only when we can share it with honorable people! Thank you for your sacrifice to country and the people of the world! Job well done seal not that you need any reassurance! I hope you have many years left with us!
I remember the classes at the Pico studio which was shared with a Shotokan school back in the day! It was behind the Martial Arts store KI. I lived only blocks away at the time. I also remember the Wilshire school near Barrington. This was by far one of the best interviews I have ever heard. I have a poster of Helio in my home which I look at every day. It’s very inspiring! God Bless the Gracies! Be well!
Granted I have many, many Jocko podcasts yet to hear. This one got more spiritual than any I’ve heard thus far. So good.
Wow, glad I stumbled across this today. So many powerful things I appreciate about Rickson. He seems like such a well-rounded impressive individual. You can tell he's highly intelligent. He's able to talk about virtually every experience he's ever had and what he took away and learnt from it, and in such detail that you know he's not just rattling off clichéd life lessons. He breaks things down with such clarity as well, even basic thoughts are told with such precision that you can't help but see them from a new, much clearer, perspective. I lived in Brazil for a few years so also love how much of a thoroughlt carioca guy he comes across as, from his skin tone, to his accent, to his easy going nature. What a life, what a guy.
