Description
In this episode of State of the Meta, Drew Foster sits down with Rob Biernacki to discuss the evolution of modern Jiu-Jitsu through the lens of the constraints-led approach and ecological dynamics. Rob explains how these methods have fueled his longevity and success at age 49, dives deep into the rapidly changing leg lock meta (including the Woj and Aoki locks), critiques the current camping-passing trend, and shares insights on teaching, culture, and training smarter for both gi and no-gi athletes.
