Episode 29 - Fight Chat with Jerry Liu of Fight Commentary Breakdowns
Jerry Liu of 'Fight Commentary Breakdowns' & 'FC Chats' stopped by for a great discussion. Jerry runs some popular YouTube channels but has been a life long martial artist from Kung Fu as a kid, to Kempo, Muay Thai, and BJJ as he continues his journey. Join us as we go the rounds and attempt to change one another's minds, or agree on topics such as:
Episode 28 - His Dark Roots - Interview with Stephen Kesting
What Can BJJ Teach Us About Qing Dynasty Martial Arts? - Randy Brown - MAS Conference 2019
This podcast is an ‘audio only’ re-recording of a talk I gave at the 5th Annual Martial Arts Studies Conference held at Chapman University in Los Angeles, California in May 2019. For a complete experience, I recommend watching the video version so you can see the slides.
The event was hosted by Dr. Paul Bowman, and Dr. Andrea Molle. A two day extravaganza of martial arts history, politics, and culture. There is amazing research into the martial arts taking place around the globe today. It was an honor to be a part of this significant event, and contribute in some small way to the Martial Arts Research Network. Below is a copy of the abstract submission for my talk at the conference to help lay context before listening.
Episode 09 - “I’m thinking of choking you…” - Pontificating over a hot mocha.
Episode 08 - The Pinnacle of Martial Arts - Emotional Control
Episode 01 - Hitting Plateaus in Martial Arts
Hitting plateaus in our training comes with the territory. There is no avoiding them. The longer we train martial arts, or any sport/activity that requires long periods of intense practice, we are destined to hit these stale periods in our progression.
Over the years I have hit many of these, and the longer I trained, the longer some of these lasted. Join me as Max catches up with me
