Hosts Scott Dance and Michael Sutherland break down a 90-minute competition-oriented jiu-jitsu class, explaining the curriculum design and coaching intent behind each segment: a cascading warm-up, skill-based games, guard work, pin-to-submit progressions and a final "king of the hill" endurance/competitive block.The episode covers specific drills (takedown grit, scramble-to-top rules, standing-guard exchanges, knee‑pass pocket work, side-control finishing), teaching principles (simplified win conditions, offense-first mindset, situational practice, stress inoculation) and how to make the most of limited mat time with large groups.Listeners also get coaching tips for competitors, guidance for students adapting unfamiliar drills to their style, and a closing "Combat Confession" news story for a lighter wrap-up. This is Part 1 of a deeper look into class construction and training strategy.Check us out and submit Combat Confessions at: www.fdcpodcast.com Please remember to follow, rate and review!or Support the show on our PatreonWant more from Fighters Drinking Coffee:Follow us on instagram: @fightersdrinkingcoffee   Join our discord: https://discord.gg/UPmxwuwXks
