Are you a failure when you tap out in Jiu Jitsu?
BJJ Dirty Dozen member David Meyer was a newly promoted Rigan Machado black belt who was struggling on the mats. He was so nervous about being bested by anyone since becoming a black belt that became all he could think about. That was until Rigan said, David, I give you permission to tap. After hearing those words David looked at the tap in a whole new way.
On this Takeaway, Thomas and Gary discuss the different ways people look at tapping and how tapping can be beneficial to your Jiu Jitsu.
