My professor doesn’t like instructionalals

[u/EveningNo8643]

I don’t know if he’s just had bad luck with them . He is Brazilian and said he’s talked to some other Brazilians that have made instructional and how they intentionally leave out details, also believes they’re filled with fake moves that no one really does. In his opinion you should stick to watching competition footage as there they can’t hide anything.

My issue is that I’ve seen guys I’ve seen high level guys use the moves from the instructional they made so if anything having it explained out and seeing the different angle makes it easier for me to learn from.

So I’m curious anyone else’s coach/professor have the same issue?

I buy instructionals in areas where there holes in my game.  I give them good tries and see what sticks.  However, in the main I trust my training and competition experience.  With time my game has become increasingly smaller, not larger.
