In this episode of The John Hallett Podcast, we tackle one of the most important—but often overlooked—principles in self-defense training: how to prioritize your training time.

Whether you're a beginner or advanced, how you divide your time determines whether you actually get better or just stay busy. If you want real-world skills that hold up under pressure, you’ve got to train with purpose.

⛓ The Hierarchy of Self-Defense Training

Here’s the ClearSky training breakdown John shared:

🥇 30% – Self-Defense Techniques (High Probability Attacks)
  • Chokes (rear, wall, ground)
  • Bear hugs, grabs, weapon threats
  • Escape & evasion drills
“Train for what actually happens, not what you hope will happen.”🥈 25% – Combatives (Striking & Movement)
  • Punches, elbows, knees, kicks
  • Pad work, angles, footwork
“Your hands are your first weapons. But if you don’t train your timing—you won’t land a single one when it counts.”🥉 25% – Ground Fighting & Grappling
  • Escapes (mount, guard, side)
  • Takedown defense, stand-ups
“The ground is a brutal place if you don’t know what you’re doing.”💪 10% – Fitness & Strength
  • Conditioning, explosiveness
  • Endurance drills
“If your skills fade when you’re tired, what’s the point? Fitness is the gas that keeps you in the fight.”🧠 10% – Mindset, Law & Awareness
  • De-escalation, legal use of force
  • Tactical breathing, situational awareness
“Your mindset wins fights. If your brain shuts down, so does your body.”🎙️ Real Talk From the Mat
  • On unrealistic training partners: “Hey man, I like you—but you're going too hard. I’m here to learn, not survive you.”
  • On repetition: “Want to be a great striker? Try 10,000 reps. On a bag. At home. At the gym. That’s how black belts are made.”
  • On training priorities: “Cool techniques don’t matter if you can’t breathe or recover under pressure.”
  • On mindset: “If my arm gets blown off in combat, I’ll pick it up and beat you with it. That’s the level of mindset we want.”
💡 Takeaways
  • Train what’s most likely to happen. Not what looks cool.
  • Condition your body AND your brain. Don’t gas out mentally or physically.
  • Stay humble. Train often. Online or in-person—just train.
