In this video I share 2 of the most important lessons or abilities Brazilian Jiu-jitsu gives to us for self defense situations that may arise outside of the gym.

I use a video of a store clerk who was attacked while working his shift one night.

During the encounter he is attacked and forced to defend himself using his grappling training.

As the 2 fight with one another the Brazilian Jiujitsu practitioner is eventually able to clinch with the attacker and apply a guillotine choke from the standing position.

I recently did another video where I talk about the fact that if you’re in a fight outside of the gym. Chokes should be something you focus on. Joint locks are great. But chokes will give you the finality by putting the person to sleep.

Going back to the video. I guarantee this young BJJ practitioner never practice being attacked behind a counter at his store.

But instead, the training from his Brazilian Jiu-jitsu gym help prepare him for the situation.

Now the tips I talk about in the video are not unique to BJJ. The training methodology is also used for Judo, Wrestling, Boxing, Muay Thai, Sambo, etc. All the combat sports share them.

I also believe this training method also applies to people who plan to use weapons like guns for self-defense. As I talk about in the video.

Talk to you guys next time!-

Have you ever had a situation in your BJJ gym that freaked you out to the point where you were scared to train?

I can’t say that I have, but I have had certain situations during my Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training that made it hard to do certain techniques.

Like the time I broke my nose when I went in for a takedown on the legs. My nose was broken in 3 places.

Afterwards anytime I was training BJJ I was gun shy about going for a takedown. Instead I would just pull Guard.

Overtime I was able to ease back into my takedowns and lower level shots for grappling by drilling them more and practicing with more experienced practitioners.

Eventually I was back to shooting on legs in hard training sessions and Brazilian Jiujitsu competitions.

I bring this up because I received a question from Gustavo, a BJJ White Belt, who was choked unconscious during his training and it really left an imprint on him.

He was fine afterwards. But the situation was somewhat traumatic and is really messing with his ability to train BJJ. Especially the rolling portion of class.

Watch the video to hear my explanation and stories.

Also, the book I reference. A Man’s Search for Meaning. You can get a copy by going here: https://amzn.to/2CMSFAs

Everyone should be a top player.

As sport BJJ has blown up, we have seen many athletes who have specialized in being “bottom players.” They specialize in closed guard, half guard, turtle guard, 50/50, etc. They will sit to guard and butt scoot their way around the mats. I have seen competitors race to the bottom by sitting immediately, where it is uncertain who is top and who is bottom.

Submission only tournaments, like EBI, have allowed these types of players to thrive, as they do not fear losing by points and embrace the bottom positions more. As someone who started martial arts for self defense purposes, this trend seems like BJJ jumped the shark.

Have you ever looked at some of the higher level people in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu and wondered if you could get to that point with your competition abilities?

This is the question from our friend George who is new to BJJ and wants to become a high level BJJ competitor. But his worry is that he is too old. He’s 18.

In this video I share the fact that I think it’s more than possible for him to become high level in Brazilian Jiujitsu if he goes after it. But ultimately what I think doesn’t matter.

What matters is that George takes action towards what he wants. That’s the only way he will find out if he can truly be a good Brazilian Jiujitsu competitor.

I also touch on the mental block that seems to be coming with our friend.

If you’re interested in being a BJJ competitor or have a dream that you’re chasing. I hope this video is useful to you.

Thanks for watching!

In this video I sit down and answer questions with Eli Knight and Jared Jessup. Both of which are Brazilian Jiu-jitsu Black belts under Royce Gracie.

You can find out more about these guys at the links below.
Eli Knight: https://www.youtube.com/user/eliknight173

Jared Jessup:
https://www.iqjiujitsu.com/

Here are the questions we answer:

1. How do Black Belts get stripes? (We also touch on their Blue Bars on their Black Belts)

2. What can you take away from BJJ for Self Defense even if they don’t focus on Self-Defense techniques all the time?

3. Should you accept a 2nd place medal if there were only 2 people in the tournament division.

4. How do you know what to teach in your BJJ classes and how to divide people up?

I hope that you enjoy the video and gain some cool perspectives from these knowledgeable and highly skilled Black Belts.

Jared and Eli come from different backgrounds in the BJJ community than I do. So it was fun talking and hearing out the various perspectives that they had on BJJ training and jiujitsu as a whole.

Martial arts is a competitive sport, so winning and losing can become important – especially if you have a big ego.

Winning is nice. It is an affirmation that you are doing things well.

Losing is okay. It lets you know that you need to make adjustments in your game.

They both have their place, but when your ego gets involved, it puts the blinders on and focuses purely on winning. It can make you fearful of losing, and start playing conservatively. Or, your ego just sees you at a certain position on the totem pole that requires you to beat x, y, and z to maintain your “status” at your academy. Sometimes you just get hooked on “winning” and don’t care about anything else.

What’s the problem with this?
When you are focused on only winning, you will naturally play your “A-Game” – your best techniques and strategies. This is great for competition and self defense scenarios, but not for growth.

Why? When you play your A-Game, you will not learn as much when sparring – especially if you have a lot of experience playing it. It is a game of diminishing returns. So the more time you spend using your A-Game, the less you will learn from it.
As a martial artist, our goal is to be prepared for any situation in combat. But when we play only one type of strategy, we are not working on rounding out our game. As a result, opponents will start to figure out the holes in your game and exploit them over time. You can see it in the fight world, where people who are once unbeatable get a hole exposed and then suddenly take a big fall.

The greats of our sport are always working on new skills, and evolving. That is why being a champion is hard. Everyone is studying you and trying to figure out how to beat you. The longer you are champ, the more they have to study. This is why evolving is very important. It keeps your opponents chasing the “new you” as you evolve. So they are always a step behind, as they can’t know whats changed until after the fight (unless they have a spy in your gym, which happens lol).

TLDR; The goal of training martial arts is to improve your ability to defend yourself from as many scenarios as possible. The bigger the improvement, the better the training. So if you have been using the same strategy for awhile and making it work well, switch to a new strategy. You will probably lose a lot initially, but eventually you will develop proficiency and fill that hole in your game and in the process you will learn a lot more.

So do not be afraid of losing, especially in training. In competition or self defense, use your A-game. But in training, allow yourself to use different strategies, techniques, and positions. It will make you a more well rounded martial artist.
