In this candid discussion, Rafa and Guilherme Mendes share their mental approach to competition anxiety, particularly before major tournaments. They explain how proper preparation is key to managing pre-fight nerves, emphasizing that doubt often creeps in when you feel undertrained. The brothers reveal that when negative thoughts arise – like worrying about losing or ending up on a magazine cover after being submitted – they counter these fears by reminding themselves of their intense training and preparation. This self-talk helps them transform anxiety into confidence, with the mantra “I trained so hard, I’m not going to lose” serving as their mental anchor before fights.#ConfidenceBuilding #FightPreparation #MindsetMatters #CombatSports #Nervousness #WorldFinals #AthleteMentality #TrainingHard #StayCalm #OvercomeFears

Today’s video question comes from a BJJ Black Belt who said he feels McDojo.

He said at his previous Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu gym he achieved a black belt in 7 years based off attendance. Now, he trains at a new gym and isn’t up to the skill of the BJJ practitioners there.

At this point the black belt is ruining his Jiu-jitsu training and completely sucking the fun out of it for him. To the point where he went from 4-5 days a week at his old gym to 1-2 days at the new gym, and if he does train he only does no gi so he doesn’t have to wear the belt.

I share some ideas for “Bob” in the video and if you’re experiencing a similar issue I hope it helps you as well.

Also, here’s the video about how I gave up my Purple Belt mentioned in the video:
