Today, we’ve got a question from a brand NEW BJJ White Belt.

He’s 36 years old, 5 feet 11, and 270 lbs. He’s a big fella.

During his first week of rolling, someone put a shin staple on him during one training session. The shin was just cutting into his arm, making it really painful. His training partner was super shocked by this.

He says he realizes he is just being a p***** & wonders how to make it hurt a lot less.

Most people come into Jiu-Jitsu with some level of naivety, and I’ll try to address the reality of it, especially for new people.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu hurts!

I’ll discuss this fact of BJJ life and more in this video.

If you’re having a similar problem as a newer grappler in BJJ then hopefully you found this video helpful. Thanks for watching.

Today, we’ve got a question from Gary, who is questioning the usefulness of traditional Jiu-Jitsu warmups.

He wanted to check out this other gym, which is known for its high-level BJJ competitors. When he went, he was surprised to learn that they do no warm-ups before getting into drilling.

This took him by surprise, especially since there were so many world-class competitors on the mats.

It also gave him some doubts about the 20–30-minute warmups at gyms.

This is a pretty common realization for guys who cross-train. Lots of people have different opinions about the topic, and in this video, I’ll give my perspective.

Thanks for watching.

Today we’ve got a question from Marcos, who sent me a message about a meniscus tear issue that he’s having.

He’s 42 years old, doing BJJ for 15 years, and getting ready to get a meniscectomy.

He is a bit on edge about having the procedure done, and since he knows I’ve had a similar issue from all the wear and tear on my knees from BJJ, he wonders how my knees feel and if I have any recommendations for post-procedure recovery.

Hopefully, you found this video helpful, especially if you’re someone else who finds themselves dealing with tight knees, injuries, or whatever other knee issues occur.

Thanks for watching.

Should Gi and No Gi Jiu-Jitsu Ranks Be Separated?

This is a question that I received from a viewer recently.

He recently saw a coach on the internet tying a belt around a student who didn’t seem to train in the Gi.

He questions this because of the various nuances and differences between the two similar but unique versions of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

Thanks for watching.

What’s up guys?

I want to talk about something that may be ruining your enjoyment of Jiu-Jitsu…

It’s an extremely frustrating MYTH, and I’m here to bust it.

This myth makes you feel like you’re getting worse, even when you’re definitely getting better.

I’m not going to go into too much detail here, but if you do BJJ and are feeling down about this particular issue, I hope you found this video helpful.

Thanks for watching.

Today we’ve got a question from devlostworkshop here on YouTube, and he says, “He bruv, I recently started doing Jiu-Jitsu. Do you have any tips or insight on how to improve your breathing?”

This is something he, and most newer people, deal with.

Most White Belts, including myself, struggle with it. I’ll give you a quick tip to help your breathing and instantly feel like you’ve increased your cardio capacity.

If you train BJJ, then hopefully, you found this video helpful.

Thanks for watching.

Recently, I got an email from “Bob,” a 54-year-old blue belt who trains at a more sport-oriented Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu gym.

During a roll with a young college wrestler in his 20s, he got injured, which has made him question whether he wants to continue training in BJJ.

With that in mind, he started looking into other options and found a Gracie University Jiu-Jitsu gym about 30 minutes from his house. He’s considering giving it a try.

He says there are aspects he likes, but he’s also concerned it might be a McDojo.

He reached out to ask what I think about Gracie University gyms.

So I give my bearded opinion on it. And if you train at a Gracie University gym, feel free to drop your comments with your experiences.

Hopefully, you guys enjoy the video. As always, thanks for watching!

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:

In today’s video me, and one of my students @brandonreed3x are going to go over some of our favorite Knee-Friendly Takedown options in BJJ and Wrestling.

Both Brandon and I were Wrestlers, both have also worked with lots of older grapplers in Jiu-Jitsu.

These 2 takedown options are great as they’re low risk and high reward wrestling for BJJ options.

Not only are you saving your knees, but they don’t put you at much risk for counter submissions, or at least not to the same degree as a Single Leg or Double Leg Takedown.

Hopefully, you guys found these takedown techniques useful.

Thanks for watching.

Today we’ve got a question from Mo, a Brown Belt.

He is an 11-year BJJ Brown Belt, a bit heavier. When he’s training at his gym, he’s able to do 10 rounds and train hard.

But, when he goes to another gym, especially with other heavy guys, he finds himself getting extremely tired.

He’s wondering what’s going on and what ideas I might have that could be helpful.

Hopefully, if you’re a big boy in Jiu-Jitsu and struggle with something similar, you find this helpful.

Thanks for watching.

Today, I got a question from Jill, a relatively new BJJ black belt. She recently shared one of my videos where I talk about not being the type of person who lectures someone out of submissions, only to start instructing them on how to finish it.

Her question was:

“As a black belt rolling with students, are there times when you pause to give instruction during a roll?”

I asked her if she was wondering where the line is between being helpful and being annoying.

She said yes. So, in this video I’ll discuss that!

Hopefully, you find this video helpful—thanks for watching!
