Today’s BJJ question is about using the triangle choke as a bigger person. Comes from our friend who says he’s a big guy and needs help finishing the triangle choke during rolling. So in this video I share some useful ideas on finishing the submission in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu.

The 1st one is that you DON’T have to have a full deep lock behind the knee with the triangle position. In fact, if you use your hamstring to finish the submission like I show in the video you’ll be able to finish it with a more shallow lock.

After that I show some ideas on setting up angles to finish and using the triangle choke not just as a submission but as a position that launch other attacks.

Hope the video is useful to you if you’re a bigger person trying to finish this submission.

In this podcast clip, BJJ World Champion Dominyka Obelenyte discusses struggling in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu early on. She talks about how she hated BJJ at one point because of the pressure to perform and eventually found a way to get into a more relaxed state of mind which allowed her to find her own game and eventually become a young BJJ Black Belt World Champion.

Today’s question comes from Jen who is struggling to retain information in BJJ and she would like to drill her Brazilian Jiu-jitsu techniques more to retain the information better. Only problem is that her only training partners currently are her boyfriend (who only likes to roll) and her coach.

So she sent me a question about how to retain information better. So in today’s Chewy ramble video I’ll explain an idea of active drilling and how to drill BJJ techniques even if your partner only wants to roll.

I share some experiences of my own and also a story about Bernardo Faria that I heard recently on a podcast.

I hope the video is helpful! I’ll talk to you next time.

Ever have trouble holding the mount position in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu? It used to be a big problem for me and I know a lot of people who struggle with it. So in this video I touch on a couple of simple ideas to chew on in order to make your mount position stronger.

In the video I show a modified position that allows me to attack armlocks but it’s also good for holding the mount position itself. The reason is that by going to the position that I show in the video I disable 2 of the necessary things a person needs to escape efficiently. Frames and hip power. Without these, escaping mount is going to be difficult.

This will allow you to hold the position longer and increase your chances of getting a submission.

So I hope this video helps Brett and hopefully it helps you too!

What is the difference from White Belt to Blue Belt and Brown Belt to Black Belt. That’s the question for today’s Q&A video. It’s an interesting one too. Because each belt / level of skill seems to have a certain pattern to it.

Going from White Belt to Blue Belt is one of the biggest shifts in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. You go from knowing nothing to having a foundation of knowledge. If it was a language it would be like not knowing a language to being able to speak.

Brown Belt to Black Belt is usually a bit more subtle. In my experience with BJJ people’s game at this point is set. It’s just in need of a bit of refinement and this is usually what you see at this level. Think of it as sanding out a piece of woodwork to get it a smooth finish.

Hopefully the video gives you some ideas to chew on for your own BJJ.

Have you ever wanted to make a shift to getting in shape and being a healthier person? Maybe just hit a big goal? We all have right? Well, this is is the basic question Gareth asked for the channel. He wanted to know when I made the shift to being a healthier person.

When he asked this question I really had to think a bit. But it started back in high school wrestling. And in this video I identify the multiple stages of how I lost weight, and got in better shape. This process that I illustrate in the video is also the same one I use for pretty much everything I’ve ever accomplished (that I’m proud of) in my life.

Keep in mind this is my way of doing thing. It may work for you, it may not. But give it a try and see it you find it useful.

Hopefully it’s useful to Gareth and anyone else.

In today’s BJJ video I’m going to show you a fundamental concept that EVERY guard passer should know and understand. Not some of them, all of them. This basic adjustment was huge when it came to finishing a guard pass and holding side control when I started to focus in on it.

Now it’s simple! Super simple. But understanding the idea of blocking the hip will make your Brazilian Jiu-jitsu much better in regards to holding side control and passing the guard.

Back in the day I didn’t understand this idea and I would often pass the guard and then the person on bottom of guard would immediately regain guard position.

Now you don’t need to drill this thing for hours and hours on end. Simply be mindful of it the next time you begin rolling.

The UFC heavyweight championship is on the line on August 15 when Stipe Miocic and Daniel Cormier complete their trilogy in the main event of UFC 252. In 2018, light heavyweight champion Cormier shocked the world when he stopped Miocic to become a two-division titlist. But Miocic evened the score with “DC” in emphatic fashion a year later, setting the stage for what promises to be an epic showdown between two of the best heavyweights of all-time.
