Today we’ve got a question from a bigger White Belt named Lee.

He’s been training for about a year and is finally climbing up the “pecking order”, especially for the less experienced guys in the room.

At this point he is finally getting the better of the newer white belts, but he has a question about rolling with them.

He wonders if he should allow them to work a little bit, which is what he says he does now, or if he should I just roll like “normal” and go after them.

He doesn’t want to seem overconfident or arrogant though, and so he’s not sure if “letting them work” is a good look.

Lee is also wondering what my philosophy is when I roll with less experienced grapplers or brand-new white belts.

In this video I’ll answer Lee’s initial question & share with you guys how I go about training with less experienced people in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and how I get the most out of the roll: both helping that person grown & making myself better at the same time.

Hopefully this video answers your question Lee, and if any of you had a similar question then I hope you found it helpful too!

Today’s video comes from a Blue Belt who has recently had a weird situation at him BJJ gym.

Recently a brand new White Belt started training. And it just so happens that this white belt has history with Jason. . . not good history either! Apparently, the guy bullied Jason around and ended up stealing money from him.

Now, Jason said he tried to leave those feelings outside of the gym since Brazilian Jiu-jitsu is something he does to get away from the craziness of the outside world. Well, the white belt started talking negatively about Jason. Not in the fun we’re-friends-trash-talking, but in a bullying way.

So he sends in a message to see if I could give him a useful perspective that could help with the situation.

Hope you enjoy the video. Thanks for watching!

Today we’ve got a question from “Magic Moses” who sends in a question, which is:

“Chewy should you have to pay for a belt promotion? My gym charges $150 per promotion, and I think that’s ridiculous. In that case, I don’t want to be promoted.”

In the video I will share my philosophy and my idea on how belt promotion should work, but of course this is my way of doing things and not necessarily the right or wrong way.

I also explain why I think there may be some justifiable reasons that students are charged for it, and other reasons why I think students in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu are just hosed for it.

I’ve seen BJJ belt promotions range widely in prices, from coaches charging $50 for a stripe & up to $500 for a brown/black belt (which is just ridiculous).

Now, the way I look at the philosophy of owning a gym business, is that I’m trying to offer my students something, and trying to balance that with what I am asking for in return.

So, if I’m throwing some big event for a belt promotion, or offering X amount of service for less pay, than it’s valued for, then it starts making sense to charge.

I’ll also talk a bit more about the business side of owning a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu gym, and how underpricing in general can actually kill your business.

There’s a lot of nuances to the whole paid promotion thing, so in this video I’ll try to break it down as precisely as possible for you guys.

Hopefully you found the ideas in this video helpful.

Today we have a question from Dan, a former high school and college Wrestler, who has recently got into Jiu-Jitsu, and so naturally he asks:

What advice would you give a Wrestler getting into Jiu-Jitsu?

The most important piece of advice I could give a Wrestler in Jiu-Jitsu is this:

Go to the place no Wrestler wants to be when they start Jiu-Jitsu…

Play off your BACK and learn how to play guard!

In the video, I’ll give you a few reasons WHY you need to this in order to progress as far as possible in Jiu-Jitsu.

I’ll also talk about abandoning the idea of being a “Wrestler” and how holding on to this will actually hurt you and not help you as a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioner.

You’re not a Wrestler anymore. You have to be open minded and this self-identification as a “Wrestler” can be a very limiting factor for our Jiu-Jitsu.

You are now a Submission Grappler, a Jiu-Jitsu practitioner, who needs to understand the ground game, submissions, etc.

Also, you’ll need to consider the fact that there are many great Wrestlers in Jiu-Jitsu, who you will probably never out wrestle. Therefore, you’re going to need to develop a game that allows you to beat those guys, even if there are only a few of them, when you meet in competition.

You want to have a well-rounded versatile game, so that no matter where you get put, whether you’re taken down or swept, you are as comfortable as you can possibly be.

Quiete often people come into the game with a Wrestling pedigree, and once put on bottom, they completely fold because of their once sided training methodology.

If you’re a Wrestler getting into Jiu-Jitsu, I hope you found the ideas in this video helpful. You’ll get far taking the initiative to get out of your comfort zone!

#UFC #UFC296

What’s up guys,

So, today our question comes from “Army Mike” who is having trouble finishing a Collar Choke from the back.

This is a pretty common problem for those of us who are a bit less experienced with the position, so if you’re struggling with the finish here are 4 powerful adjustments to help you finish more Collar Chokes from the back in Gi Jiu-Jitsu.

The 4 tips I show are the ones that I have found the most useful for me, and although they’re simple, they are also very effective.

Hopefully if you’re having a similar issue while training BJJ, then this video was useful to you.

Today’s video is a question that every bigger, stronger person will “grapple” with in BJJ.

How to not use so much strength in BJJ!

So 1st off I don’t think the goal is to not use strength. . . or that it’s even possible. We are all going to use a little strength. The key is to use it at the right time, in the right way, and be efficient with.

In today’s video I share a simple process I implemented during my BJJ training, as a bigger guy, to be more efficient with my use of strength. And while this idea applies to bigger stronger people you could easily apply it to almost any area of focus in BJJ.

Hope the video helps if you had a similar question.

Thanks for watching!
