We had a viewer ask a question on our Unspoken Rules of Jiu-jitsu video and asked about starting jiu-jitsu and being a big guy. He was generally concerned he would hurt his training partners. We discuss our thoughts on the situation here with 2 black belts and a smaller female grappler to get some different perspectives.

In today’s video I share a quick story from a BJJ training session with a Crossfit athlete who was also a college wrestler, and has also did some Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. Because of his wrestling base he definitely gave me a unique look and shut down my Half Guard game. Every time I’d come up for a sweep I just couldn’t quite finish it. Instead I had to switch up to Butterfly Guard to get a sweep.

I share this with you because the problem solving mindset I have when I train with people like that is not the one I’ve always had. And if you’re a BJJ practitioner yourself you definitely need to maintain that mindset, especially against people with certain attributes that give you trouble.

Here’s his instagram page in case you want to check him out: https://www.instagram.com/blacksmifff/

I say this because all to often I hear BJJ players make excuses as to why something doesn’t work like, “Oh they’re just strong.” You don’t want to be one of these people.

I also give you an update on how my weight loss is going. Currently I’m down to about 200-202 in the morning and have lost around 10lbs and it’s steadily declining. More on that to come.

Hope you enjoyed the video.
