If you’re forced to roll with higher belts in BJJ, will it hinder your progress? This is the question today from a White Belt who’s recently been placed into a higher level Brazilian Jiu-jitsu class.

Here’s what happened. His BJJ coach divided the training groups up due to covid concerns. He had the White Belts go to 1 class time. And then the colored belts (Blue, Purple, Brown, Black) to another. Well our friend was the lone White Belt who got plugged into the higher belt class.

So his question is about whether or not this situation will hinder his Jiu-jitsu training.

In this video I share some perspectives from my own experience in the hopes that they’ll be useful to anyone in a similar situation.

I hope the video is useful to you!
Thanks for watching.

In today’s Q&A video I got a question from a new Blue Belt who asked me what I would do differently when I was a BJJ Blue Belt. He asks because he wants to make the most of his time in Jiu-Jitsu and wanted to get some ideas from me.

So in this video I identify what I believe was my biggest mistake I made after I was promoted from White Belt to Blue. I’ll explain why I think this was my biggest mistake and my basic philosophy of the Blue Belt.

Now, you could use the ideas in the video regardless of belt rank. But I think it’s important for anyone who’s been promoted in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu and has a higher level of skill than some of their peers.

Hopefully if you’re in a similar situation the video will be useful to you.

Thanks for watching the video.

Are HIIT workouts good for building cardio for BJJ? That’s the basic question from out friend from Germany (who I will call Karl for the video). Karl is a Blue Belt in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu and wanting to build his cardio and is wanting to know if HIIT workouts are useful for doing this.

In this video I give my answer to this question based on my experience. But I will add a caveat to everything I say in the video. What I tell you in the video is my experience and opinion. Use it and put it together with your own experience. Because we are all different.

Getting back to the video. I share why I’m not the biggest fan of HIIT workouts during my normal flow of training and the only time I’ll actually add them in.

Oh and at the end I take you for a quick tour of the weight training area in my gym.

Hope the video is useful for you and your rolling.

Thanks for watching.
