Today we’ve got a question from Edgar, who asked me “Which option is better for real self-defense cases, Gi or No Gi BJJ?”
While reading the comments, many people swayed hard to one side or the other.
The Gi people said their version of BJJ was the best, while the No Gi Jiu-Jitsu players said their side was more practical.
One team says you’ll never fight naked people, and the other says you can’t rely on the grips of the Gi in real life.
There’s a ton of dogma around it and I’ll illustrate to you guys what I think about this with a particular hypothetical situation.
Hopefully, you found this video helpful.
Thanks for watching.

What’s up, guys!
Today’s question comes from a viewer who’s looking to get back into Jiu-Jitsu competitions after a 5-year break due to life and parenthood. He’s finally starting to get the itch again, but he’s feeling unsure about whether he still has the aggression and competitiveness that most Jiu-Jitsu competitors have.
He’s worried about going to a competition and getting smashed, and he’s asking if I have any tips to help him get back into the groove.
In this video, I’ll share my own experience with competing, taking a 2-year break for various reasons, and how I eventually got back into the world of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu competitions.
I’ll also talk about the mental shift I had over time—the way my mindset changed as I got older. Competition became a lot less important to me, and the fuel I ran on evolved.
I hope you find this video helpful. Let’s get into it!
Thanks for watching.

Today, we have a question from Andy, who loves no gi BJJ and is wondering if training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in the Gi is necessary.
He says:
“I’ve been training for 6 months. I really like BJJ, I currently train both Gi and No-Gi. Doing each 3 times a week. But, as I keep training, I really like No-Gi. But the Gi Days are starting to feel like a chore. Is there a good reason to keep doing the Gi? Do I have to?”
According to him, his goals are MMA, Fighting, etc.
If he were to ask me this question 10 years ago, I would’ve given you a certain response. Things like “Yes, the gi makes your BJJ more technical” and so on.
But a lot has changed since then, and I’ll dive deep into that while trying to answer your question the best I can.
Thanks for watching. If one of you guys is having trouble with this, too, I hope you found this video helpful.
