In today’s video I have 2 questions that touch on the same topic. 1 comes from an 8 year BJJ Black Belt and the other is from a brand spankin’ new White Belt.

The main question is about how to relax more during rolling in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training. The Black Belt is asking it more from a coaching perspective and the White Belt is asking from the perspective of a new student.

So in the video I explain about how I used to be a spazzy White Belt, how I deal with them as coaches to help them relax and then my tips for the people asking questions.

If you’re in a similar situation then I hope the video helps you!

Today’s video comes from Elijah who wants information about books on mental toughness. He said he knows I’m a reader and wants book recommendations on books to develop mental toughness for BJJ and life.

In this video I share some ideas on how I develop mental toughness for Brazilian Jiu-jitsu and life. I also share why you don’t build mental toughness from reading. Books can be a great tool to get new ideas from. But they’re like techniques. You have to put the ideas into practice. They can’t sit on the shelf. But with that I share 3 books I think are worth reading in relationship to mental toughness.

If mental toughness and being gritty is something you’re trying to do. I hope the video is useful to you.

“I want to get better in BJJ.” I get a messages like this from new White Belts all the time. But when I ask people what they mean by “better” they typically don’t have a rock solid answer. So in this video I wanted to give someone who’s newer to Brazilian Jiu-jitsu some ideas to focus on in order to get better.

The most important part is know what you’re focusing on. Most of the time when people say better they don’t define what they actually mean. So that’s probably the most important part. If you’re going to strive to get better you need to know what you mean.

But if you’re a newer White Belt I hope the video is useful.

Today’s BJJ technique video comes from a question about how to escape side control from a heavier opponent who’s squeezing tight. Before I get into the video I just gotta say. Learning to escape a heavier opponent starts by training with heavier people and learning not to freak out. Sounds too simple of course. But it’s super difficult.

With that said, this escape from a traditional head and arm side control seen in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu will work whether the person is heavier or smaller.

The key to the escape is to get the person off balance. And honestly that is what the main focus of this video is about. How to off balance the top person so we can escape their side control.

Hope the video is useful.
