Today’s question comes from Jen who is struggling to retain information in BJJ and she would like to drill her Brazilian Jiu-jitsu techniques more to retain the information better. Only problem is that her only training partners currently are her boyfriend (who only likes to roll) and her coach.

So she sent me a question about how to retain information better. So in today’s Chewy ramble video I’ll explain an idea of active drilling and how to drill BJJ techniques even if your partner only wants to roll.

I share some experiences of my own and also a story about Bernardo Faria that I heard recently on a podcast.

I hope the video is helpful! I’ll talk to you next time.

This is a video of 1 of my Blue Belts and I drilling some BJJ techniques and movements.

In the video you’ll see us drill Kimuras, Mono Platas, Armbars and Back Takes.

If you watch the video, hopefully you’ll see a few Brazilian Jiujitsu techniques that you can take away for your own BJJ training.

After we do the BJJ drilling we move on to some situational rolling. The rolling is to help both of us work on aspects of the game we’re working to improve.

I think this 2 part bit is important. Work the techniques, drill them. Then put them into live purposeful practice. I harp about this is my other videos and so I want you guys to see me doing it.

This is not the most intense practice. But it’s very helpful for my overall Brazilian Jiujitsu.

Hope you guys enjoy the video!

Recently I received a question on Youtube about an interview from the Joe Rogan podcast where Ben Askren commented about how BJJ gyms are doing it wrong.

Here is the snippet from the Joe Rogan Podcast with Ben Askren
BJJ Schools are Doing it Wrong: https://youtu.be/ijAMRqBZgo8

Here’s the full length interview: https://youtu.be/Ec4OKbrCl3I

During the interview he criticized Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training where very little focused was placed on deliberate training or situational rolling.

And instead Bjj classes often start with just a few slowly practiced techniques. Followed up with rolling from whatever position.

The 2nd question was about the necessity of BJJ Belts. Is our belt ranking system necessary?

In this video I answer both questions based on my experiences and touch on how I think a lot of gyms don’t practice as best as they could. Meaning, the implementation of various forms of rolling to get more experience from positions or with techniques that are being practiced.

I also go over my thoughts on Brazilian Jiujitsu belts and the motivation that comes from them.

I hope you enjoy the video!
