The three ingredients of every good leglock are control of the hip, control of the knee, and control of the end of the lever. Here’s what that looks like in practice. From https://www.grapplearts.com/cutting-edge-leglocks/

Often times people feel extremely overwhelmed when they train BJJ.

This is usually a result of the abundance of techniques in the martial art.

With that said, when you start training Brazilian Jiu-jitsu it’s sometimes difficult to understand exactly what you should be focused on. I mean, there’s such a wide variety of skills in the art.

In this video I give Daniella, a 1-stripe white belt who’s feeling overwhelmed with BJJ techniques, a few strategies I use to prevent those overwhelming feelings.

Thanks for watching!

Recently I was asked which TWO Submission were my favorite for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu…

You might be surprised at how simple my answers are.

These two subs are ones I have successfully used in Adult Black Belt Level Competition and for years training Brazilian Jiu-jitsu.

Sometimes, at least for me, SIMPLE is BETTER…

Hope these help…

What 2 Submissions do you prefer? and WHY?

Today’s question comes from a Blue Belt who quit BJJ training some months back. His reasons for quitting, as you’ll hear in the video, are mindset issues.

So, as I get into the video, I share some ideas from my own Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training as I went through a similar issue in the past. I never quit, but I did experience some frustration and overcame it.

If you struggle with anything similar, then I hope this video helps you out.
Thanks for watching.

Today’s video is a question from a guys who is technically a “White Belt” but has around 15 years of MMA and grappling experience.

His issue is he feels a certain level of discomfort rolling with guys who are the same rank as him but he has 15x more experience then. Also, when he rolls with many of the higher belts he feels uneasy beating them even though he’s the new guy in the gym.

So, in the video I share a story of situation that happened in my gym that was very similar. It was with a guy who is now a Brown Belt but who started training with us as a White Belt after he stopped fighting professional MMA.

Thanks for watching.

Today’s video is a quick one showing a few of the stretches I like using when my hands and forearms feel like rocks. This used to be really bad when I first started BJJ. It’s not as bad anymore, but after a hard competition match or during days where we focus on a lot of situational rolling from Back Mount I’ll get the locked-up hands a bit.

So, in today’s video I share 4 stretches with you that you could use in between matches or after a tough training session.

This list is not exhaustive obviously. But these 4 have been super helpful to me.

So again, I hope they help and thanks for watching.
