In this sequence, I go through a hip activating bridge sequence and then transitioning to a hip mobility and stretching portion.

This is unique to BJJ as these are movements that are both useful and seen frequently in jiu-jitsu but they are also positions that you may find yourself in during training.
Here is the list of techniques:

1. Double-Leg Bridge

2. Single-Leg Bridge

3. Single-Leg Bridge With Knee To Chest

4. Single-Leg Bridge With Opposite Hamstring Stretch

Black-Belt/Adult/Female/Light-Feather – Final

It’s important when you train to have a conceptual framework in which to place the techniques you learn. Otherwise you just get overloaded with moves and have no ability to use them correctly or fully. Here, I discuss something I teach all my students.

It’s a simple way to think about how they should approach using guards and how they should prioritize which guard they use for various situations.

A great question was asked to me the other day. This is my response.

I think it is great to learn from different people. Each person my teach you something that will fit into your game. Like I said in the video “one day I will teach a technique and it will work for ten people. The other people in class won’t like it” but someone else my show their variation of the move and those people lean more towards that technique. Which is fine. You use what works into your game. That’s the beauty of jiujitsu.

Not everything I learned came from one instructor. I did many privates/seminars/ even tournaments to learn different techniques. You can learn from any body style and make their technique work for your game. Most of the time my stuff came from experimenting with techniques shown in class and how I could use them to work for me.

I got asked about how to become more creative with BJJ. This question comes from our friend who is doing really well.

Things are moving along in a good way. His techniques are working just fine. But he wants to adapt things to create his own style like he sees others doing.

In this video I’ll talk about a rather uncreative way that creativity comes about in your Brazilian Jiu-jitsu game.

And it starts with the idea that techniques spread like infectious diseases.
For example.

I got thrown this Saturday. And not just with any throw. . .It was a beautiful throw.

It came at the hands of my buddy Dru ( a brown belt) who was in town this weekend.

He’s from south Florida and trained with Cyborg. And the throw he hit me with he learned that from Cyborg. Cyborg taught him this throw both by instruction and hitting him with it during rolling.

Now when he threw me in front of all of my students, did I get mad? Nah I actually laughed told him it was a “pretty” throw and kept rolling.

And then after we got done rolling I had him show me the technique so that I can drill it!

This is how techniques spread. From one person to the next like an infection or disease.

Each infected person making the technique their own.

Now with any disease after it gets cured or treated. It begins to adapt, right?

The same happens in Brazilian Jiujitsu. As you add new techniques to the mix. Your training partners will adapt to stop your moves and submissions. And then you’ll be forced to adapt them to new situations.

This adapting is a point where creativity often comes back in. Not by sheer creativity but from necessity.

I hope you enjoyed the ramble!
-Chewy

Black-Belt/Adult/Male/Heavy – Final

This Choke is super tight! I use to hate cross chokes. I could never hit them. In fact I gave them up for years because I thought they were useless.

Than I started using this variation. I couldn’t believe it I was hitting the choke. Not on scrubs but some high level guys. It’s all about securing that grip super tight and having your elbows right.

Now another one that I will do on top of this choke is sometimes I come up for a sweep with the cross grip. I will hang on to that grip and go right to my choke.

Both of those options have been working really well for me.

Did you know that you could submit someone only using one of your legs? With a little help getting there of course.

Do you struggle finishing Kimura’s against Big Strong People? This is the BJJ technique question for today.

In the question our friend says when he is training Brazilian Jiu-jitsu he is able to secure the Kimura grip (double wrist lock) against his training partners. But once he does, he is unable to finish it.

The strong person just powers out of the shoulder lock.

In this video I show some details about the Kimura that I think would be helpful from top or bottom position. It’s a mistake a lot of my newer grapplers make when performing many armlocks and submissions in BJJ.

Before we continue, understand that if you’re like 100lbs and your partner is 300lbs. The Kimura is probably not going to be your “go-to” submission. It’s just not the best idea for someone that much bigger than you.

But you can still Kimura a larger person. I’ve been able to finish it against some very large guys. Sometimes 60-100lbs heavier than me.

One reason for my ability to finish the lock is the detail of using the whole body I show in this video.

I hope the video is helpful with your ability to finish the Kimura submission in Brazilian Jiujitsu. Whether you’re rolling or in a BJJ competition or tournament.

-Chewy
