In today’s video I answer a question about a BJJ White Belt who’s worried about being a 1 trick pony. Basically he’s been using a particular set of attacks from a position recently and it’s been working for him. But he’s worried about relying too much on this 1 area of his game.

In the video I’ll explain why it’s not a bad idea to be a 1 trick pony in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. . . at least at 1st.

This comes from years of experience and watching students develop their skills on the mats. And 1 common characteristic is that many of the good ones develop a particular area of their game over the rest 1st, and then work on the other ones.

Hopefully the video is useful to you.

In today’s BJJ technique video I share 5 different collar chokes you can use in BJJ using the same grip on the lapel. I’m showing this series so that if you ever get to back mount and you have trouble finishing a collar choke you’ll have some other options to throw into the mix.

Now of course, this is not all of the chokes you could use, but it’s a handful to mix into your training and rolling.

I also give some useful tips on how to have a stronger grip for collar chokes in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, so pay attention to that detail on folding the lapel over.

Enjoy the video and happy hunting for your techniques on the mats.

ADULT / BLACK-BELT / MALE / OPEN-CLASS – SEMIFINAL

The other day I was talking with one of my Blue Belts and White belts after training and we were talking about competitions. We got into the subject of weight, size and the look of people. The White Belt shared a bit of worry and intimidation about the size of potential people at his weight class.

And as I’ll share in the video looks can be deceiving in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu competitions and in general. In some cases I’ve gotten worked up over someone’s overall appearance only to beat them handedly then other times I’ve taken someone too lightly because they look physically weak. . . and then they rip my head off.

I shared this story because it’s something many of us do and I was curious if you do it as well and so I’d be curious to hear your experiences in the comments.

Thanks for watching and look forward to seeing your feedback.

ADULT / PURPLE-BELT / MALE / SUPER-HEAVY – FINAL

In today’s video I answer a question from a BJJ practitioner who said they’re telegraphing their techniques. If you’re unfamiliar with this term it basically means his partners and opponents see the techniques coming a mile away.

So in his message he’s curious about how to address this issue so that he can get back to successfully using his techniques in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu.

In the video I’ll share 3 things to consider when you run into a situation where your bread and butter techniques aren’t working anymore.

The 3 things that I bring up in the video to consider are. . .
1. Speed of execution

2. Confidence

3. Grips

I also share ways to build these up. And while I’m sure I missed some things that could be important, these 3 areas are a good starting point if you’re trying to increase the effectiveness with your techniques.

ADULT / BROWN-BELT / MALE / OPEN-CLASS – FINAL

ADULT / PURPLE-BELT / MALE / OPEN-CLASS – FINAL

Today’s video is based off a situation that happened with one of my brand new White Belts recently and my corrections I gave to him And it’s something I’ve done before. It’s also something I’ve seen a lot of newcomers to BJJ do as well.

The basic idea is that when you’re drilling a technique in BJJ for the first little bit. You want to be as fluid as possible to get the movement set. You don’t want to tense up and muscle everything. This is super important for newer Brazilian Jiiu-jitsu White Belts who try to go super fast or muscle things.

Not to say you’ll never need to muscle anything. But the idea is that if we train our Jiu-jitsu techniques to be as perfect as possible during the learning phase of the technique. Later when we are rolling and the natural stress of rolling creates a little sloppiness the technique will be good enough to hold up.

Hope the tip in the video helps!

ADULT / BLACK-BELT / MALE / MIDDLE – FINAL

Today’s video comes from Alex who’s curious why we have to roll again with the same person after we submit them during a roll. He says that in a competition we wouldn’t roll with the person again, it would be 1 and done. But in the gym he beats someone and then is too tired to execute the same attacks again in a 2nd round.

In the video I explain why we roll again. I mean the main reason is it’s training and not competition.

But even from a standpoint of being focused on BJJ competitions. It’s super important to roll in situations where you’re fatigued and unable to easily use your best Jiu-jitsu techniques. Because as any competitor will agree. At some point you’re going to find yourself in the middle of the mat exhausted and still have time on the clock and an opponent pressing forward. And while this is happening you’ll experience a sort of mental battle where 1 side of you tells you to push forward while the other says back off.

To conquer this you’ve got to become comfortable with the uncomfortable.

Hopefully the video was useful to you in some way.

Thanks for watching!

Today’s video is a quick video about how BJJ Black Belts get their stripes and promotions.

So in the video I share the basics of how I’ve been promoted and how the common stripe/belt promotion practice takes place for Brazilian Jiu-jitsu Black Belts. Now, I’m sure some systems could be different than the one I outline here. But this is the basic time requirements I’m familiar with and have been exposed to in my training.

Here’s a blog post with the chart that I was going off of: https://www.chewjitsu.net/2021/05/how-do-bjj-black-belts-get-their-stripes-promotions/

In the video I also share how old I’ll be when I can get the Red/Black and the final Red Belt of Jiu-jitsu. Since I was promoted to Black Belt when I was 26, I’ll be eligible for the final rank of BJJ when I am 89 years old.

. . . Let’s see if I even make that.

Anyways, hope the video was useful to you or at the very least maybe slightly entertaining based on how old I’ll be to get a Red Belt.
