ADULT / BROWN-BELT / MALE / ROOSTER – SEMIFINAL

In today’s video I talk about getting ready for a BJJ competition. In particular getting ready for a Jiu-jitsu competition with a different ruleset. The question comes from Phillip who is getting ready for a competition with a rule set he’s not used to. He’s wondering should he roll under the same rules as the competition leading up to the tournament or should he just roll like normal and make adjustments on the day of the matches?

I’ll explain how I do it and how I prepare for a Brazilian Jiu-jitsu competition regardless of the rules.

And if you’re getting ready for a BJJ match, tournament or competition then I hope it’s useful.

ADULT / BLACK-BELT / MALE / SUPER-HEAVY – ELIMINATOR

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

In today’s Q&A video I share 4 reasons why I’ve learned more at Black Belt than any other belt rank in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. Some of the reasons will seem counterintuitive but hopefully it’ll make sense. And everyone of course has their own philosophy for BJJ, but these are the ideas that I think have made the biggest difference.

Oh and even if you’re not a Black Belt I think you can make use of the information in the video.

Thanks for watching.

In this BJJ technique video I share a simple idea on escaping side control when someone is super tight. I’m using the lapel to help (since it’s there) but you can use this same setup in no gi jiu-jitsu as well. Just make sure the bicep is across the face.

The big thing I really wanted to stress in this side control escape video is to be mindful of where you are pushing with your frames. Many beginners use their basic frames and push right into the power of the person on top. Meaning they push towards their legs and feet which means they get absolutely no where. But if we simply change the angle we’re pushing we can get a lot more mileage from our frames and bridges.

So if you’re getting stuck in side control when your doing Brazilian Jiu-jitsu then I hope this video is helpful!

ADULT / BLACK-BELT / MALE / HEAVY – FINAL

Today’s BJJ Q&A video is from Josh who’s a big guy who wants to move more like a “little” guy. I put that in air quotes because I know plenty of smaller BJJ practitioners who have great smash games. But getting back to his question he says that during his Brazilian Jiu-jitsu practices, his coach encourages him towards a more pressure and smash style game whereas he seems interested in a lot of open guards and other positions more commonly associated with smaller Brazilian Jiu jitsu players.

In this video I’ll explain why you want to have a big guy game and a little guy game (and how you can make that happen). I’ll also talk about why you should always keep in mind that your BJJ game is your own and you can create it however you’d like.

If you’re a big guy with a similar question I hope you enjoy the video.

I just finished reading this 400 page book on the origins of BJJ and wanted to share my thoughts with you. If you’re a serious student of the martial arts you owe it to yourself to get this work covering 3 countries and 32 interviewees! I wasn’t able to put it down and I don’t think you will be able to either!

In today’s video I share a quick story from a BJJ training session with a Crossfit athlete who was also a college wrestler, and has also did some Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. Because of his wrestling base he definitely gave me a unique look and shut down my Half Guard game. Every time I’d come up for a sweep I just couldn’t quite finish it. Instead I had to switch up to Butterfly Guard to get a sweep.

I share this with you because the problem solving mindset I have when I train with people like that is not the one I’ve always had. And if you’re a BJJ practitioner yourself you definitely need to maintain that mindset, especially against people with certain attributes that give you trouble.

Here’s his instagram page in case you want to check him out: https://www.instagram.com/blacksmifff/

I say this because all to often I hear BJJ players make excuses as to why something doesn’t work like, “Oh they’re just strong.” You don’t want to be one of these people.

I also give you an update on how my weight loss is going. Currently I’m down to about 200-202 in the morning and have lost around 10lbs and it’s steadily declining. More on that to come.

Hope you enjoyed the video.
