Helpful Stretches for Recovery After Brazilian Jiujitsu Training

by Leave a Comment  

Stretching post Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training is something that many people know would benefit them. But a lot of times they don’t know what to do.

I’ve received a lot of questions from people in BJJ asking me what I personally do for cool down stretches.

So in this video I take you through some of my favorite cool down stretches after a workout in Bjj.

I’m not a PT or a anything like that. But I’ve felt a massive difference since I started doing these.

The big focus in this video is to work on loosening up the hips, thoracic spine, pecs. These are my problem areas.

A lot of people in Brazilian Jiujitsu complain about lower back issues. But I’ve found the tightening of my hip flexors have been the big issue. And as I loosen them up more and more. I have less lower back stiffness.

So if you’re someone looking for some stretches to do to benefit your Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training. I hope this series of stretching and foam rolling techniques is helpful!

Try using these basic yoga / wall stretches for Brazilian Jiujitsu immediately after training or after a shower before you go to bed.

Let’s Get Ugly from Mount with this Powerful BJJ Shoulder Lock

by Leave a Comment  

Last week I started a little series with what I call the Ugly Armbar. The move is also commonly called the Monoplata or Marceloplata.

In the video last week. I explain why I call it the Ugly Armbar opposed to the other name variations.

Here’s the Ugly Armbar setup from last week: https://youtu.be/WPngPq3I0Us

This week’s setup that you can use in your Brazilian Jiu-jitsu game is a little simpler than the one from last week.

This setup for the submission starts from Mount and counters a common defensive hand position. And a common desperation movement that people will use to try and get out of the Mount position.

Again, what I really like about this particular BJJ submission is the fact that it’s not commonly used.

While it might look a little funky. When I’ve used it in Brazilian Jiujitsu I’ve found it to be incredibly powerful and have great control with my game when I’m rolling.

So if you’re looking for another submission to throw into the mix for your Mount game. Try the Ugly .

This White Belts 1st Day of BJJ Almost Never Happened

by Leave a Comment  

Recently I had a student who had his very 1st day of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. But this White Belt’s 1st class almost never happened.

I ended up catching him walking out of the gym doors about to head home. He had his BJJ gi on with his gym bag in hand.

I stopped him and told him to hell with fear, fuck fear.

He had his gi on, he has been wanting to start training and he knows me. So I said, let’s do it!

He came back in the gym and had his very 1st day of BJJ and it went great. And this new BJJ White Belt has trained several times since then. And I sincerely hope he continues to push through.

And I decided to share this story because I receive messages from many of you who are interested in training. But for 1 reason or another. You choose not to.

Many of the reasons you bring up are not legitimate reasons, but rather are reasons cooked up by irrational fears.

When I speak to someone who waited to start Brazilian Jiujitsu. Oftentimes the only regret they have is that they waited as long as they did. It was never regret out of starting.

So if you haven’t started yet but you want to, I hope you find this video useful.

Sneaky Shoulder Lock Setup from Side Control ( It’s “Ugly” )

by Leave a Comment  

One of my favorite submissions is a shoulder submissions commonly called the Monoplata or Marceloplata.

But I have a different name for it. I call it the Ugly armbar.

I call it this because it sort of looks like the 1st Armbar I did as a White Belt. That 1st armbar I did back in 2003 was really ugly!

And that’s where the name comes from. I call in the Ugly Armbar.

Fun story, I originally figured this move out on my own. I didn’t see it in an instructional or video. Then later on when I was browsing through some Brazilian Jiu-jitsu techniques. I came across Marcelo Garcia showing the technique.

So much for inventing a new move! 😛

In this BJJ technique video. I show one of my favorite sneaky setups for this shoulder lock submission, which starts from Side Control goes to mount and finishes.

In this setup I sort of sit up back which gives the illusion to the opponent that I’m off balance. I’ve found that many people take the bait and roll towards me.

As they do this I step over and catch the arm and setup the submission.

I’lll show another setup for this Brazilian Jiu-jitsu technique later on next week.

So whether you call it the Monoplata, Marceloplata or the Ugly Armbar like me. I hope you like the setup!

How I Used Training to Deal with Life Problems (Don’t Do This)

by Leave a Comment  

Brazilian Jiu-jitsu is often like a form of meditation for many of us. After a hard training session we often feel a stillness in our mind.

BJJ does this like very few things can.

I bring this up because our friend Josh used BJJ to deal with a lot of the issues that exist outside the gym. But right now, he’s injured and is not able to train Brazilian Jiujitsu.

And the problem with this is, he’s dealing with his father who is dying of cancer and his girlfriend just left him as well.

He wants to get back into the gym as soon as possible and asked about the type of training he should be engaged in.

In this video, I talk 1st about how I was in a very similar situation as Josh, and how I dealt with it (which wasn’t a good way).

Instead of dealing with with my mother’s passing I chose to numb myself with excessive amounts of training. To the point where I would be in the gym at 3am lifting just to exhaust myself so I couldn’t think.

At the end after me trying to get Josh to think about easing his BJJ and Lifting training schedule I give a few tips on how train without aggravating the injury.

I hope the video helps!
