Can you get better at BJJ training only 2 days a week, or are you wasting your time?

This is a Brazilian Jiu-jitsu question I received from Instagram.

The person asking this question is training No Gi BJJ and has a ton of other interests. In general he’s just a fitness fanatic.

Because of all of these other things on his plate. He’s wondering if he’s wasting his time training 2 times a week of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu.

In this video I talk about how people mimic the extremes of BJJ like high level competitors. And it’s not in alignment for their goals.

BJJ competitions and grappling competitors are fascinating. And their performances inspire us.

And in turn, we enjoy emulating this style of training. Regardless of whether or not we intend to follow that same path.

And in the the case of the person who asked the question. He has a ton of other goals and interests. So it only makes sense that he would not be as invested into BJJ.

And I try to explain why training twice a week is not a waste of time and how it can even be beneficial for your training because it can create better focus.

If you’re in this situation with you’re training. I hope this video is helpful! Thanks for watching.

And don’t let competitions and the excitement of it shame you or make you feel guilty.

In this video I show an Open Guard Pass that I call the Pony Pass. This is an important transition that presents itself a lot throughout various positions but I feel this is one of the easiest ways to practice the movement.

After the demonstration of the technique I included some instruction on what a good training partner will do to produce the desired space for practice. Obviously, while rolling, this will be a much smaller window but the concept applies the same.

This is part of a passing sequence that I showed from DLR and while this does not appear to be that viable, when paired with the second pass, it happens a lot more than you would think.

As you get better at this movement you will not have to place your hands on the floor (and you really should avoid doing that after you master the weight transfer and pathway with your hips).

Wrestlers who get into BJJ can often be the worst nightmare of a Guard focused player if that bottom player doesn’t know how to work their game against the wrestler.

In this video I answer a BJJ related question that comes from a viewer on Instgram.

His question is about dealing with Wrestlers in a Brazilian Jiu-jitsu competition that is coming up.

In this video I demonstrate my strategy to beating a Wrestler with Half Guard in Brazilian Jiujitsu.

As I show in the video, playing Half Guard can allow you the ability to get under the hips of the Wrestling based grappler to move them and throw them off their base.

That base of theirs is often the toughest part of their game and what keeps them on top of you like glue!

So if you’re having a similar issue to Gui, then I hope this video is helpful to you and helps you should you find yourself up against a Wrestler in a BJJ tournament.

Thanks!

A common question that gets asked by newcomers to BJJ is whether or not you have to compete to be good at Brazilian Jiu-jitsu.

This was the exact question I received from one of the viewers. He’s curious whether or not he has to compete to become good at Brazilian Jiujitsu.

In the video I share my thoughts on whether or not BJJ competitions are a must for progression in the Martial Art / Sport.

I also touch on the ideas of how I think tournaments and competitions can be beneficial to someone’s progression if not entirely a necessity.

I know that wrongly when I was a White Belt in BJJ. I thought that you had to do BJJ competitions.

As I’ve gotten older with years of experience under my belt I’ve realized the error of this thinking.

If you’re someone who is interested in BJJ competitions or curious about their necessity , I hope this video is helpful to you!

Thanks for watching!

One of the BJJ rolling style games we have in our gym is calling your submission.

Basically when rolling with your partner, you tell them the submission you plan to use in advance.

The point of this rolling drill is to help develop more creativity for our Brazilian Jiu-jitsu game.

For instance if someone knows you’re going for a particular submission or technique. They guard against it.

This type of Brazilian jiujitsu training forces you to work more creatively to find the submission. Because they’re defense for that submission will be much higher.

Making you look for different ways to get it!

In this video my student Justin and I rolled. He was looking for leg locks and I was looking for an armbar.

You’ll see that we hit all sorts of weird angles and positions as we chase a technique that the other knows they are going for.

I really enjoy incorporating this type of training into my Brazilian Jiujitsu as it helps me focus on a limited set of options which can help keep away from being overwhelmed with options.

I hope you guys enjoy the video!
