The Best Jiu-Jitsu Search Engine in the World
ADULT / BLACK-BELT / MALE / MEDIUM-HEAVY – FINAL
In BJJ there is often this idea that all you have to do to improve is this 1 thing. Many Black Belt coaches will say it’s the #1 thing you have to do to improve in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. Heck, I’ve probably said it before. Nowadays though, I think it’s wrong, and if not wrong at least incomplete.
I explain why this common rule for Jiu-jitsu progress is ok but not what I would consider the #1 rule if you want to be good. And I think most of us in BJJ don’t get into it to be just “ok”. We want to be the best possible grapplers we can be. We may not be the next 24 year old Black Belt world champ, but we want to reach OUR potential.
And if you want to reach your potential it’ll require a lot of things. I talk about 1 of these important factors in this video.
Hope the video helps you with your BJJ training.
Chat with you next time.

Here’s a super simple defense to the a Knee Cut Guard Pass. Sometimes called a Cut Through. Either way, the defense is very simple and has been one of my most effective in training and competition.
Hope the little tweak helps you out!

Today’s video is from a BJJ White Belt who’s about 2 years into Brazilian Jiu-jitsu and says that he is always getting injured. His question is whether or not BJJ is even right for him. Possibly he’s too fragile or something.
Now I cannot answer that question, because who knows? I’ve seen some seemingly frail people become expert grapplers while some stout dudes ended up quitting early on.
Instead, I went on to ask him more about his rolling and he said he tries to take things slow and easy during rolling. Now this might seem like a smart idea, and against higher BJJ belts it can be.
But as I’ll explain in the video. Rolling like this against lower belts can be downright dangerous.
Hopefully the video is useful to you with your training and hopefully helps you avoid some injuries.

Here is the epic Finals Day highlight from the 2022 World Championship. This highlight features the action of the black belt divisions, team awards and Hall of Fame inductions. This years World Championship was truly memorable and here are all of the major highlights from the event.
In today’s video I answer a question from Raymond who is beconing a new MMA coach at his gym. He’s been a student there and is now becoming a coach on some level. His question to me today is about how to get better at speaking and his ability to coach since he’s a bit nervous.
So in the video I discuss some ideas that could help someone become a better teacher/coach whether they’re new or not. These are the same tips that helped me as someone who felt unsure of themself early on as a coach and who used to have a stutter in my late teens. These tips are for Ray who’s going to be an MMA coach. But you could use these tips for teaching in general.
If you’re a new coach in any capacity then I hope the tips help you.

This is a basic overview for anyone whos trying to drop to a lower weight class or just lose weight and wants to do so without killing themselves in the process.
I say this, because a lot of people in BJJ literally destroy themselves trying to cut weight for Brazilian Jiu-jitsu competitions. And in most cases it isn’t necessary and there is a better way to do things.
So in the video I share some of the simplest weight cutting tips that you can implement to lose weight slowly and intelligently. To lose weight without losing tons of muscle and without destroying your training and performance.
Hope the video is useful!
Oh and if you want to see my diet click the link below. This is pretty much my diet all the time. I simply eat varying amounts of food depending on my goals at the time.
Also, if you want to hire someone to write out your diet for you and be a remote coach to keep you accountable. I can’t recommend my buddy Eli enough. He’s been one of my coaches for the last 2 years and hiring him was one of the best decisions for my performance, health and physical appearance.

Today’s video is a question from a viewer who’s involved in MMA and finds that he is a slow starter. Meaning he allows other people to get the better of him but then turns it on after. This is an issue many people have faced, including yours bearded.
So in today’s Q&A video I share some ideas of how I went from being a slow started in BJJ competitions and MMA and into an aggressive fighter/grappler from the moment a match started.
Hope the video gives you some useful ideas for your own training.
Oh, and sorry for the weird brightness in the video. Camera was on the fritz that day.

Leandro Lo Post World Title Interview
Mica Galvão gives his thoughts after winning his first World title in the Lightweight division at black belt fresh off the podium.
Want to increase the finish rate with armlocks from side control? Then this video is for you. In this video I’m going to show you my Arm Scoop position from side control along with a ton of important details for finish straight arm locks, kimuras and wrist locks. This is one of my highest percentage attacks in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. I’ve done some form of these submissions since I was a White Belt in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu and have used them all the way to Black belt.
But as I’ll share, the most important part is the setup. If you use the arm scoop position like I show in the video, you’ll find that it’s so much easier to catch and finish your BJJ submissions from side control.
Enjoy the video and I hope it helps.
