Today’s Q&A video is from a brand-new White Belt who gasses out too fast during BJJ training and wants to improve his cardio. Now his request is for options other than just the obvious, roll more solution.

So in this video I share 2 ideas that will help improve your cardio or “gas tank” for Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. I’ve kept the tips as simple as possible. Doesn’t mean they’re easy, but if you act on the 2 suggestions I give in the video I guarantee you’ll be able to roll longer and have more energy for BJJ training.

I say this from my experience and also the experience of many of my students.

If you’re struggling to roll in your gym and want to give your BJJ stamina a boost then I hope the video helps.

In today’s video demonstrating the basic techniques I use successfully as a Black Belt. I’m showing you a rear naked choke. I know I know. . . fancy stuff you’ve never seen before.
*please read that with the sarcastic tone that was implied.

Now I know you know the rear naked choke or strangle if you prefer. But I still people struggling to finish their chokes for 1 reason or another. So hopefully I can help you fix this in the next 10 minutes with this video if you experience this issue.

In the video I’ll demonstrate some useful details that you could add into your Brazilian Jiu-jitsu that could help make your rear naked choke finishing game much better. I’ve also included a few clips of me putting these ideas into practice.

Hope it helps!

This mistake cost me big time in some of my old competitions where I’d shoot in for takedowns when we were close to out of bounds.

Have mat awareness and don’t waste your energy and give away your techniques for nothing.

Today’s video is a short one about a word that people call Jiu-jitsu that makes me cringe.

The other day on social media I posted about how I hate it when people call Jiu-jitsu “jits” or “jitz” and I got several questions as to why that is. Well in the video I’ll explain why.

And I’m curious as to whether or not you dislike the word like I do or if you use it yourself. This isn’t a wrong or right thing. Just is. But I’m curious. So, watch the video and share your thoughts in the comments.

In today’s BJJ Q&A video I answer a question about a Blue Belt who is smashing people in side control.

The question comes from a guy who is a higher belt in his Brazilian Jiu-jitsu gym and has recently seen a Blue Belt smashing people in side control. And once he gets there he doesn’t move, he just sits and squeezes. And the higher belt is curious as to whether or not he should say something because a lot of people don’t want to roll with the Blue Belt because it’s boring to them.

In the video I give my thoughts on the situation and why I would talk to the other BJJ students (not the Blue Belt) first. Because in the end, BJJ is about being challenged. And you can’t just give up because things get tough.

Thanks for watching the video!

Just wanted to let you guys know I’ll be doing a new series on the channel showing some of my most basic techniques that I actually use in competition and high level rolling successfully.

The upcoming videos will be longer as I’m going to go deep into the details that make them work. But I think the techniques could be really useful as most of them are options you’ve probably been doing since you were a white belt.

Anyways, be on the lookout for the new series and I’ll see you in the upcoming videos.

In today’s video I answer a question from a young BJJ Blue Belt who’s been winning a bunch of competitions and is obsessed with the goal of getting his BJJ White Belt in 1 year. Currently he’s been training about 10 months.

Now he wants to know ideas t impress his coach which I’m not going to do since I guarantee his coach is probably impressed by his performance in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. Instead I try to share some ideas on finding meaning in between the goals he’s chasing.

I do this because I had the same tireless drive towards goals when I was younger and trying to impress my coaches and teammates. And while it can produce good results it can also produce a ton of frustration because you never stop to realize what you’ve accomplished because you’re always after the next goal.

I explain the idea in more depth in the video. Hopefully the video is useful to you.

Today’s video will show you some simple techniques to make your armbars safer and more effective as a BJJ White Belt.

The video comes from a question I got from a White Belt who’s afraid of falling off too fast with armbars from top position becuase he doesn’t want to injure his training partners or lose the submission.

So in this video I’ll show you how to use the arm you’re not attacking (when using an armbar from top) to anchor yourself to their body and slow the armbar down. This will also help weaken many of the common grips used to defend armbars.

If you’re struggling with armbars then I hope the video helps!
