Today’s video question comes from a Brown Belt who’s hitting a sticky point in his game. To the point where he’s getting beaten by all the lower belts and he feels like he’s doing worse than ever.

We’ve all been there at some point.

One of the times in my BJJ when I felt like this was when I was training at a super tough gym as a Brown Belt. I was visiting and wanted to get some tough training. I got exactly what I wanted, but it was tough! I remember even the blue belts were killing me by the end of it.

So in the video I share some details about what happened and I also share some ideas on how I handle these things.

Also, if you want to get the ebook mentioned in the video, just use the link below.

Thanks for watching.

This leglock set up is amazing. I’ve been playing with it for a few months now and I’ve been getting all kinds of taps.

Not many people have seen this setup and it is insanity deceiving and tricky. Once you figure this thing out you will have everyone scared to enter your guard.

I plan on doing a more in depth look at this technique on my website Chadthebeasthardy.com

This video just gives you a glimpse of how powerful it can be.

This is some video footage of when Nick Albin, aka Chewy from @chewjitsu and I had a chance to train together. We got to exchange ideas, explore technical considerations and roll around a little bit.
•
This flow roll allows us the pace to work through positions and submission opportunities without trying to maul each other and to move at a learning speed. Also, I want everyone to understand that I realize Chewy was being very nice to me and not gunning for so many opportunities he had to catch me. But this roll wasn’t about that for either of us, which immediately earned my respect for him on a whole new level. He is a fantastic dude that I truly can’t say enough good about.

In today’s video I take you guys along one of my boring ole Mondays haha.

Mondays are my usually my day of the week where I am doing meetings and a lot of boring stuff. They’re a pretty busy day but there is some BJJ training squeezed in there.

Hopefully you enjoyed the video and if you’d like to see more, please leave a comment below.

Are you a gym owner and want to ask Chewy or Joe a gym business related question? Please leave the questions below.

Recently I’ve been getting a ton of gym business related questions from BJJ coaches. But also from people running other niche gyms.

And I figured I’d do some videos on the topics from time to time.

But at the same time I wanted to introduce you to my business partner Joe.

In our business he covers many of my gaps and does things that I am terrible with and vice versa. We work together as a team on our gym to make it an awesome place to train.

We’re a nearly 9000 sq ft facility with Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, Boxing, Kickboxing, Weight lifting and more.

And the gym is packed everyday.

It wasn’t always this way and we’ve learned a lot of stuff over the years that we hope to share with you.

If you’re a gym owner or maybe want to be but have a question. Leave it in the comments or send it to me privately and Joe and I will answer it sometime in the future.

Fighting off the wall can be a game changing skill to have, not just for MMA but also for self-defense. I had the privilege of training with Nick “Chewy” Albin and collaborating on a few videos. This was one of my favorites!

How to roll longer as a BJJ White Belt is something that I get asked all the time. Both from my students and from my Chewjitsu group online.

I remember this being an issue for me. Even though I was a young wrestler, I still struggled with being able to roll for a long period of time. I found that I just gassed out so quickly and it was frustrating.

One of the reason I has such a problem when I tried to roll longer as a BJJ White Belt was that I didn’t breathe correctly. It was really bad at times.

So bad in fact, that one of the commands my coach had drilled into my head was simple, “BREATHE!”

Yeah, that’s right. Not only did I drill my techniques but I also had to drill my breathing. When he yelled breathe. I was take a very deliberate breath.

In addition to breathing. Another thing that someone roll longer as a BJJ White Belt is to be more conscious of when they are using energy. Often I’ll see white belts being very tense and using LOADS of energy, yet nothing is happening. Learning when you can conserve energy and when you need to expend it is one of the cornerstones to becoming more efficient.

In this video I share some details on both of these tips.

If you’re trying to roll longer as a BJJ white belt. Listen to the tips and give them a try!

Thanks!
-Chewy

In this video I show 7 Arm Drag and Collar Drag drills you can use. The arm drag and collar drag drills and variations can be used by themselves or together.

Here’s a list of the drills:
– Arm Drag
– Collar Drag
– Far Side Hook Switch
– Bow Pull Back Take
– Arm Drag To Double Leg
– Arm Drag Combination
– Re-Drag With Combination

The drills start off with your basic arm drag and collar drag. From there I show some different movement drills that you can incorporate with the techniques.

We did several of these drills during one of my Saturday morning classes recently and the guys loved them. There is obviously a technical benefit from them and the moves can be chained together to make fun connected sequences. But in addition to that, everyone was also a sweaty mess. Especially the arm drag to double leg.

Also, it’s worth noting that pretty much anytime I use the arm drag in the video it can be supplemented with the collar drag. For me personally, I always try and use the arm drag when I can since the collar is gi only, whereas the arm drag is universal. But it’s still a solid move to throw into the mix.

I hope these 7 BJJ drills help give you something to play around with during an open mat or during your own training!

If you have any questions or requests, feel free to shoot them over to me!

Thanks
Chewy

In this video I show a kimura from closed guard.

The kimura from closed guard is one of the essential techniques everyone has to have, especially white belts. In the video I give some small details that help my students and have helped me make the move more successful during training and competitions.
