What’s up guys,

Today we have a question from a fan, who ask “is Gi or No-Gi Better for Old Guy Beginners?”

Now, in this video I rephrase the question a bit, to this:

Is Gi or No-Gi Easier for Older Beginners in Jiu-Jitsu?

The reason I do this is because “better” is a bit subjective, whereas the difficultly between the two, especially as one tends to get older, definitely changes for most normal people. This is due to the physicality, speed, and slipperiness of one vs. the other.

With that being said there are clear benefits of doing both. Doing No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu will help with your Gi BJJ, and vice versa.

In the video I’ll explain which of the 2 I think is easier, why, and how training both can be beneficial to your overall Jiu-Jitsu game, regardless of which one you prefer.

Of course, this is all just my opinion.

If you’re an older grappler who was wondering which style of BJJ you should do, then hopefully you found this video helpful for you.

Are older BJJ Black Belts really even Black Belts anymore? That’s the question I basically got asked today from several friends of mine who are BJJ Black Belts and who are also getting older.

This issue they’re running into is that as they’re getting older they’re getting beaten by many of the younger Purples Belts (and other belts) who are much younger than them and focused heavily in BJJ training.

So in the video I explain my thoughts on it and the struggle that many of us will go through if we were lucky enough to do Brazilian Jiu-jitsu when we were younger and then have the continued luck of doing it as we get older.

Hope the video helps any of you older grapplers out there.

Today’s BJJ technique video is a continuation of the passing idea I shared last week about using half guard to slow down younger, faster or more athletic opponents.

In today’s video I answer a question about the Reverse Half Guard position as a question came up on the original video. I show some details on how to use the Reverse Half Guard position in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, so you don’t get reverse or lose control of your opponent. But also, how to strategically place your weight on your opponent to apply maximum pressure.

This can be a great position whether you’re older and need to slow down the young whipper snappers in your class or if you just run into someone who has a really mobile guard.

If you’re trying to figure out ways to slow down training partners or opponents with guard passing then I hope this video is useful to you!

In today’s video I show a simple half guard top position I’ve been working on to slow things down with guard passing in BJJ, especially No Gi.

If you’ve watched any of my stuff in the last year or so you’ve probably heard me complain about being older. I’m not old by normal standards but by athletic standards I am. I also have some super tough young Purple, Brown and Black Belts that give me all I can handle.

So, to slow down the speed with the passing on top I’ve been focused on a specific position a lot. It’s very similar to a position I’ve used in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu for years and shown on the channel. But in the video, I show some specific adjustments I’ve been working in to stay tighter, add more pressure and slow my opponents down.

Today’s question comes from a Judo black belt who’s a BJJ purple belt and is 51 years old. He says on the feet he’s able to take people down effectively but on the ground, he struggles with younger people who are faster than him.

In today’s video I share an idea I shared with him through social media. It’s a simple idea that’s more about the methodology of wrestling and judo vs BJJ. In my eyes, this methodology gives a certain advantage to other grappling sports and so if you apply it to Brazilian Jiu-jitsu it can help add a lot of focus to your training and your BJJ game.

And, more importantly for the question, adding this methodology to your training will also help you seem faster without having to use more speed which, as you get older, may not be available.

So, whether you’re trying to hang with the younger faster people, or just want to learn how to slow the game down. Chew on the idea in this video.

Thanks for watching and I’ll chat with you next time.
