You Have to Rethink What GOOD Training is as a Higher Belt in BJJ

Good Training Doesn’t Just Mean Getting Smashed

This Purple Belt Associates Good Training with Being smase

In today’s video I answer a question from a guys who is a purple belt and 1 of the higher belts in his Brazilian Jiu-jitsu gym.

His question concerns improvement and hard training. Since he’s 1 of the higher belts during the rolling, he doesn’t get smashed like he used to. But when he looks back on his training, he was getting very good, very fast, when he was a newer guy and was getting smashed.

So his question is whether to move to a gym or change his training habits.

So in this video I talk about some ideas that could be useful for anyone in BJJ, but especially for Brazilian Jiu-jitsu practitioners with a fair amount of experience under their belt.

Hope the video helps you.

Today’s Q&A comes from Logan who wants to know how to roll hard with Brazilian Jiu-jitsu Black Belts without being disrespectful. He says that when he rolls he gets a catch on a submission or sweep but then feels hamstrung to finish it because he doesn’t want to go too hard to finish it.

This is a good question! I used to deal with this same thing years ago where I wanted to go hard with my BJJ coaches but didn’t want to disrespect them.

And as a BJJ Black Belt who’s got a modicum of celebrity in the Jiu-jitsu space I can tell you that there are cases where we can train super hard and it’s a great rolling session. On the flip side, I’ve trained with people where I feel irritated and don’t want to roll with a person again.

I’ll explain the difference between the 2 in the video and I hope this helps you if you’re in a similar situation.

Thanks for watching.
