What White Belt Wrestlers in BJJ Should Focus On (What I Did)

In this video I share a story for our friend who is a newer White Belt in BJJ who comes from Wrestling background.

This is a subject that is near and dear to my heart.

Here’s the situation!

Our friend Bashy says that he has been focusing on pulling Full Guard and working from that position in his gym to build up his weakness.

He says his takedown ability from Wrestling is solid. So to develop his Brazilian Jiu-jitsu he has been focusing on the position that isn’t quite as natural to him.

He asked what I would tell him to do. But instead I took this video as a chance to tell him what I did.

So in the video I share my early stages in Brazilian Jiujitsu and how my Wrestling got me in trouble.

But then I talk about how I spent a while from the Guard position focusing on my sweeps and submissions and how it impacted me positively.

If you’re in a similar situation. I hope the video is helpful!
