In today’s Q&A BJJ video I answer the question as to whether or not you can take Brazilian Jiu-jitsu too seriously. I think this question comes up because people take a lot of things too seriously in our society at times. We’re all guilty of it. Plus, people experience burn out in a ton of things as well.
So it’s a good question I could chat about for hours. But in the video, I focus on 1 specific idea I think sums up when your training in BJJ crosses the line of “too serious.”
If you keep this element of play mixed into your BJJ I think it will help keep your growth going and also help you avoid burn out. I know it’s been this way for me over the last 20+ years in grappling.
Thanks for watching, hope it gives you a useful idea to chew on.

Grip fighting in BJJ can be overwhelming at 1st. There are lots of grips and knowing which ones to fight for can be difficult. In today’s video I have a question about this exact thing from a White Belt.
He says that when he’s training Jiu-jitsu in the gi he feels lost on which grips he should be fighting for. So in this video I share a simple idea that you can implement into your Brazilian Jiu-jitsu to make grip fighting simple.
This is my personal strategy on fighting for grips and when I lay it out, you’ll probably think of it as maybe too simple. But sit back and watch some of the best guys out there and notice that they don’t grip up casually. They grip up with intention for something very specific.
Practice this and you’ll experience a much higher success rate with your techniques, and you’ll never feel lost by which grips you should go for.

I get a lot of questions about low percentage techniques vs high percentage techniques. I believe this is because people want to avoid putting time into a technique that’s not going to give them good results later on. In this video though I share an idea / a rule for my BJJ about drawing the line in the sand about classifying techniques as high percentage or low percentage.
I share this idea with a story about my early training in Jiu-jitsu and a choke that, back then, was considered a relatively low percentage move. Nowadays, the technique is considered to be a very formidable submission to use in your BJJ arsenal.
Hope the idea gives you something useful to chew on for your BJJ training and technique selection.

This is a short clip from the belt promotions we did at my gym back in October 2022. In the clip you’ll see me promote one of my students to Black Belt. It’s been around 10 years since he started and he’s been one of the most consistent people on the mats even being 40 when he started BJJ and is now 50 years old. He’s had some injuries along the way and kept coming and gotten very good at Brazilian Jiu-jitsu.
In the video I also share why I try to give Black Belts that I wear to my students when I promote them.
Just a sneak peek from inside the gym.

P.S Sorry about the kids in the background. I know the noise can be a bit much. They were playing on the other side of the gym and I didn’t think the mic would pic it up as much as it did.

Today’s question comes from a Brown Belt who’s a big guy, with big arms, big chest and a big belly. His words, not mine. He’s having trouble rolling from back mount because of his stomach getting in the way. And so, he’s curious if I have any work arounds technically to deal with that.
In this video I steer away from the idea of looking at this problem technically. Because for many people I think they’d make their BJJ skill better if they focused on develop their physical fitness and living a healthier lifestyle. Along with that I share a few quick stories about students and friends I’ve had in Jiu-jitsu who made massive improvements in their BJJ abilities by focusing on improving their fitness level.
Also, if you take my advice on hiring a coach for your diet. Here’s the social media page for my nutrition coach who writes out my meals for me.
