Who you roll with really matters — especially as an older grappler. The wrong partner can cause injuries and setbacks, while the right one helps you stay on the mats for years.

In this clip, black belt instructor Marc Barton shares Tip #1 from his Top 5 Tips for Older Grapplers video. A former emergency medicine doctor who started BJJ at 30 and earned his black belt at 40, Marc now trains and teaches full-time at 49 — stronger and more resilient than ever.

The post Older Grapplers: Choose Your Training Partners Wisely appeared first on jitseasy.

Today we’ve got a question from a bigger White Belt named Lee.

He’s been training for about a year and is finally climbing up the “pecking order”, especially for the less experienced guys in the room.

At this point he is finally getting the better of the newer white belts, but he has a question about rolling with them.

He wonders if he should allow them to work a little bit, which is what he says he does now, or if he should I just roll like “normal” and go after them.

He doesn’t want to seem overconfident or arrogant though, and so he’s not sure if “letting them work” is a good look.

Lee is also wondering what my philosophy is when I roll with less experienced grapplers or brand-new white belts.

In this video I’ll answer Lee’s initial question & share with you guys how I go about training with less experienced people in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and how I get the most out of the roll: both helping that person grown & making myself better at the same time.

Hopefully this video answers your question Lee, and if any of you had a similar question then I hope you found it helpful too!

This video I discuss the importance of developing end point positions first. Often we try ti memorize open guard positions, and while this can be useful its critical to deeply understand the end positions first because they are the easiest to calculate. I reccomend people new to jiu jitsu should start with submissions first, then positional controls, then open guard positions.
