Today we’ve got a question from Mo, a Brown Belt.

He is an 11-year BJJ Brown Belt, a bit heavier. When he’s training at his gym, he’s able to do 10 rounds and train hard.

But, when he goes to another gym, especially with other heavy guys, he finds himself getting extremely tired.

He’s wondering what’s going on and what ideas I might have that could be helpful.

Hopefully, if you’re a big boy in Jiu-Jitsu and struggle with something similar, you find this helpful.

Thanks for watching.

The post BJJ Brown Belt Gasses Out Rolling at Other Gyms appeared first on jitseasy.

Today we’ve got a question from a BJJ Blue Belt, named Tye, who recently pissed off his Brown Belt training partner.

He’s a young guy & the Brown Belt was someone who essentially took him under his wing. Well, the other day they were rolling, and Tye caught the Brown belt in the Guillotine.

The Brown Belt does not tap, Tye makes multiple adjustments, and at some point, 4 or so minutes in, after the Brown Belt escaped, he bashed the Blue Belt for the rest of the round.

After they got done rolling the Brown Belt was obviously pissed.

Tye sends the message asking what he should have done in this situation.

In this video, I’ll give you a specific tip to prevent this from happening again. I’ll also discuss the higher belts perspective and what he could have done.

Hopefully, you found the answer useful Tye, and for anyone else out there who has had this situation happen to them, I hope this helps you too.

Thanks for watching.

The post Blue Belt Pisses Off Brown Belt with a Sloppy Submission appeared first on jitseasy.

Today we’ve got a question from Joe who is wondering what BJJ Black Belts/Jiu-Jitsu Instructors watch for when looking at students rolling.

He says that his gym is like most where they do a basic warm-up, drill techniques, then do live rounds.

He says that there are so many times that he wants to work on something new, but he’s scared that this might make him look bad Infront of his coach: because with most new techniques you try, you suck at them initially.

He doesn’t want his coach to think “Damn, he’s not improving and he’s not ready for advancement”

Joe, it would be helpful if you talked to your coach for clarification, but here’s how I view my students’ rolls…

Hopefully, you found this video helpful.

Thanks for watching!

The post BJJ Student is Afraid of Losing in Front of His Coach appeared first on jitseasy.

What’s up guys,

Today we’ve got a question from Aaron, who is getting a little older, 49 years old, and he’s had a string of bad luck (ACL Tear, Cancer, COVID, Labral Tear in his Shoulders, etc).

He’s a 4-stripe brown belt but says he feels like an absolute shell of his former self.

He says that when he was a BJJ Purple Belt, he was training a lot more and would decimate this new, 4-stripe brown belt version of him.

He’s worried that he’s not ready for the impending black belt that is soon to come.

He’s wondering if he should tell his coach NOT to promote him to Black Belt OR if he should just take the Black Belt and be happy with it.

Thanks for watching!

The post What To Learn In Jiu Jitsu When You Are A BJJ Brown Belt by Mikey Musumeci appeared first on jitseasy.

The post Tips For BJJ Brown Belt appeared first on jitseasy.

Have you ever heard of the term “Gym Enforcer” at your Brazilian Jiu-jitsu academy?

It’s a pretty simple idea. Just like the old hockey enforcers who were sent out to check certain players on the ice. A gym enforcer is there to check certain behaviors on the mat.

In this video our friend Dee was put in the position as gym enforcer by his coach.

There was a mat bully in the BJJ gym he trains at who was roughing people up unnecessary and not being safe. The coaches had talked to the guy. But he still continued.

So Dee, who is a BJJ Brown Belt, was told to put it on the guy and he did.

The bad part for Dee is that the guy hasn’t made it back to training since. And he feels like maybe he ruined someone’s Brazilian Jiu-jitsu experience.

In this video I share that the idea of a gym enforcer in your Brazilian Jiujitsu gym is fairly common.

You don’t rough people up unnecessarily but you need people to be aware of reality.

If you were on a basketball team and you had a new player who wasn’t very good, but better than some, begin talking trash to the players. You might have one of the better players school him on the court to check the situation before it becomes negative to the whole team.

I also share how being a gym enforcer is helping maintain the safe boundaries inside of your gym and share a term I read in a book called Iron John.

The term is Walled Garden, and simply means establishing a secure place for us to cultivate ourselves.

This cultivation cannot happen if people are creating negativity inside the ranks of the gym.

Enjoy the video!
-Chewy

The post BJJ Brown Belt Demolished a Mat Bully (Feels Upset About It) appeared first on jitseasy.

In this video I’m sharing one of my BJJ rolls with my Brown Belt buddy Kenny from Nashville.

He’s a super tough Brazilian Jiu-jitsu competitor who’s won and placed in some really big tournaments and I always enjoy getting a roll with him.

He’s another big guy who likes to get after it, so it’s always fun.

I wanted to share this video because many of you have asked for full rolls. And I think it also illustrates a great example of someone rolling at a good pace.

But not trying to kill one another.

At the end of the video I show him some of the moves that I was using during our roll like the side control escape and underhook fighting from Half Guard.

I hope you enjoy the video of our BJJ training and rolling from this past years Shawn Hammonds Team Training.
