BJJ Comp Mindset Archives

A lot of people struggle with aggression on the Jiu-Jitsu mats.

I’m not talking about wild, uncontrolled aggression, but rather technical, efficient, BJJ-specific aggressiveness.

Recently, I had a student dealing with this exact issue. She’s a recreational competitor who was frustrated because she didn’t want to come across as a jerk to her training partners — but she also didn’t want to be too passive.

In this video, I’ll share what I told her to help develop healthy, controlled aggression in a safe and technical way, and how you can apply the same ideas to your own training or competition.

Hope you enjoy the video.

Thanks for watching!

What’s up, guys!

Today’s question comes from a viewer who’s looking to get back into Jiu-Jitsu competitions after a 5-year break due to life and parenthood. He’s finally starting to get the itch again, but he’s feeling unsure about whether he still has the aggression and competitiveness that most Jiu-Jitsu competitors have.

He’s worried about going to a competition and getting smashed, and he’s asking if I have any tips to help him get back into the groove.

In this video, I’ll share my own experience with competing, taking a 2-year break for various reasons, and how I eventually got back into the world of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu competitions.

I’ll also talk about the mental shift I had over time—the way my mindset changed as I got older. Competition became a lot less important to me, and the fuel I ran on evolved.

I hope you find this video helpful. Let’s get into it!

Thanks for watching.
