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.

I’m getting ready for 2024 No-Gi Worlds in a few weeks, bulking up for a run at Super Heavyweight.

But anyway, I was thinking about the fact that I’ve been competing since the year 2000 in Wrestling/BJJ.

It’s been a wild 24 years. I’m getting old!

On top of that, I’ve had a lot of time to make mistakes, and adjustments, and develop some wisdom in the long years I’ve been competing in Jiu-Jitsu.

In this video, I’ll share a philosophy that changed my life in and outside of BJJ competitions. It’s an idea of high standards but low expectations. Meaning high standards for yourself but low or no expectations for how the outcome should go. I’ll explain more in the video.

Thanks for watching!

What’s up guys, today we’ve got a question from a guy named Brian who has this idea that I think a lot of us in the martial arts world tend to hold.

Brian is getting ready to compete as a Blue Belt and he’s nervous.

He said he competed a little bit as a BJJ White Belt but didn’t feel great doing it.

He says he feels pretty dang good when he’s practicing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in the gym, but when he gets out on the competition mats, the nerves take over.

Because of this, he feels like he always underperforms.

He says he’d like to get rid of the fear and asked if I had any tips to help out with that.

In this video I’ll try to share something with Brian that most fighters/grapplers come to terms with as far as competition goes, that actually SKYROCKETS your ability to compete, and it might surprise you.

Hopefully if you’re struggling with competition anxiety, then you found the ideas in this video helpful.
