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.

Today we have a question from “Bob” who sends a message to me saying that they’ve been practicing BJJ for 2.5 years, has competed several times, and has won his first round match every single time. Buth there’s an issue…

Every time Bob has competed, they have lost their second-round match.

They feel exhausted and worn out after every first-round match at Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu tournaments and can’t wrap their mind around WHY this keeps happening to them.

They say that they can roll all day in the practice room, but get extremely exhausted in actual competition.

Bob asks me how he can prevent this exhaustion and burn out from happening at tournaments.

Here’s what I think.

Today we have a question from Nathan, who sends me an email, and asked:

“Chewy what is the worst screw job you’ve seen in a Brazilian jiu-jitsu competition.”

Well, after training BJJ for so long and watching so many matches, you might be surprised that I have seen a ton of “screw jobs”.

BJJ competitions tend to be famous for egregious calls in tournaments, which can be pretty annoying as an athlete, coach, or even spectator who is trying to understand the sport.

In this video, I share one bad call that I have experienced both as a coach and then one particularly bad call I experienced as an athlete in a Brazilian Jiu-jitsu competition as a Blue Belt.

Hope you find these ideas useful.

Also, let me know down in the comments below if you’ve gotten any horrible calls and let me know what they were.
