Today we’ve got a question from Chew Crew subscriber, Andrew, who asked the question

“How long should a Blue Belt work on a particular technique or position (for example Butterfly guard/armbars/etc.)? Do you work on these things until you are at a Black Belt Level?”

This is a good question for BJJ Blue Belts, and I will give you a few ideas that I use to this day.

You can use them at Blue Belt, but you can definitely use these ideas from White-Black Belt too.

Hopefully, if you had a similar question, you found this video helpful.

Thanks for watching!

In today’s video I answer a question about BJJ training from our friend who is a Blue Belt in BJJ. He says that he enjoys rolling with the higher ranking belts inside his gym because they are a bit safer.

But the issue there is that he is almost always playing pure defense.

He enjoys rolling with the white belts and less experienced people because he can execute some offensive techniques. But the issue with them is that they aren’t as safe as the higher ranks.

So his question boils down to this. Do you have to train with white belts and less experienced people in Brazilian Jiujitsu, of can you just roll with the higher ones?

In my experience it’s good to have a mix, as I’ll explain in the video.

Against higher ranking belts you learn what good Jiu-jitsu feels like and you begin to zero in on your defense.

But it’s still important to focus some of your rolling attention on people less skilled than you. Because against these people you get a chance to play around with more offensive based techniques.

In this video I share a story from my experience with a friend who got way way better at Brazilian Jiu-jitsu once we had new people in the gym to train with.

Hope you enjoyed the video!

The post Rolling with White Belts is Better for Offensive Techniques in BJJ appeared first on jitseasy.

BJJ sport training is one of the only sports I’ve ever seen where there is very little methodology of how hard to train.

Most sports combine some mixture of hard and lighter elements of training to round things out.

But Brazilian Jiu-jitsu often doesn’t. So practitioners often fall into this misconception that the only way to get better in BJJ is to GO HARD all the time.

In today’s video I answer a question from our friend who is asking about how to roll with weaker smaller people during BJJ training.

He says this not because he wants to adjust to them, but because he implies that he isn’t going to improve if he rolls wit them.

I try to debunk this myth by sharing how I rolled with mostly White and Blue Belts for some of my early Black Belt competitions.

Very similar to weaker people in the gym. I could crush them if I wanted. But I roll with them very deliberately to improve and prepare myself for Black belt matches.

If you’re in a similar situation in BJJ. I hope this video encourages you to think a little differently about how you can train with smaller, weaker or less skill BJJ training partners.

Talk to you next time!
