When are you just training hard and when do you cross the line into the realm of a mat bully?

This is a question that came from our friend Tim who was recently accused of being a bully in his Brazilian Jiu-jitsu gym.

He also makes a reference to mat bullys in a recent video I did.

The video our friend Tim was asking about was here: https://youtu.be/diTEcRp1aOg

In this video I look at the situation where Tim who is a White Belt in BJJ was applying pressure to another White Belt. The aim was to get a response and open up a armbar submission.

The big idea I try to zero in on is that it’s not always what you do, but where does it come from.

Meaning are your actions on the mat coming from a place of desire and passion for Brazilian Jiujitsu, or are you actions fueled by neediness to win and insecurity.

I’ve personally been on both sides of the fence in relationship to this issue. I’ve been the needy guy who was overly aggressive and only cared about winning.

Now I train hard, but always with a focus of excitement for training and an attempt to better myself and my training partners.

If this is a situation you’ve found yourself in, I hope this video is helpful for you and your BJJ training.

So I get asked a question very often and I simply cannot answer it.

It get’s worded something like, “What’s the best technique in BJJ?”

If you’re experienced in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu you’ll know right off the bat that there isn’t one. The idea of a “best” technique is ridiculous.

If there was a best technique or position or anything like that. We’d all be doing that and only that.

But the reality is that Brazilian Jiujitsu offers a wide range of techniques and positions that favor certain body types and styles of play.

You only have to look around your gym or a competition where you can see a variety of different styles of BJJ in use. And the best part is, they all work!

It’s not like a sport such as basketball where there is a somewhat uniform look to the players.

Instead BJJ offers a wide range of body types and they’re all doing well.

So if you do decide to ask a question. Please do not ask me what the “best” technique is because I cannot give you that answer.

The best for me may not, and probably won’t, be the best for you.

Instead if you give me a specific problem that I can help solve related to your BJJ training or competitions. Then I can focus on that problem and try to be of service to you.

This is simply because I want to be of use to you and be helpful. And if I answered a “best” question I’d not be completely honest.

Thanks for all the questions you do send and I look forward to growing with you!

-Chewy

https://www.yogaforbjj.net/breathing-program-sebastian/ – Sebastian’s tips for breathing (bjj and meditation purposes)

https://www.yogaforbjj.net/breathing-program-two/ – learn specific breathing techniques with Artur Paulins

The complete set of videos is meant to teach you how to control your breath during stressful moments, how to breathe while stretching/doing yoga, how to breathe with your diaphragm, for recovery and much more.

The S Mount is a VERY powerful position in BJJ – it puts a TON of pressure on your opponent and gives you unparalleled opportunities to attack with the armbar and other submissions. One way to get into the S Mount is to jump into it from side control when your opponent is keeping his arms tight. This is a movement of intermediate complexity but you can train it on your own using a heavy bag on the mat (shown in the first few seconds of this video).

I asked one of my students about some his Ezekiel Set Ups. Because he can’t use his legs, he’s become dangerous from “bad” positions.

And, the Ezekiel Choke is one of his sneakiest, most useful weapons.
I asked him to show me a few of his set ups.
