A reader of my newsletter (https://www.grapplearts.com/newsletter) had a question about how to become better at setting up his submissions. I try to explain the concepts of singular attacks, combination attacks, and feinting attacks using multiple high-percentage examples
In today’s video I share a little secret for longevity in BJJ and a tip that is incredibly useful for making it to Black Belt and beyond. Now I know that language of “secrets” is a little hyperbolic, but I see so many people struggle with the idea I share in this video. I also, don’t see a lot of people talk about this. But it’s something that’s been helpful in my BJJ training and practice when forced to work around injuries or help my training partners do the same.
Now I’m sharing this because this situation just happened the other day with one of my Brazilian Jiu-jitsu students and it happens regularly.
So watch the video and weather you’re injured now, have a training partner injured or simply keep the idea on the backburner. Hopefully the information in the video is useful to you.

I get a lot of questions from people (my students and online followers) about the best foods to eat before BJJ training. Many people ask this because they struggle to eat and then train without feeling sick. I literally just had this conversation with one of my students in the gym the other day.
So in this video I share some basic ideas on what’s worked for me and my Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training. Warning! This is a video talking about diet which means everyone, and their mother is going to have something to say about it. Here’s my advice. Don’t fall victim to zealotry when it comes to dieting. Most often people push this stuff for their benefit, not yours.
And with that said my encouragement is to try things out for yourself. So I lay out the methodology of me pre-training nutrition along with some of my favorite pre-training foods.
Hopefully the video is useful to you.

There are 2 big mistakes I see people make when they’re trying to finish their collar chokes in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. It’s something I did as a White and Blue Belt . . . to be honest, it’s something I’ve done even into the higher belt ranks. But especially at the lower ranks it was a problem.
So, in this BJJ technique video I’ll show you the simple corrections to these 2 common collar choke mistakes. By simply fixing these 2 errors you could possibly take your collar chokes that aren’t working now and making them effective during rolling.
I know this has been the case for me and my Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training.
Oh and in case you watch the video and don’t understand the terms casting and reeling, I’m referencing the actions you use with a fishing pole.
Hope the video helps you with your training.

Today’s question is about getting a medal for losing all your matches in a BJJ competition. The question comes from a guy who was in a 3-man division, lost both of his matches and got a 3rd place medal.
He said that when the medal was offered to him, he didn’t accept it. He didn’t feel like he earned it. And he sent the question to me about whether or not he did the “right” thing by not accepting the medal.
So I chat about the idea, briefly, about participation medals in BJJ competitions and why I think his decision was better than the 1 that many people make when they become too attached to medals and trophies.

One of the questions I’ve been asked a bunch recently is whether or not you can get promoted in BJJ if you only do No Gi. This question is coming about more and more as people decide to focus more on No Gi training rather than the gi.
So in this video I share some ideas on promoting people in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu who choose to focus on No Gi training. I’ll also share how I do things at my gym and my thought process behind it. One of which is that I require gis to be worn for belt promotions.
Thanks for watching.

Recently one of my students said he saw a post that was rating BJJ youtube channels. Out of curiosity I asked what my was rated as. He said it was a B. The reason I was not rated as an A is because. . .
#1 I talk too much.
#2 I don’t do enough rolling videos.
So in this video I share why I don’t post many rolling videos on the channel even though I’m on the mats no less than 5 days a week. Now I will be posting some rolling footage from time to time in a new format and only when I have something that I think could be useful to share with others as a learning experience.
So if you’re a Chewjitsu fan and enjoy the channel. That’s the reason why.
