Black-belt/Adult/Male/Open-Class – Quarterfinal
Strength training for BJJ is something I get lots of questions about.
I have a hunch this is because my meathead-ness is expressed often in BJJ.
One exercise that is excellent but at the same time can be a bit of a bugger for Brazilian Jiu-jitsu practitioner is the Squat.
The Squat is such a strong exercise for the whole body with endless variations.
One reason the Squat is so problematic for people who do BJJ is their hip tightness. This is caused by the constant flexion on the mat and the inconsistency with stretching to loosen and exercises to strengthen extension.
In this video I share a great piece of equipment the Belt Squat machine. This is the type of squat I like to do and it’s easy on the lower back.
There are a number of different ways details and benefits I share in the video. But if you’re a BJJ athlete or practitioner who wants to build stronger legs but avoids the traditional back squat because of pain in the lower back.
I’d simply invite you to try this exercise if you can. I’ve found with a number of our members in my gym that they’ve been able to use it with no issues whatsoever and have received an overall strength benefit.
This allows them to get stronger and still be ready for their BJJ training.
Hope this video was helpful!

If you’re a Half Guard focused BJJ player or ever get into the Dogfight position then you know how troublesome a well placed overhook can be.
In this video we’re going to get into this position and look at a couple of options.
Today’s BJJ video request from Gui who is playing Half Guard in his gym but is getting mauled by the overhook / whizzer when he attempts to come up for the sweep.
In the video I give 2 different options that can be used to counter the Overhook.
The 1st is simple limp arm / lazy arm. I probably use this technique the most. It’s just such a strong attack to throw into the mix. And I’ve used it over and over again.
Both in BJJ training in the gym and competitions.
The 2nd option is a roll under sweep using the “regrip.”
If you’ve watch any of my Half Guard technique videos you’ll see me showing the re grip sweep over and over again.
And it’s a great counter to Wrestlers and those types who try to use overhooks to counter sweeps and movements.
This is because they are literally giving you the grip you need to make the sweep effective.
So if you’re struggling from the Dogfight position or getting smashed in this position with the overhook. I hope the techniques are helpful.
