Black-Belt/Adult/Female/Open-Class – Final
In this video Joe and I do a workout together and answer questions from Instagram.
We also tough on some ideas for weight training for BJJ during our own lifting.
You can check out Joe here:
https://www.youtube.com/user/Unriavledfitness
Here are some of the questions from video:
Which is better for BJJ crosstraining? Yoga or weight training?
Best way to lose weight and gain muscle?
Does jiu-jitsu give you muscle?
Is a hot dog a sandwich?
Discipline or Motivation ?
How to cut weight and lose minimal amounts of muscle?
Should I keep more muscle or slim down?
What supplements I take?
My workout that day was pretty light. I kept to some bench press, pendlay rows and some auxiliary work and Joe is working on some olympic lifting.
I hope you guys enjoyed the video and if you have any questions. Put them down below.

This past weekend following the ADCC North American Trials I saw a comment on Instagram that went something to the effect of “he beat that bjj Youtuber” or something like that.
And I honestly understand completely.
In a world of social media, there’s so much BS. As I talk about in the video there are so many situations and it often causes us to be apprehensive of people because we don’t want to be tricked.
And one of the things that is nice about me continuing to compete in BJJ competitions is that I can show you that I’m walking my walk.
I do the things that I say.
I may not be the best at every facet of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. But I walk my talk. I proceed with 100% integrity.
And I will continue to do so.
I hope you enjoy the video.

This video is based off of one of my recent Instagram posts which was inspired by my experiences in my own life. Both on the mat and off the mat.
I can’t tell you how many times in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, Wrestling or in other aspects of my life where this message rang true.
I believe this is the way it is for most of us. We’re our own biggest enemy.
There’s so much brilliance inside of us but we can only realize it when we get out of our own way and make it happen.
Here’s the original post:
There’s a special moment of relief at the end of a training session or competition.
As your coach gathers everyone together for one last huddle to finish class, or the ref raises the hand of the victor.
You realize. . . the struggle is over. You did what you set out to do and the white flag of your enemy has been raised.
But the enemy is not your opponent at the competition or your training partners. . . It’s yourself.
A battle had been waged and won that day, an internal siege had been lifted. As the army of your own anxiety, harsh judgments and laziness was beaten back.
Defeated were the thoughts of skipping training, sitting out another round or avoiding the upcoming competition because deep down you were afraid you’re not good enough.
Regardless of the outcome of that days training or competition. What matters is you conquered yourself.
And tomorrow the forces of your own shadow will reappear. As they do everyday. Ready for another battle and looking for a weakness in you.
But where there is a shadow there is a light.
And that light comes from the strength, intelligence and intensity inside you.
Embrace the suck, take joy in these daily battles, whether on or off the mat.
Because everyday you choose to follow your heart and take action is a day the enemy inside you becomes a little weaker, your light a little bigger. . . your shadow a little smaller.
I hope you guys enjoy the video!

In Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, there is typically a grip needed to finish a technique. Whether this is a Choke, Armlock or whatever.
Oftentimes I find that if I’m very focused on getting that finishing grip quickly, my success with the technique shoots up dramatically.
For instance if I’m doing a choke.
If I get what I call the “Kill grip” I’m usually able to finish the technique.
When I say “Kill Grip” I’m speaking about the the grip that’s essential to finishing the technique I’m looking for.
In this video I answer a question from Max who says he’s having people tuck their necks and defend his submission attempts with chokes during BJJ training.
So in this video I discuss the getting the best grip quickly for whatever technique you’re looking for during rolling or competitions.
The big focus with chokes is to get the deepest grips in the collar or around the neck possible. This way the person doesn’t have a chance to stop the submission.
I hope the video is helpful with your Brazilian Jiujitsu training or competitions.

Black-Belt/Adult/Male/Ultra-Heavy – Final
Black-Belt/Adult/Male/Middle – Final
In this video my buddy Joe and I got a lift in on a Monday morning.
Here’s Joe’s Youtube if you want to learn more: https://www.youtube.com/user/Unriavledfitness
Before the lift started I threw up a story on Instagram and asked for questions regarding weight training for BJJ.
If you have no muscle, is it better to do low reps high weight or high weight low reps in the beginning?
Do you do any grip strength training for no gi?
How should you split of weight training , BJJ and possibly muay thai training?
You’ll also notice that I am not going incredibly heavy. And honestly this is mostly the case with my lifting. I rarely go SUPER heavy in the gym.
As I’ve figured out over the years. Only so much of that is going to find it’s way to the way to the mats when I’m doing Brazilian Jiu-jitsu.
Along with all of this you’ll hear us talk about whatever we are planning to talk about. As well as a few nuggets of information about strength training in relation to BJJ.
Talk to you guys next time!

BJJ, Boxing, Judo, Sambo, Wrestling and all of the Combat Sports commonly used in MMA are incredible for creating inner discipline.
But not in a direct way. Rather, it’s often in an indirect way.
During the stress of hard training you’re often faced with the darker sides of your personality. The sides of your personality that often don’t show up in a day to day basis.
For instance if you get angry. You will learn in hard training session that you cannot train with anger. And so when the angry side of your self pops up you have to control it.
In the video I talk about how when I started Boxing. My EGO was a big problem for me. And through the hard sparring sessions I had to learn to be in better mental control.
This video is a response to the question asked by our friend who was in a Street Fight situation. During which he grappler the person but did not throw any punches.
After the fight he said he felt kind of “soft” because he didn’t throw any punches.
In this video I talk about the control we learn from combat sports and how it’s useful for making stronger both physically as well as mentally. After all the aim is self-defense. To defend yourself, not to harm people for no reason.
I hope you find the video helpful!
