A great documentary on Rolls Gracie.
Rolls Gracie was one of the most important members of the Gracie family, being the family’s champion in the 1970’s, considered to be the father of modern day jiu jitsu through his ideas on cross training in different martial arts. Rolls is arguably the most influential figure in the history of the sport, having affected most of the following generations in jiu jitsu, including great practitioners such as “Carlinhos” Gracie (founder of Gracie-Barra), Rickson Gracie (BJJ legend), Royce Gracie (UFC Hall of Fame), Romero Cavalcanti (Founder of Alliance BJJ team) and many others.

Mr Jiujitsu and Chewy on Relationships, Cross Training and Gym Gis
In this video myself and Mike ( Aka Mr Jiujitsu from Facebook) sat down and answered a few questions. Mike was in town so we’ve had the chance to train together a bit and decided to have fun and do a video together.
We definitely answer the BJJ questions in different ways and from different perspectives.
The questions look something like this. . .
1. What should I do when my significant other is trying to take time away from my Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training?
2. My Brazilian Jiujitsu coach is wanting me to start wearing the gym gi. I’m wondering if this is normal or if it’s McDojo.
3. What’s are our thoughts on cross training at other Bjj gyms in the area.
But I hope you enjoy the video!

Scissor Sweep for BJJ White Belts (Try These Adjustments)
The Scissor Sweep is one of the first Sweeps from Guard that most BJJ White Belts learn. And in a recent video where I covered some simple adjustments to the Keylock. Several of the White Belts that watch the channel asked for some tips on some of the really basic Brazilian Jiu-jitsu techniques that White Belts use.
So I decided to cover the Scissor Sweep since this is one of the 1st sweeps most White Belts learn. In addition, the movement used for the Scissor Sweep will be used over and over again in Brazilian Jiujitsu. Whether you’re trying to sweep of if you’re trying to open guard and transition to other positions beside the full guard.
In this video I show some simple adjustments and tweaks to the Scissor Sweep that have made this BJJ technique useable for me as a higher level belt and in addition been very helpful to many of my students.
Simple things like turning the wrist over, grinding the hips up rather than simply coming up to the knees in mount have really helped.
Try combining these adjustments with some of the instruction your BJJ coach teaches you at your gym.
I hope this video helps your BJJ Scissor Sweep regardless of whether you’re a White Belt or not.
Thanks for watching!

How to Overcome Fear of Being Choked in BJJ
Do you struggle with getting choke in BJJ? Does it freak you out a little or make you panic?
Recently I received a Brazilian Jiu-jitsu related question from Aline who said she was struggling with getting chokes during her training.
In spite of training hard doing Brazilian Jiujitsu, MMA and other combat sports. She still struggles when she get’s choked. In particular she says the triangle choke freaks her out. She even says that sometimes she will cry because of the feelings that happen.
I relate to her. Because in the beginning when I was a BJJ White Belt I used to freak out and hyperventilate when I would be stuck in Mount. To the point that during training I would just tap out. Later on I found myself struggling with the same choke as Aline in BJJ. The triangle choke.
It became my kryptonite and when someone applied the choke in a BJJ competition or rolling. I would freeze up and just give up mentally.
In this video I discuss the problem our friend is having and I also go into detail with how I overcame the issues. The biggest piece of advice in the video is simply desensitize yourself by going into these positions more and more.
If you’re having a similar issue as this, then I hope the video and short Chewy Ramble is helpful.
Thanks!

Bait the Guard Pass for this Half Guard Sweep
This is another BJJ Half Guard sweep that I use against the overhook. We are using the Regrip again against the overhook to protect against the Darce choke and to secure the arm for the sweep.
In a previous video I showed a Half Guard sweep against a person (possibly a Wrestler) doing an Overhook. You can see that sweep here: https://youtu.be/AFnUUPjSCNs
When I’m able to get this low Half Guard position with the outside hook in Brazilian Jiujitsu. The Overhook is one of the most commonly used counters.
In some cases I can get under the person with my hips and sweep them.
However, people with strong bases will position themselves in a way where it makes that sort of sweep from Half Guard very difficult.
This is when I might switch off to this particular sweep.
When I use the Sit Out to Double Leg from the Half Guard, as I show in this video. It’s a counter move, or you might consider it a bait move. Meaning I’m countering something my opponent is doing.
These moves can be tricky at first and might require a little trial and error.
But when you use a good counter move in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu they are incredibly effective. They often make your opponent move right into the place you want them. Just think to your own training when someone baited you into something.
I like this move as it blends my Wrestling with my Brazilian Jiujitsu game. And I think it’s effective because it causes you to change gears. You’re going from Guard player on their back to coming up to a Double Leg style takedown.
I hope this technique is useful for you with your Half Guard in BJJ.

Don’t Make the same White Belt Mistake I did (Tighter Keylock Tip)
Want a simple grip tweak to make your Keylock better? The trick I show in this video is great for making the Keylock in BJJ tighter.
This is one I show to my White Belts in my BJJ classes because it’s a mistake I made all the time when I used the Americana in Brazilian Jiujitsu.
I would get excited and not secure the position to finish the submission effectively. I had several tournaments as a BJJ White Belt where I had this locked up and then would lose it to poor finishing technique.
My students have really enjoyed this tweak and experienced a lot of success with them during rolling and Brazilian Jiu-jitsu competition.
Thanks! Hope it helps.

Toe Tuck BJJ Half Guard Sweep (Gi or No Gi)
The Toe Tuck Sweep / Position is one of the 1st Half Guard sweeps I started using successfully from this low Half Guard position I’ve shown in this series.
I say Half Guard Sweep / Position because I have numerous attacks from the Toe Tuck. So even if these sweep options stop. I have lots of other techniques I can use for my Brazilian Jiu-jitsu.
In this video I also share why I use this style of Half Guard for Brazilian Jiujitsu.
One reason is that I’m able to fight against the Knee Cut Pass which is a fantastic option when faced against a Half Guard position.
Another tip is that when I come up for these sweeps. I make sure to come up on my elbows in a particular way that makes this sweep effective for my Brazilian Jiujitsu game.
So if you’re trying to develop a better BJJ Half Guard game. I hope this latest BJJ sweep addition of one of my favorites is helpful to you!
Thanks!
