Black-Belt/Adult/Male/Medium-Heavy – Quarterfinal

Black-Belt/Adult/Male/Middle – Semifinal

Recently I did a video about Half Guard and getting out of a flattened out situation. Many of the comments in that video said the technique was helpful. But I did have 1 that said the video was too complicated.

In the comments section Assaf wrote: “Way too complicated. I got lost. Can you break it down to separate videos. One technique per video. And slower. This is fundamentals. This is where I always get lost. I’m so bad with all these rules. Show each rule. Don’t just say the rule. Please. Thank you 🙏”

So I wanted to do this video to share with Assaf, and anyone like him, how I digest information and fight against things being overcomplicated.

In this video I’ll share the key habit which is rewatching and re-attempting to put the information to use over and over again. I won’t watch a video once. I’ll watch it over and over again for multiple days. I’ll become almost obsessed with that technique until I either get it working or decide to move on.

Hopefully the story I share in the video illustrates this point well enough and helps you with your own consumption of BJJ instructional videos.

Btw, here is the Half Guard video I referenced in case you want to watch it:

Thanks for watching.

In this video I share a cautionary tale about talking during rolling from when I was a BJJ White Belt. I share the story from my Brazilian Jiujitsu training because I received a question about talking during rolling. I know this will not be the most groundbreaking question and answer video I’ve ever done, but I do have a fun story to share with it and I hope you enjoy the video.

When it comes to talking during Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, it’s going to happen. Part of the reason why so many of us stick to Jiu-jitsu is the bonding that happens on the mat. We are in a place where we train and exercises. But it’s also a place where we get to know each other in person, not digitally, and become friends.

I know that one of the reason I’ve continued to train for so long is 100% the community of people inside the gym.

With that said, ever gym is different. In my gym we talk shit to each other constantly in a fun and laughing way. Some gyms don’t do this. So ultimately look to the leaders of your gym to figure out what is acceptable.

But I hope you find the story entertaining and enjoy the video. And if you have a question about talking during BJJ training then I hope it’s useful to you!

Thanks for watching!
