Building Up Self Confidence with Grappling and MMA

Gary Berger — Wed, 01 Aug 2018 02:15:00 +0000

Today’s question from Selena is about self confidence. It pertains to her training BJJ for the 1st time. But she lacks confidence overall and would like to change that.

In this video I come from the perspective of someone who had no confidence when they were younger.

If you’ve watched my videos then you know that in high school I lacked confidence and it wasn’t until I continually trained in Wrestling and Brazilian Jiu-jitsu that I pulled myself out of it.

And I talk about the process and how you’re not necessarily born with self confidence. But instead you build it up like a muscle.

I talk about going from an overweight high schooler who couldn’t even talk to people to becoming a professional MMA fighter who talks to thousands of people through a camera.

The biggest idea I try to share in this video is that self confidence doesn’t mean you aren’t nervous or that you don’t have fears.

Confidence in yourself, whether BJJ or otherwise, is having those anxieties and fears but knowing that you can take care of it, that you can deal with it and overcome it.

So if you someone struggling with confidence in yourself. Whether to start your 1st BJJ class or something else. I hope the video is helpful!

This White Belts 1st Day of BJJ Almost Never Happened

Gary Berger — Tue, 19 Jun 2018 02:00:02 +0000

Recently I had a student who had his very 1st day of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. But this White Belt’s 1st class almost never happened.

I ended up catching him walking out of the gym doors about to head home. He had his BJJ gi on with his gym bag in hand.

I stopped him and told him to hell with fear, fuck fear.

He had his gi on, he has been wanting to start training and he knows me. So I said, let’s do it!

He came back in the gym and had his very 1st day of BJJ and it went great. And this new BJJ White Belt has trained several times since then. And I sincerely hope he continues to push through.

And I decided to share this story because I receive messages from many of you who are interested in training. But for 1 reason or another. You choose not to.

Many of the reasons you bring up are not legitimate reasons, but rather are reasons cooked up by irrational fears.

When I speak to someone who waited to start Brazilian Jiujitsu. Oftentimes the only regret they have is that they waited as long as they did. It was never regret out of starting.

So if you haven’t started yet but you want to, I hope you find this video useful.
