What do you do if you don’t like the way your BJJ coach directs you at competitions or training?

This is our “Bob” question today from one of the viewers who is a Blue Belt in BJJ and dislike how their coach. . . coaches them.

They said that the coaching style is not preferable because it’s more of a barking demanding style.

Meaning when competing they yell and scream to tell them to do certain things. This disrupts “Bob” and causes them to perform worse.

This is demonstrated by the fact that when their coach isn’t there, Bob has done really well.

So in this video I talk about how to talk to your Brazilian Jiu-jitsu coach about difficult topics.

If you’re having a situation with your coach and need to bring up a difficult topic. I hope this helps.

If you’d ever like to train with the team and I. Check out my gym Derby City MMA in Louisville,KY.

I received a question from a BJJ Dad who says his son is on the fence about quitting BJJ competitions.

Initially his son started doing the Brazilian Jiu-jitsu competitions but after 5 losses he’s lost his fire.

His dad is wondering if he should continue to push his son or simply let him quit Brazilian Jiujitsu all together.

In this video I share why I believe he should nudge his son forward with his competitions.

In BJJ, as with any hard to acquire skill, there are sticky points. And these sticky points are what separate people. There are those who quit when things get tough and those who continue to push on.

The good news is that you can develop the ability to push onward. It’s just like any muscle. You have to work on it and develop it.

I even share a story about one of the members of my Kids BJJ program who broke through this same barrier.

So listen to the stories in the video and hopefully this is useful for at least entertaining.

Oh and here is the Felipe Costa Documentary: https://youtu.be/1vfxspE5Fh8

I love BJJ training but my family hates it! What should I do?

This is the question I got from our friend Liz who is a White Belt in today’s Chewy Ramble.

I related to Liz because when I started Wrestling, BJJ and MMA. My mother was very much against the idea.

Now she was super supportive. She always had my back. But she didn’t like the idea of me fighting.

I don’t think she was against Brazilian Jiu-jitsu or MMA because she hated it, but because she was concerned for me.

I remember when I won my 1st MMA fight. I showed my mom and after seeing the fight. My mom hit me and called me mean!

And she would always ask me, “Why are you doing this?”

Now even though she didn’t like it, she respected it. And she respected it because of the hard work I put into it and the dedication she saw.

In the video I share how I believe Liz’s family will slowly begin to respect her decision to get into Brazilian Jiujitsu and grappling.

It happens overtime because they realize that it’s REAL, it’s not going away.

So Liz, I hope this video was helpful. And if you’re into BJJ and having a similar issue, I hope it’s helpful to you.

Deadly double rolling omoplata multiple attacker and weapon defense!

When I am passing the Guard of someone with long legs in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. I typically begin to force Half Guard.

By doing this I am able to get closer and make it harder to their leg length.

In this video I show my strategy against long legged BJJ practitioners.

I also touch on the idea of how to deal with Knee Shields and Spider Lasso grips by avoiding tension.

Along with the positional elements I use to force and pass Half Guard in Brazilian Jiujitsu. I also talk about strong head positioning.

As I’ve shared before. Head positioning is often overlooked in BJJ, which is unfortunate, because it’s incredibly powerful.

Locking someones head position makes it very difficult for them to defend your offensive weapons.

This video is more of a strategy or concept video rather than a hard technique video.

It’s just a few ideas for your to Chew On with your BJJ training or competitions.

Get it. . . Chew On?

Anyways, I hope you enjoyed the video!

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.
