ADULT / BLACK-BELT / MALE / HEAVY – FINAL

Today’s video is going to be a little bit longer, but it’ll be worth it if you’re struggling with your Guard Retention.

A message came in from a viewer named Collin who says his guard retention sucks, it gets shredded, and he wants some tips to get better at this area of his BJJ.

With that being said, as a guy who came to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu from Wrestling, I’ll give you a couple reason my guard retention sucked at first and then give you some of the solutions I’ve found in my Jiu-Jitsu journey.

I’ll give you 8 different tips in this video, in no order of importance.

Hopefully, if you’re struggling with your guard retention like Collin, then you found this video helpful.

Thanks for watching.

What’s up guys,

Today’s video is going to be about the upcoming Chewjitsu Opens & Seminars.

Recently we had our first tournament, with 300+ competitors, here in my hometown of Louisville, Kentucky.

Unlike most Jiu-Jitsu competitions, the Chewjitsu Open is a round robin formatted tournament with Madison Bracketing (Explained more in the video).

What I wanted to do with this Jiu-Jitsu competition was to make it very competitor friendly. The focus is to help up and coming competitors (or even experienced competitors) get more experience.

If you want to compete in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, especially at any higher level, the more experience you force yourself to get, the better.

In wrestling we were able to compete weekly and that’s the reason Wrestlers tend to do super well in most Jiu-Jitsu competitions.

The worst part of trying to get comp reps in Jiu-Jitsu, is that losing means you’re done.

There is no back-side or consolation bracket like there is in Wrestling. You could spend $1000 in fees with travel, hotel, registration, etc., go 0-1 and leave with nothing but a sour taste in your mouth.

That’s why we started these tournaments.

If you’re interested in signing up for one these tournaments you can check out the link below. You’ll also see the schedule and locations for each Tournament & Seminar:

Today I’m going to share with you one of the most common traditions we have in BJJ that will make you absolutely TERRIBLE at takedowns! (rolling with bigger partners on the feet)

No, kidding…

The reason I bring this up is because I got a question from a young, competitive, Blue Belt named Justin.

He says that he’s won a ton of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu tournaments by pulling guard and he’s loving BJJ. However, now he wants to start adding some takedowns to his game in order to be a bit more well-rounded.

The issue is this…

Most of the guys at his gym are much bigger, therefore he’s stuck trying to wrestle the big guys which is obviously problematic (risk of injury/unrealistic looks compared to competition/etc…)

As a result, he’s starting to develop a certain level of fear of takedowns.

In the end he asked me “how can I get over my fear of takedowns?”

In this video I’ll tackle the process of developing confidence in your takedowns for Jiu-Jitsu.

I’ll also talk about the importance of training in your own weight class, especially when doing takedowns, in order to stay as safe as possible and build some confidence with your techniques.

Lastly, I’ll address the way takedown rounds are often done in Wrestling and Judo and why I think BJJ could focus more on this philosophy when rolling on the feet.

Hopefully you found this video helpful.

Thanks for watching!

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

I got a question asking “Moved to a new city and can’t develop my BJJ routine, how do I get back in the groove?”

This is something that I had to deal with early in my start in BJJ. Here’s what happened:

After about 2 years of training at my current gym, I found out that my gym was closing. My friend/training partner (Adam) and I weren’t exactly sure what to do next. We really didn’t know if we would keep training. There was definitely a period of uncertainty. I had been off the mats for a couple of weeks and didn’t really know if I wanted to train anywhere else.

We found Derby City MMA (my current gym) and went to try it out together. The gym environment and training was awesome, and it’s the current gym we train at to this day.

If we didn’t make time to seek out a new gym and good thing we were in it together and still wanted to train, we were able to find the right fit to keep training BJJ!

So with that said, I wanted to share a few ideas that might help you get back in the flow of things if you’re feeling stuck or can’t get back in the BJJ groove
