This weeks episode of Gym Tours features an NYC staple, Marcelo Gacia Academy. Head professor Matheus Diniz takes us on a tour of this awesome gym.
Recently the Ole Chewster has had some health issues….
With that being said, it’s forced me to take some time off the BJJ mats from hard rolling. And so with that I’ve decided to spend more time in other areas like the gym, specifically with stretching and mobility.
Lots of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioners are extremely tight, that includes me. Personally, I have struggled with flexibility my entire life. I’ve never been a flexible guy. And with years of hard training and a few surgeries. My body has some issues.
That said I’ve been correcting some of these issues with a stretching and mobility program I had created for me. In the video I’ll share some of the movements that have helped me out. The stretches and exercises today are focused on knees, hips and ankles.
If you’re struggling with a similar issue, then hopefully these ideas can be useful to you.
Just remember, I am not a doctor, nor am I giving you any medical advice. I’m just showing you what has been working for me.
Go see a professional if you are having any issues.

Today’s video is a question from a viewer named Brandon who’s been playing Butterfly Guard in his BJJ classes.
He said he’s had a lot of success with it, but he says everyone is catching on and stopping his underhooks. So in the video I show a simple way to get the underhook even if the person is resisting. It’s something I’ve used a ton and has been very effective with my Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, so I hope it is for your BJJ as well.
Thanks for watching.

Today’s question comes from a blue belt by the name of Tom who is curious about my advice on training BJJ while married.
Good question, since as us guys always joke “happy wife, happy life.”
Anyways, he’s wondering how to find the balance between taking care of his wife and training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu enough to do it at a competitive level.
Now, I don’t consider myself a marriage “Guru” or Counselor, but in this video, I’ll share how I found an important balance between my training and marriage. I’ll also share a simple exercise that I did with my wife that made my BJJ and my marriage better. So hopefully it will help you too if you’re in a similar situation.
Thanks for watching.

Rafael Mendes isn’t called the wizard for no reason!🧙🏻♂️
This clip is from the 2010 Worlds, where Mendes won his first World title in the featherweight division.
Today’s question comes from Jose who is wondering if he should keep training BJJ while going through a divorce.
He worries that he may bring some baggage from his personal life into his Brazilian Jiu-jitsu gym, that could lead to some not-so-fun interactions in training and doesn’t want to ruin his relationships at the gym as a result.
In the video I give Jose, and you guys, a story about similar situation that I went through in hopes to start a conversation & to help Jose out, even if it’s just a little helpful.
This is clearly a hard time for Jose, and I hope that he finds what he needs, gets through this whole situation, and is able to get back to his normal life as soon as possible. And if you’re experiencing a similar issue then I hope the video helps.
