ADULT / BLACK-BELT / MALE / HEAVY – FINAL
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:
Thanks for watching!

Today I’m answering a question from Eric, a viewer, who is getting to the Von Flue Choke in BJJ but is struggling to finish the submission.
He says he has the position, he’s squeezing really tight, but for whatever reason he cannot finish it, hence why he sends me the message.
The Von Flue Choke is a sneaky counter to the Guillotine and Is a great technique to learn if you train Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, or even MMA.
The problem Eric is having with this technique is pretty normal though, so I’ll attempt to show you a different way to finish the submission without using so much muscle.
Instead, we will focus on utilizing body weight and positioning to get a proper finish.
Hopefully you found this video helpful, especially if you were having a similar problem finishing the choke.

ADULT / BLACK-BELT / MALE / OPEN-CLASS – QUARTER-FINAL
ADULT / BLACK-BELT / MALE / LIGHT – SEMI-FINAL
Today’s video is going to feature Austin (IG: @badboymedicine) again!
Instead of focusing on takedowns for Jiu-Jitsu, this time we’re going to focus on what to do once we actually get on the ground, specifically with a focus on submissions once we get to the Half Guard position in BJJ or MMA.
We will explore a sequence from half guard in order to pass, pin, and submit your opponent off their back, with a specific focus on No-Gi grappling (of course most of this can be modified for the Gi too.)
Austin, a Judoka, asked specifically for submission sequences that come after a pin, so that’s what the focus on this video is going to cover.
We will also cover getting to mount, controlling the mount position, and submitting from there. This will include me teaching Austin some nuances such as passing from quarter mount, forcing my opponents to post on my knee to give up their arm, securing mount, and more.
It’s always fun seeing grapplers from different arts trying BJJ, so I hope you guys enjoyed this video as much as I did.
Hopefully, if you were struggling with the positions in this video, then you also found some useful tips that’ll help your game out too.
Thanks for watching!

What’s up guys, today we’ve got a question from a guy named Brian who has this idea that I think a lot of us in the martial arts world tend to hold.
Brian is getting ready to compete as a Blue Belt and he’s nervous.
He said he competed a little bit as a BJJ White Belt but didn’t feel great doing it.
He says he feels pretty dang good when he’s practicing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in the gym, but when he gets out on the competition mats, the nerves take over.
Because of this, he feels like he always underperforms.
He says he’d like to get rid of the fear and asked if I had any tips to help out with that.
In this video I’ll try to share something with Brian that most fighters/grapplers come to terms with as far as competition goes, that actually SKYROCKETS your ability to compete, and it might surprise you.
Hopefully if you’re struggling with competition anxiety, then you found the ideas in this video helpful.

What’s up guys!
My buddy Austin (AKA @Badboymedicine on Instagram) was in town doing a seminar for my gym showing some Judo that you can use in No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu.
He wanted me to show him how I use that Arm Drag Inside trip (also known as the Kouchi Gake in Judo) and I wanted him to show how he set ups the Kouchi Gari as a foot trip.
So, that’s what we did.
This is a fun Takedown for Jiu-Jitsu video because although many takedowns from Wrestling and Judo are similar, there tend to be minor differences in details that, for whatever reason, were adapted for each particular sport.
Judo is often seen as a great takedown base in the Gi, but as Austin often displays on his Instagram, it can also be extremely effective in No-Gi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu situations too.
Hopefully you guys found this video helpful and learned a thing or two from it.
Once again you can find Austin on Instagram at @Badboymedicine for more content.
Thanks for watching!

ADULT / BLACK-BELT / MALE / FEATHER – FINAL
Today’s video is a clip from a recent episode of the Chewjitsu podcast with one of my Black Belt students Jeff.
In the clip he shares a story about how I denied him a Black Belt promotion that sent him on his way to reinventing his Jiu-jitsu game.
Almost a year later he competed at a Brazilian Jiu-jitsu competition and played a completely different game than he normally used to.
I also share why he was able to do this without having to train 6-7x a week.

ADULT / BLACK-BELT / FEMALE / OPEN-CLASS – FINAL
Today I’ve got a question from a White Belt named Andy who has been hearing that the Keylock is not an effective submission for Jiu-Jitsu, especially at the higher belts.
So, he was wondering if the Keylock, or sometimes called the Americana, is even worth doing and if I could give him a couple of tips to improve his catching & finishing rate, cause he’s having trouble hitting it in his Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Gym.
This submission was actually one of my favorite submissions as a BJJ White Belt and as I got more experience it became something more like a sneaky threat or a set up for other submissions or positions.
Regardless it’s still a very useful tool and I’ll give you guys 3 tips to make you key lock stronger, both as a White Belt or an experienced Jiu-Jitsu practitioner.
Hopefully if you were struggling to finish this submission or just found Jiu-Jitsu, then you found this helpful.
Thanks for watching!
