Today’s video is a short Q&A video from Origin’s BJJ Immersion Camp in Maine. During the sessions this week I got a chance to speak with hundreds of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu practitioners who watch the videos, listen to the podcasts and so on. If you’re one of them, it was cool meeting you!

A couple of blue belts came up to me asking questions about their grips burning out and getting tunnel vision during their rolling. After listening to their situation, I gave them some simple advice. Something that helped me with my BJJ.

Now the advice is very simple and can be applied by anyone from white belt to black belt. But it doesn’t make it easy! Like anything else in BJJ, you have to put things into action with practice.

So, if you struggle with your grips burning out during BJJ competitions and rolling, then I hope the video helps.

Today’s video question comes from a Brown Belt who’s hitting a sticky point in his game. To the point where he’s getting beaten by all the lower belts and he feels like he’s doing worse than ever.

We’ve all been there at some point.

One of the times in my BJJ when I felt like this was when I was training at a super tough gym as a Brown Belt. I was visiting and wanted to get some tough training. I got exactly what I wanted, but it was tough! I remember even the blue belts were killing me by the end of it.

So in the video I share some details about what happened and I also share some ideas on how I handle these things.

Also, if you want to get the ebook mentioned in the video, just use the link below.

Want to improve your timing with your BJJ techniques? Everyone does, right? In this video I’m going to share a simple idea you need to look for, or rather feel for, during your rolling and drilling that will help you improve your timing.

I came across this idea of physical cues when I was a Brown Belt in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. I started noticing that many techniques have this “feeling” of when it’s time to go, and the more I zeroed in on that feeling the better my timing got.

In the video I’ll share the idea with you and I’ll share a few techniques and the physical cues. My encouragement to you after watching is to find the physical cues of your techniques in your BJJ training.

Thanks for watching.

Recently I was asked what it means to survive as a White Belt in BJJ. The question comes from a new White Belt who hears “you need to survive” all the time in his Brazilian Jiu-jitsu classes.

So I answer the question and talk about the idea of surviving during practice with skill and technique but also surviving through the rough part of learning a new skill.

Learning a new skill is tough, it’s never easy, and I explain 1 of the mental road blocks that happens with people and how to work through it.

Hope the ideas in the video are helpful!

Today’s question from a Blue Belt who’s competed, and done well, in several tournaments and is now gearing up to do his very first IBJJF competition. His question is whether or not the IBJJF competition is tougher than other Brazilian Jiu-jitsu competitions.

In the video I’ll share some ideas on the IBJJF, why you shouldn’t get spooked about any competition and also how 1 of my BJJ students struggled in a local tournament and later on went and won the Pan Ams in his weight class and age division.

So, if you’re getting ready for your 1st IBJJF competition then I hope the video is useful!

There is a danger to achieving your goals in BJJ or any endeavor you find yourself in. And that’s what we’re going to focus on for today’s video.

The question asker is Nina who says she’s in a situation where she’s accomplished several goals she had and now she’s in a situation where she lacks the same motivation and drive she used to have.

Her question to me is how can she get that drive back in her life and Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training. So in this video I’ll explain the natural rhythm we all experience as we accomplish our goals and the process around that.

If you’re experiencing a loss of motivation and focus after hitting a big goal I hope this video helps!

“I want to get better in BJJ.” I get a messages like this from new White Belts all the time. But when I ask people what they mean by “better” they typically don’t have a rock solid answer. So in this video I wanted to give someone who’s newer to Brazilian Jiu-jitsu some ideas to focus on in order to get better.

The most important part is know what you’re focusing on. Most of the time when people say better they don’t define what they actually mean. So that’s probably the most important part. If you’re going to strive to get better you need to know what you mean.

But if you’re a newer White Belt I hope the video is useful.

In this video I talk about the idea of aggression in BJJ and how it translates off the mat as well. The video was inspired by numerous questions from viewers who say that they either 1. Have too much aggression or 2. Have too little aggression. Most of them speak in the context of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu but also comment on how this has translated over to their life off the mat.

Whether you’re too aggressive or not enough I believe Brazilian Jiujitsu training, as well as other combat sports, offers people a great chance to channel that warrior like energy. They can learn to release the pressure which many people say Jiu-jitsu does. But they can also learn to grow their ability to be firm and forceful should the situation call for it.

This ability to gain control over our mindset is one of the most useful parts of Bjj training.

If you’d like to read the blog article that I wrote which inspired this video use the link below.
Here’s the blog article: https://www.chewjitsu.net/2019/12/aggression-in-bjj-too-much-too-little/

Hope you enjoyed the video and if you have any thoughts on aggression in relation to your training or combat sports leave a comment.

Thanks for watching the video.

Here is a short highlight video from the recent IBJJF Nashville Open where I won my Super Heavy Division and the Open Weight at Master 1 Black Belt. During these BJJ matches you’ll see me battling mostly with guard passing. I did have one takedown battle but the rest were fights in the passing positions.

If you watch my videos or have purchased my grip fighting series you’ll notice a lot of the stuff I teach and preach being used in the competition.

During the tournament I was only able to snag 1 submission. The rest of the competitors stopped my attempts so I won on points.

Each one of my opponents was tough in his own way and I’m happy I was able to come out on top and snag the wins for myself, my Derby City MMA team and the Team Shawn Hammonds Association.

I want to end this message with this. Much respect to all of the other Black Belts I competed against as they’re gym owners or instructors at gyms. It takes a lot of guts to get out and compete when you have eyes on you like that. So I have mad respect for all of them.

Hope you guys enjoy the video! Thanks for watching.
