Getting smashed in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu is important! As a White Belt part of your beginning in BJJ is learning just how vulnerable you are. And when you get smashed and submitted by a higher level belt during rolling it makes you aware of the reality of the martial art.
In this video we have a newer BJJ White Belt who says he has submitted a Black Belt. He feels as though the Black Belt is actually using the full extent of their skill and that he is getting a legitimate tap on him.
His questions is whether or not he should lighten up on this Black Belt during training or keep going.
In this video, I share how I think the Black Belt is letting the White Belt work. I’m nice about it. And because I’m not there I don’t really know. But based on my almost 20 years of Brazilian Jiujitsu I have a good hunch what’s going on.
Many times experienced practitioners know the difficult road that lays ahead for the newcomer to Jiujitsu and so they try to ease the person into it slowly. Playing down significantly in their skill and ability.
In this video I describe a story from my gym to put the situation into context so that it can hopefully be helpful to our friend.
Thanks for watching the video.

Have you ever felt physically run down but then end up having one of the best BJJ training sessions you can remember?
Well in this video I share how not feeling your best can be a good thing for your rolling in BJJ. This comes from a questions from our friend who was coming back after an illness and said that he rolled really well by being focused on being defensive since his body was tired from the sickness.
In the video I share a story from when I was a Brown Belt rolling with a Black Belt training partner. And in the story I was in a very similar situation. I wasn’t feeling too well but I was preparing for a competition so I went to the gym to train.
During the Brazilian Jiujitsu training that day I had to focus on being defensive at first because I didn’t have the energy I normally did.
What was a amazing was that by being more relaxed and less aggressive during the roll I performed better. This was a bit of a shock to me but I talk more about it in the video.
Hope you guys enjoy the video. Thanks for watching.

In this No Gi Rolling session from one of our Friday BJJ classes.I roll with a Purple Belt, White Belts and a Blue Belt.
During the rolling I was working on a few things. You’ll see some back takes in the works including a takedown that leads right into the Back Mount.
While rolling with the tall lanky White Belt I was working in certain positions with him. One of which was inside of his guard and getting him used to shooting up triangle chokes. If you watch the roll you’ll see me reach back inside the full guard. This is a basic mistake that i wanted him to take advantage of.
If you’ve watched any of my recent rolling videos then you’ll see some common techniques being used. This is not by accident. I’m purposely trying to improve certain technique, positions and aspects of my BJJ game.
I hope you enjoy the video and find something useful from it.
If you have any questions let me know.

In this BJJ rolling video video at our gym Derby City MMA you’ll see a good mixture of takedowns, guard passing and I almost got my back taken during one of my rolls by one of my purple belts.
During the BJJ rolling session I started off light with one of my purple belts who is nursing a rib injury. From there we picked up the intensity.
My second roll was with one of my BJJ purple belts who is also a MMA fighter and former wrestler. After a solid takedown he came after my back and almost had it!
After I managed to get out of the position I got on top and went for my own attacks. A lot of times when I roll with my guys I have to turn it up a little bit because they are getting good enough to give me a lot of trouble.
My last roll was with one of my other purple belts who is the kind of guy in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu that is 200+lbs and somehow manages to bend and fold in half. During our roll we had some great scrambles. 1 where he caught me in a leg attack and another where I was able to get around to the back.
Hope you enjoyed the rolling video.

Do you work on something specific during your BJJ rolling? In this video from one of our Friday morning classes I was specifically working Half Guard sweeps and a slick Back Take from Honeyhole.
These techniques were specific to my current goals in Brazilian Jiujitsu.
If you want to stop BJJ training plateaus, I can’t encourage you enough to try and focus on something specific from time to time during your training.
Having specific techniques to work on really helps you sharpen your skills in a particular area.
