Today’s video is an idea that came from questions I received from both BJJ White Belts and higher belts who are rolling with brand new White Belts in their gym.

Basically, the White Belts are injuring people on accident or being super spazzy and feeling bad about it.

On the flip side the higher belts are worried about getting injured with the less experienced students.

So in this video I share an idea for higher belts in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu to consider when rolling with new BJJ students. It’s an idea I learned the hard way after getting elbowed, kicked, slammed over the years. But if you take the lesson home it’ll allow you to roll with newer students to help teach them and at the same time avoid being injured.

Thanks for watching and I hope the video helps.

In today’s video I’ll be showing you guys the “Iron Squirrel” position from side control and guard passing battles in action.

It’s a simple defensive movement that’s focused on controlling the inside space of the offensive person’s body. It’s useful for avoiding submissions, setting up escapes and stopping guard passes. If you’re trying to increase your defense and survivability in BJJ, this idea is excellent.

And while the position and the way I’m doing it in this video is specific to side control bottom and similar areas. The idea behind controlling the inside space is useful from almost any position.

Hopefully you enjoy seeing the position being used in action and hopefully it gives you some ideas for training.

In today’s Chewy ramble I answer a cardio question from a young BJJ White Belt who represents a common type in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. He’s someone who was a bit of a couch potato who then decided to get into Brazilian Jiu-jitsu (after watching videos and hearing podcasts on it). So far, it’s been great!

But he says he gets exhausted whenever he rolls and wants some tips on how to improve his cardio for rolling. He says he can’t train more BJJ with his schedule. So he’s looking for cardio training he can do off that mat, that will support his training on the mat.

In the video I’ll lay out 2 simple types of exercises to incorporate off the mat to support your rolling.

Hope the video is helpful!

Today’s BJJ rolling video is from a rolling session where I was purposely trying to put myself in less than ideal situations so I could work on escaping and getting out of them. This is a really good practice for any BJJ coach or Black Belt who can in most cases avoid getting stuck in a back spot.

Oh and in case you’re curious about the shorts. These were my old fight shorts I wore as a pro back in the day.

The video starts with my rolling against one of my tough White Belts being stuck in side control and working back to guard.

The next one is against a tough Black Belt training partner. I was trying a move and he quickly passed my guard and eventually got mount (which I had to work out of). The last roll was with my Brown Belt who is super scrappy. Again, I was trying to work a particular sweep and guard retention to fend off his movements.

Hopefully you enjoy the video and got something from it.
