What’s The Difference Between Legit Submissions & Sloppy Cranks in BJJ

Gary Berger — Tue, 29 Jul 2025 18:35:42 +0000

Today, we have a question from Patrick, who has heard me discuss sloppy submissions versus controlled submissions, legitimate versus non-legitimate submissions, in some of my other videos.

He’s a White Belt in BJJ and wants to know what the actual difference is between those. This way he can focus on legit submissions and improve his skill and avoid hurting his training partners.

Smart fella!

So in this video I share some ideas about the subject.

Hopefully, you find this video helpful.

Thanks for watching.

Brown Belt Bully Rips a Submission on White Belt

Gary Berger — Thu, 02 Jan 2025 20:03:37 +0000

Today, we have an anonymous question from a viewer who was reportedly bullied by a BJJ Brown Belt.

The viewer shares a story about rolling during class, where the group circles around a set of grapplers.

Bob, a White Belt who’s been training for 6 months, gets put in a wrist lock and taps. Despite Bob tapping, the Brown Belt insists on continuing the roll and forces Bob into another round.

During this second round, the Brown Belt slams Bob’s wrist, causing him excruciating pain. Bob screams to stop the roll, but it continues.

Afterward, Bob talks to a Blue Belt, who confirms that the Brown Belt’s behavior wasn’t normal and that he’s known to be mean. Bob now wonders if he should leave the gym or if there’s a way to avoid rolling with this Brown Belt in the future.

In this video, I’ll share a similar experience and offer advice to Bob about how to handle this situation.

I hope you find this video helpful.

Thanks for watching!
