BJJ sport training is one of the only sports I’ve ever seen where there is very little methodology of how hard to train.
Most sports combine some mixture of hard and lighter elements of training to round things out.
But Brazilian Jiu-jitsu often doesn’t. So practitioners often fall into this misconception that the only way to get better in BJJ is to GO HARD all the time.
In today’s video I answer a question from our friend who is asking about how to roll with weaker smaller people during BJJ training.
He says this not because he wants to adjust to them, but because he implies that he isn’t going to improve if he rolls wit them.
I try to debunk this myth by sharing how I rolled with mostly White and Blue Belts for some of my early Black Belt competitions.
Very similar to weaker people in the gym. I could crush them if I wanted. But I roll with them very deliberately to improve and prepare myself for Black belt matches.
If you’re in a similar situation in BJJ. I hope this video encourages you to think a little differently about how you can train with smaller, weaker or less skill BJJ training partners.
Talk to you next time!

This Brabo Choke is a fantastic option from the Full Guard in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu.
The Brabo Grip itself is excellent for posture and Full Guard control. And it leads to numerous sweeps and submissions.
I often show the Brabo grip early on to my White Belts because it’s strength can often be helpful for a newcomer to BJJ who wouldn’t mind a little added control.
In this video I’m not going off a viewer request. Instead, I wanted to simply show you a nice Brazilian Jiujitsu technique that might be useful for your game.
As you’ll see in the video. I show the basics of how to open up the Gi to achieve the grip. Then discuss how to setup the choke or use it for positional dominance.
I hope that the technique helps you with your Full Guard submission game in BJJ.

Have you ever not received credit for something when you felt like you should have? Perhaps you helped someone but then never received any recognition.
That’s what’s going on in today’s Brazilian Jiu-jitsu video.

Our friend Jay who is a 4 stripe Blue Belt has taken upon himself to help out one of the White Belts in his gym with a Baseball Choke technique he’s developed.
And it worked! The BJJ White Belt took the technique and has been able to hit it several times in tournaments and in training. So much so, that this White Belt has become synonymous with this choke.
The only problem is that he has never given Jay any credit for the help.
Jay knows that he shouldn’t feel upset about this. But he says he’s found that it frustrates him.
In this video I draw some parallels to how I felt as a young Brazilian Jiujitsu coach and Jay’s situation.
And I talk about not giving people help in any situation on a conditional basis if you’re really trying to help them.
I also discuss how to turn this negative situation on the mats into a positive by channeling the negative energy into a positive by teaching more people.
But the biggest idea I try to share in this video is that if you take on the role of a teacher or coach in Brazilian Jiujitsu. You need to take joy out of teaching someone. Not getting recognition for it. Finding joy in someone else’s success.

I recently got a question from a BJJ practitioner who is at a new gym and is struggling with her ranking.
She says that she’s a 3 stripe White Belt. But her BJJ training has been broken up a bit. And she also says that this particular Brazilian Jiu-jitsu gym is very tough.
Her question is how to deal with the feeling of false advertising when she’s in the gym with her belt.
She has 3 stripes on her White Belt but she doesn’t feel like a 3 stripe BJJ White Belt.
In this video, I talk about a situation where I felt very similar as a Brown Belt.
I had gone down to train at a really tough gym and by the end of the 1st night I felt like I was being an imposter.
But I was able to get over the mental block and make the most of my time by taking on the mindset I did when I was a fresh new BJJ White Belt myself.
I hope this video is useful for you if you’re in a situation like this. Where you go to a Brazilian Jiujitsu gym and feel like you don’t measure up.
