Can You Get “Ridiculously” Strong For BJJ Without Lifting Weights? (Episode 347)
On this episode, Chewy and Eugene discuss a recent article that claims that you can get “ridiculously" strong by just doing bodyweight exercises. We chat about the article in depth and where we agree and disagree with the writer’s arguments.
We also discuss why some grapplers a resistant to lifting weights, how to properly use isometric exercises to strengthen your body, our thoughts on “Functional Exercises,” if incorporating more wrestling into your training will increase strength, if you will get stronger by training with heavier training partners, whether there is any benefit to doing bodyweight exercises, if drilling can improve “functional strength” for BJJ, if increased flexibility and mobility will improve strength, whether cardiovascular conditioning improves strength, and out overall thoughts on this article.

Great talk!!
The amount of times Leah murdered me from White to Blue belt I cannot count. Excellent human.
What are good exercises for mobility/flexibility below the knee?
@@b4dmaash what specifically is limited?
Federer and Woods are not that different. Both started playing a relatively niche sport at an extremely young age (3 or younger for Federer and from the crib for Woods) and all the way to adulthood. Yes like all boys from Europe who grew up in the 80s and 90s, Federer would have also played soccer. That's not some stroke diversification luck, it just means he was not a recluse so he played soccer like every other kid.
I’ve heard Danaher will start a class by saying something like, “you’ll never take a man’s back if you can’t see the top of his head”, and then sit down. He’s very ecological.
It sounds like you’re saying what Bruce Lee had said. Don’t fear the man that practiced a 1000 kicks one time, but rather the man that has practiced 1 kick a thousand times. That’s technical.
As I’m nearing 40 with two fxxked shoulders the gi is much more my style …no gi is fun but my athleticism is starting to slow down lol
Coach Haueter is a bjj/grappling treasure. Thanks Chewy, for the excellent podcast.
Waldemar Santana fought Helio Gracie , Kimura , Ivan Gomes and Carlson Gracie but is rarely mentioned outside of his matches with Helio and Carlson
Another great podcast! Thanks!
40:16 to 41:50 such a good point here. This should be a short on youtube and tiktok!
Great podcast, as usual. Thanks for this, guys!
Solid guy!
If you look at the pound for pound rankings it’s almost all American and Brazilians. Not enough countries participate in this specific form of grappling.
Judo's already an Olympic sport, and BJJ is still close enough that it doesn't make sense for both of them to be in it. Hell, they even thought Judo was too close to wrestling, playing a large role in the loss of newaza skills in a lot of American Judo, because the Olympics wanted more distinction between the two
31:52 i live in nc and when i started 15 years ago my coach juat got his purple belt so yea its massive now lmao
No I was here first
I’m the first one today :)
This was awesome man. I think we, as BJJ competitors, can learn a lot from high level wrestling training tactics. Like you say in the interview, they’ve had more time and money put into figuring out the best way to win. Awesome video thank you for continuing to make these.
2 minutes in and I know I'm in for a good podcast
Chewy, I've been watching quite a few of your videos this year, and I didn't even know you had a podcast until I saw this one come up in my rec's! I went back and listened to your other one with Pete from about a year ago; I'm a big fan of Origin, and it's always great to listen to him. I'll be checking out more of your episodes.
Man i pay $15 for my jeans $4 a shirt and $20-40 for shoes...definitely gonna be a hard sale to get me to switch...i know thats kinda shitty to say but how are people paying $100 for 1 pair of jeans
22:48 - good to see Chewy following and help translate and make the ideas more accessible!
Chewy, I actually read a very good book that explained the Radium Girls very well. It was called “The Poisoners Handbook” and it was about the advancements made in forensic toxicology during Prohibition Era New York. I would highly recommend it as it’s a great read, extremely well researched, and did a thing I like with books where it blended the real stories with scientific information seamlessly.
Radium girls is what he was referencing at the end if anyone's interested
man I have 336 pods to catch up on 😭😭😭
Underrated podcast
This is my favourite BJJ podcast by far. I wish more people find this hidden gem and make as a habit to listen to it while driving or just relaxing. Keep up the good work guys!
Fascinating - once he spoke of the imbalance in skill and constraint it it clicked - cause if you constrain one person of the same skill level you limit skill acquisition maybe - fascinating However with beginners such as myself do you show at least how a mount could be controlled
a spaz purple belt just broke his own leg a few months ago but apparently he didnt learn anything , the gym also lacks a culture of accountability, coach just keeps saying how ''its a dangerous sports bla bla bla''. maybe it is a dangerous sport but being a super competitve crazy spaz doesnt help at all
I have a funny little story about the skin thing. Once I was making crem brûlée and accidentally touched the tip of the torch to my forearm reaching for something, and it was a round little burn mark on my arm. I went to class, and professor nearly jumped out of his skin, pointed at my arm, and said “WHAT THE F IS THAT!?” I was like, oh, I burnt myself making desserts and he said I nearly gave him a heart attack lol.
I’ve gotten choked out by Sean he’s the real deal 😂
Not one of your students directly, but in the last 6 months of listening to this podcast, I have learned a massive amount. Thank you both for your hard work! Love being one of the people! Oss! 🤙
Hi there. Just tried to buy the product, but unfortunately it doesn’t deliver to Canada :( If possível, ask them if they are planning on delivering here in the future. thanks!
Thanks so much for the support! Can you send us a message on Instagram or send your info to thechewjitsupodcast@gmail.com and I can put you in contact with the Grapple Science team!

I like when pods I listen to start to run ads because it means they’re getting recognition and can continue running. Love the pod and hope you guys keep doing what you’re doing 🙌
That Cameron Brock guy sounds like a tool. Great Podcast as always!
These are the kind of topics I love hearing on the podcast. Having multiple clicks and whistles that I deal with constantly, I love learning different methods of rehabbing and warming my body up, before I get to training. 🤙
I think lazy is code for "I don't actually enjoy rolling". If you really like something, being lazy won't stop you. You are lazy for things you don't really want to do.
100%
Listening to this podcast has helped my mental game so much. Thank you so much for what you guys do. Oss! 🤙
Such a great conversation with the 3 of you. BMac is a big part of even getting me to Louisville/ DCMMA.
BMac is awesome, I learned a ton from his vids on youtube, I try and hit triangles as smooth as he does
Correction,12 minutes of ads in a 50 min pod,first and last time listening to this,give a wide birth.
@@euanewen5555 we put the ads in the beginning and end so that you can literally skip through them and they don’t interrupt the flow of the conversation.
First 10 minutes just chilling their patreon & CBD,skip
I never liked Gabby before, but after CJI I found her to be really cool. She was a great sport and made things really fun.
CJI was epic 👍hopefully they can do it again next year
I personally enjoyed ADCC more, but it was a great weekend for grappling. I think the wrestling community, mma community, and overall combat sports tuned in to watch and enjoyed it for the most part. Trolls on both sides are always going to troll like always, but this was a great weekend for the sport and we saw so many great fights, let's just all see celebrate and support both shows
Thanks big dawg 😤😎🤗
Great advice Chewy 👍training is learning no one wins a medal 🏅 in training. If you want to win go COMPETE AND PROVE YOURSELF THERE 💯don’t be crazy in training and stop injuring others.
