    1. Drill (with a purpose)
    2. Do your homework (learn outside of mat time)
    3. Ask your training partners how they’re beating you
    4. Record your rolls
    5. Be consistent

    This is stuff I tell everyone all the time. Focus on guard passing/retention. Also, your point about watching lots of videos on the same topic. This has been invaluable for me. You find commonalities that ultimately help you understand the underlying concepts and each teacher gives you a different perspective.

    • @JordanTeachesJiujitsu
      @JordanTeachesJiujitsu  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      That's right, man 👊 Becoming good at Jiu-Jitsu is as much about actually studying it, analyzing it, as it is about just rolling. You have to have both :)

    #3 is my favorite and I just started doing this. There was this one purple belt that always swept me from butterfly and I just asked him "what do other people do to defend your butterfly guard that give you trouble?" He gave me some fantastic tips that really helped me! It was great having someone that literally coached me through beating his best guard. Now that's a fantastic gym culture!

    Thanks for the wonderful content. I would like to add, in regards to drilling. Injuries of any kind are demoralizing. I injured my shoulder 20 yrs ago and quit BJJ. It was one of the biggest mistakes of my life. Fortunately I came back 3 yrs ago and am on my way to purple belt. Now I believe injury can be a blessing in disguise to force adaptation in you BJJ game. One of my training partners hurt his back pretty badly. Almost couldn’t walk. He came to class every day took notes, and rehabilitated his back during class. He started basic guard movements, then started drilling with partners super lightly in his back control, which was not good before his back got hurt. He was a (3) striped blue for a very long time. With in the 4 months of his note taking and back rehab at the gym he is almost impossible to defend his back control and received his purple belt in June. He would have never worked on his back takes if he had not gotten injured to the level of proficiency he is at now.

    My biggest challenge in Jiujitsu has been consistency. I work a very labor intensive job so many days after work all I want to do is go home and rest for the next day. I’ll have months where I let that side of me win, but then I’ll have other months where I’m extremely disciplined in showing up regardless.
    It’s definitely a work in progress. 😅

    Great video!
    Dude, the guard passing drill is the best drill. To me, it's the "wax on, wax off" drill of jiujitsu. I tell everyone, "You cannot possibly get too good at doing this drill. Do it again."
    Our version is, top person wins by passing, bottom person wins by getting full guard or standing up. You can learn like 75% of jiujitsu this way.
    My biggest challenge is usually that I'm the last one on the mats because everyone else has used up all their energy...

  • @ericleach403
    @ericleach403 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Excellent advice! One huge thing you can do to speed up the time to black belt is to find a good school you like and stick with them from White to Black. Switching instructors will easily set you back a year or two 💥

    • @JordanTeachesJiujitsu
      @JordanTeachesJiujitsu  2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Excellent advice Sir. I'm almost 54, started training at 49, but unfortunately, due to COVID and misfortune, haven't trained for a year, but hitting the mats again now. I'm still a blue belt and have stopped myself worrying about the "What if I'd not missed so much time, would I be close to, or even purple by now...?" I'm just going to pick up where I left off and time will dictate the rest. I love the sentence, "If you're going to be anything in ten years, why not be a black belt." I'm hoping to not be too far off by my 60th birthday. Thank you again. Oss!

    This is great! I have progressed very quickly as well, getting my brown belt at 5 yrs and 5 months in. I di pretty much exactly what you are talking about. There were two other things I would add that I did that I felt helped me. 1. Have a training partner you trust very much, so you can continue training even when injured. I've had some injuries that would have otherwise sidelined me for weeks at least, but was able to come back quickly by modifying what I did and having partners I could trust. 2. Go the next step. Whenever learning and drilling a technique, my training partner and I would always eventually start going to "what would happen next" whether that be completely controlled position, or stopping them from finishing because they did something a little off and going into what you would do from there in that scenario. I feel like that helped to develop that ability to se what was going to happen before it happened. Just my 2 cents worth

    • @JordanTeachesJiujitsu
      @JordanTeachesJiujitsu  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Those are fantastic insights, Brad! Yep, having a great training partner is a huge bonus, because you can always go over stuff with them - plus, if the two of you share the same passion for BJJ (as the two of you do), then it's just a matter of time before you start progressing faster than others.
      Great job on that brown belt achievement man 🙏

    Thanks Jordan! I’m only a 1 stripe white belt, but these tips all make sense and I’ve already been doing them (other than recording, but that’s already on my radar).
    Im 43, but started playing hockey at 26 and went through all the adult learners issues - which are very similar to BJJ (and most sports/hobbys).
    I’m not perfect, but I’ve trialed and errored enough to have a refined, sustainable approach to adult learning.
    Ie, even before my first day on the mat I did some homework, and that hasn’t stopped. Learning hockey basically on my own forced discipline in off-ice training. I now carry that over to BJJ. So my black belt in beer league hockey is carrying over! lol
    So far so good!

    My school does a similar pass/sweep round, except for us it's 2-min on top, and then 2-min on bottom. The next round is then started from the day's position, but is a live roll, and again is 2-min on top and 2-min on bottom. Then we do 5-min live rolls from the feet. If someone is new and/or nursing an injury, they often just continue either the pass/sweep or live roll from guard rounds instead.

    • @slayerbot1394
      @slayerbot1394 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      This happened to me 2 weeks in. Then i realized, just work backwards.
      So i started asking my partners to start in side or mount. And all i tried doing was getting my guard back, which was always either quarter or half guard. I did this for a while until i got comfortable with getting to quarter or half guard from being mounted.
      Then started learning sweeps from bottom half guard. I learned different sweeps depending on the angle of my partner.
      From here, whenever someone was trying to pass my guard, i would always force half guard and work from there. If they passed, id get quarter or half, sweep, then work an offense. Ive also got short legs so this worked from me

    "... Rather than ten seconds in your guard, and the rest just trying to survive"
    -this is probably the toughest challenge faced by beginners, and it certainly was the same for me. It's not just the taxing physicality of defending from bottom side control, it's psychologically challenging to know you're just getting dominated round after round.

    • @SethKBaldwin
      @SethKBaldwin 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Positional sparring is super useful from every position. Working on guard is great for white belts tired of getting smashed. No one seems to enjoy submission defense and guard recovery from bad positions but that's what makes your game resilient.

    Would you ever consider putting subtitles on some of your vids? I tend to register things a bit better when I’m reading and watching, the CC option on TH-cam tends to go too fast & is a bit jumbled. Not sure if you’ve had the request before.
    Thanks for your vids as always. Love the podcast as well.

    Bro, you are literally Build different. I don't know if even one percent of your viewers can do this, whatever you say - and we doing everything being said. :) I'm new at this, but I can deadlift around 200kg and yesterday I was tapped by a 15 year old weighing around 35 kilos less than me. Bjj is just something else. I'll be happy if I ever get to a purple belt, much less a black one in 7 years. :D

    The biggest challenge for me so far was to wear flip flops all the way from locker room to the gym mats. Remembering the days of the week when the club secretary is there so that I could pay the subscription on time. Also, when we end class there are high fives involved and its hard to get all of those to be on spot. All jokes aside, it's sometimes hard to put yourself out there. When there are a lot of beginners it's easier, but if not, it may seem like a tight cult. I'd advise all the other white belts to be gentle and polite and higher belts will appreciate rolling with you and giving you advice. Be smart, tap on time, ask questions and have fun. It's really not that serious as some may want to present it.

    I’d say my challenges are: dedicating time on the mat, I’m really only able to go twice a week before I start neglecting other obligations and starting at the age of 35 with a scarred over body from years of sports and bad back genetics. I do a lot of conditioning to mitigate my physical limitations and absolutely love the sport and community. I do watch your videos almost every day and lean a ton from you.

    Hey, Jordan. Of all your videos, my favorite one is where you are sweeping your students one after the other. I get the "concept" of getting your hips under the opponent to make them lighter, but I am having trouble putting it into practice. Can you please make some videos on sweeps and, most notably, how to position your body and grips to be able to get your hips under the opponents'?

    2. when I learn a new move, I find it hard to integrate it into the other moves I learned. I'm missing the big picture of BJJ.
    3. Im scared of injury. How to prevent them? What are the most common causes?

    I binge your vids and watch them two times over. I’m a sandbagging white belt with no stripes but imo I feel like I’m a 2 stripe bc I simply don’t want to test to earn stripe I’m coming for that pan championship next year. But anyway I’m a 64kg bjj’er and play a lot of guard but if I can constantly work on my passing I’ll be the best bjj’er ever. I’ve only done 1 competition and got silver. But I see a HIGH ceiling for myself! THA K YOU JORDAN you’ve help so much!!
