I love the hierarchical concept of survive/defend, escape, pass, control, submit. I can't always get to the end but this idea really keeps me going in the right direction.
I have a 5 pound puppy who I practice techniques with. She's earned the nickname the "Iron Squirrel" due to the quickness with which she rolls on her side.....and expects belly rubs.
That's awesome. I have a few huskies. All are sweethearts, but my largest husky is about 60 pounds and 5'4 when she stands up. She is a natural boxer. She has some mean jabs, but I taught her how to latch the forearm and pounce on the hip, then pull down in order to take down bad guys. She's only ever done it to me when playing or training, and is good with strangers. Just don't break in my house if I'm in bed. ...Or if I'm awake, preferably. I'm not trying to catch a case.
Decided to give it a go today. Survived the whole round and eventually got out of mount from someone who usually keeps me pinned eventually gets the Americana. Thanks coach
Thank you for really explaining the theory. I'm a 50 year old white belt and have some great fear from panic. I need to learn to harness this fear. The Brown belt working with me told me similar things as you're saying here too.
Thanks chewy! I will do the challenge! By the way , I missed you ; I mean I follow you and you were at my gym in garden grove , California! I train under professor Alex D’Hue in garden grove Gracie Barra! I was like no way , chewy was here ! Anyway I will do the challenge and practice my frames Good video Gary DePerio
I love your videos man. I wish I lived near your gym so I could go over there and train. Maybe one day it'll be possible. In the meantime I'll keep enjoying your videos.
Hey Chewy. I've got a Bob question for you. I've started doing BJJ in May and loved every training despite the fact it was very demanding and humbling. I'm in my 30s, so it's not that easy. Two months ago I've suffered my first injury, tore a ligament in my ankle. I was out of training for 6 weeks. The first training I'm back I broke my arm on the mat really badly. I had surgery 2weeks ago and I have huge metal plate attached to my bone plus my nerve got stunned and I don't have full control of my arm. So, yeah I'm devastated. I have a long recovery time ahead and hope to recover my nerve damage. I still am thinking of going back to training after some gym work and further lab tests, however, I don't know if I should. It's a bit burdening on my girlfriend and also it's an inconvenience at work as I have to work slower with one hand. How do you deal with that? Did you have someone that got severely injured on the mats? After my first injury, I was scared to go and train, now I would be terrified. Thanks and keep up the great channel.
It's one of my frustrations with the "by submersion" method of learning I'm in now. Most of the techniques and counters we learn and drill before rolling are fairly advanced, at the same time I encouraged to just work on defense and basics while rolling. Any offensive success I have usually comes from the deeper well of my wrestling background. I'm happy when it works, but I'll be much more proud when some of the jiu-jitsu I'm learning shows up and works in a roll.
I’ve been doing this same type of thing were I’m not looking to escape but just try to survive off my back from most of the time sidecontrol and after 2 weeks of doing this I was able to even apply this to submission attempts because of course I got put in them a lot cus of doing this and now I can survive arm triangle chokes (most of the time) *a good offense is a good defence*
great video I´m gonna think about it more from today. I kind of know that I should never show my arms and it helps me survive much longer. I don´t try to escape so hard I just wait for the opponent to lose a balance a little bit and then I shoot it. :-)
If I'm on bottom side I'm constantly looking for invert triangle, darce, and recently been trying the fly trap but haven't been able to successfully hit it.
You can frustrate some of the more aggressive rollers with this emphasis on framing and position. When they get impatient is when they make mistakes you can use against them.
I took my first lesson 2 days ago. My knees are busted and my toes are scratched up from the mat. I also got swept by a 1m60 lady while being a 1m90 110kg beefy gymlad. Thats the good motivation to get better tho 😂
chew i got a question. just about every video i see where someone has another in closed guard their legs are sorta positioned right on top of the hips and legs. people jump me all the time at my gym about my legs needing to be as high as possible. as close to the armpits as possible. yet when i watch them roll they do the opposite. whats the deal?
Depends on the type of guard and attacks you're going to use. Going up high on the armpit is often getting into what we call "high guard" territory. Maybe I'll use this for a video in the future.
Everytime I get mounted, i always go for half guard escape, been working so far. With side control, i need to really work on not getting flattened by the bigger guys
I'm trying to listen to you but your buddy is looking at me funny
Just look back at him and don't blink. Pause if you need to take a break, he won't know.
A test in concentration. ;)
He doesn't blink wtf lol 😂
Mean muggin'
Holy $h¡+ this whole thread is comedy gold... love you guys.

Excellent. Glad you took the challenge to test your ability to survive.
Right now if I survive to the bell without getting subbed I feel like king of the world. Everything else is icing.

Thank you for the tips Chewy, started my BJJ journey a little over three weeks ago. Loving the process!
Kien Tran you will find this really helpfull it took me one year to discover this. It make everything way easier
Thanks brother. Good luck with your training!
Where are you now?
@@BH-ix7nq I received my Blue Belt about 2 months ago :)
@@Ktranphoto congrats
Just started BJJ, watched a ton of videos and yours are the best and most inspirational. Adam is a star!
The hierarchical pecking order goes like this: Adam > Chewy > Adam’s Stool > Everyone Else
His assistant lmao bruh 😂
I could’ve used this video a few months ago! It’s a lesson I learned finally, but it was never articulated... Thank you!
Happy the video made sense Ian. Thanks for the message.
Thanks chewy! I will do the challenge! By the way , I missed you ; I mean I follow you and you were at my gym in garden grove , California! I train under professor Alex D’Hue in garden grove Gracie Barra! I was like no way , chewy was here ! Anyway I will do the challenge and practice my frames
Good video
Gary DePerio
As always, great advice. You're definitely tuned into our white belt problems, man!
Great advice! I'm always trying to muscle my way out and eventually exhaust myself.
I just started 4 week ago, and I think this is what I need to focus on… patience and framing. Specifically patience as it’s easy to get anxious.
Right on, I needed this information. Mahalo!
Excellent. Thanks for the comment!
There won’t be a next time someone passed my guard!!
j/k it happened as I was typing this...
Okay hand over the phone...
Freinds don't let friends text and roll.

Excellent video
Awesome content. I love Adam's character xD
Subscribed for sure. Keep it up!
I really appreciate your teaching. Thank you.
I love your videos man. I wish I lived near your gym so I could go over there and train. Maybe one day it'll be possible. In the meantime I'll keep enjoying your videos.
Chewy you're AWESOME! Adam you're a BEAST!
This i learned after one year into Bjj great to make a video on this brother. 👍🏻
Thank you for this. I think this will help as a 3 week old white belt.
Great tip. Adam should wear an orange gi without sleeves
Adam Wilson's jazz hands are awesome
Nice content as usual! Keep it up! 😊
Thanks John.
Great 👍🏼 stuff!!
Thanks Chewy.
Love Adam ❤️
Basic lessons are exactly what I need at this point. Thank you gents!
Adam has such a shiny head.
He waxes it before we go on video.
@@Chewjitsu actually?
Turtle wax?
Adam is hilarious.
Great video!
CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!!!!! Open roll today... This is what I'm focusing on.

It seems you are going to the wrong gym or you just had bad luck. Those are serious injuries
tap early and tap often
@@metaloper Just unlucky. Crazy accident
Can Adam please get his own videos every now and then? He's just the loveliest
You haven't really learned something untill you can use it
Yup

This was 100% me 🤣🤣🤣 right down to the bad knee thank you for this video it's a big help
Adam is awesome...
Thank you 😮💨
This is very helpful .
9 months into my bjj training. I only panicked twice while being mounted and couldn't breathe.
awesome chew...💪💪💪🐼
Great video
Thanks Ross.
When is a discord server coming out?
Adam’s words of wisdom 😂
Always.

You can frustrate some of the more aggressive rollers with this emphasis on framing and position. When they get impatient is when they make mistakes you can use against them.
Is it just me or is the training partner belt on wrong. Should be on the left?
The hard part with the frames is being able to use your bone structure for the frame instead of muscle. Constantly using muscle just saps energy.
Helpful
No one: Adam:👋👁👄👁👋
I took my first lesson 2 days ago. My knees are busted and my toes are scratched up from the mat.
I also got swept by a 1m60 lady while being a 1m90 110kg beefy gymlad.
Thats the good motivation to get better tho 😂
You're doing it right 👍
It’s Helpful!
Thanks. I think I'm epileptic during my BJJ, so I really need to fix this one.
Adam?
Adam.
Is it true your training partner once suffered his worst injury by his face breaking when he attempted to smile?
chew i got a question. just about every video i see where someone has another in closed guard their legs are sorta positioned right on top of the hips and legs. people jump me all the time at my gym about my legs needing to be as high as possible. as close to the armpits as possible. yet when i watch them roll they do the opposite. whats the deal?

@0:54 - just described my entire game...hmm...
I got a blue belt within 4 months never been so happy
Sounds like a really good drill to me.
Definitely got something out of that.
How come Adam hasn't earned a stripe? He's been a black belt for a few years now, right?
"They're like buddies"...Adam......."the fuck?"
I get caught all the time. But I've noticed every single time the other person runs out of steam looking for submissions
Did Adam blink at all during this video XD?
Man didn’t even blink once lol
Everytime I get mounted, i always go for half guard escape, been working so far. With side control, i need to really work on not getting flattened by the bigger guys
You could try bridging. This video includes a method where you "punch" out to help direct your bridge.

Haha adam is the man.
ADAM
Is that dude eye-balling me?
adam has one helluva frown
Red belt in mean mugging
Iron squirrel all day
All day.
The day I see adam blink I will be very disappointed
Those jazz hands lmao
Basically a Blackbelt is a white belt that got darker with years of use.
Most depressing music ever.
