Just seeing this now, I'm the 2nd guy. Jumped into this comp after 7 weeks of training, it's funny looking back now, genuinely had no clue what I was doing. Thanks again for the roll
@@6flags545 absolutely. As much as people will tell you it doesn't, it really does. It will become less relevant as I progress through the belts but at a white belt level strength is such a big advantage in my opinion. The key is to not rely on it and focus on technique but if you can combine the 2 then youre giving yourself a big advantage.
@@6flags545 it doesn't. Core strength , and spinal health, for fighting, can't be built any other way than doing all kinds of wild dynamic movements . Lifting Gyms don't do that.
As a former wrestler looking into BJJ the ending note you made really struck. The moment I stopped being fearful I received 2nd place in a wrestling tournament and beat someone who was 12-0.
I’m a white belt with first strip. I’m 36. But I have a good time in classes man. Should I try out for tournaments. I’m pretty confident in No Gi style.
@@vincewyntermusicnt I think you should try at least one tournament! The one I did I was able to sign up for gi and no-gi and it was a blast! I didn’t win all my matches but it was still a great experience and I learned a lot of things I need to work on. Just another day on the mats! Good luck 👍
Learning is the most important outcome of the tournament. White belts need to learn, and this is a great way to develop skills quickly. I am sure he will work on his ability to take the back when the oppurtunity presents itself in the future.
bro this kind of performance and you've only been training for 2 months ... that's insane!! Congrats on the medal. Looking forward to more content from you as a BJJ newbie myself.
I just started BJJ a few months back and it's quickly become my obsession. Thank you for this video bc I want to compete eventually and this video just confirmed my desire and goal. Thanks brother! Keep training!
Great job! I've been training BJJ now for 5 months now. I'm hopping to compete at 220lbs in 2 months. I eventually wanna get down to 195, because I'm currently at 6'1 230 lbs. Now I'm excited to compete after seeing this!
One of the best jiu-jitsu videos I've seen! It inspired me and will certainly inspire a lot of people. Post more videos like this please. A new subscriber from Brazil!
Dude this was awesome to watch. I have my first tournament coming up in 3 weeks and am stoked. Best of luck to you on your journey. Fear is a choice, acknowledge it, but don’t choose it 🔥
Thank you for the video it was very informative, ive just recently started bjj (5 lessons in lol) and was curious white belt competitions ect. Congratulations on the win 👊 thank you
@@jt.anthony cool dude. It’s always good to mix it up. I did Krav Maga for 10 years and realized my ground game was awful so I started BJJ like 3.5 weeks ago. It’s definitely different and very technical. Did you make it to blue belt? Thanks for the response.
Bro full respect on this vid. Propper skills man. I won 2 gold in a comp yesterday but at superheavy so not as fast. Really impressed with your workrate. Good job 🙌🙌
I have my first tournament this week. Im 42, man you are really fast and have great timing on your foot sweeps. Hope I dont run into a killer like you! Great video.
I so needed this !!! I’m about to go into my first tournament after 6 months of training. This just inspired me to go for it! I’m a 38 year old female with 6 years of Taekwondo experience. But this is so much diff from what I’m used to. I just pray I don’t covert to tkd during a match 🤣
I know this video is old but you inspired the hell out of me. I have a similar mindset to yours and I’m currently training in jiu jitsu, 3 weeks in.. ✌🏽❤
Hi brother, I genuinely enjoyed the content. I'm similar, new white belt. I also fight around 190 lb. I've had 3 competitions so far. Would have loved to hear more about you. You're obviously an athletic young man with a good penchant for foot sweeps. Your first competitor seemed very well matched, the man actually seemed to know a bit more jitsu than you but he had trouble capitalizing on his sweeps. Great matches overall. And great gas tank.
really good job, one thing I would focus on is just settling; you got the initial takedown a lot, got to side control, but they got out and made you scramble, try to just sit in side control and breath for 5 seconds, it’ll help a lot.
Man this is excellent for your first competition. Great work! I would just say, don't rush the transition from side control to full mount. There's a lot you can do from side control, and you should only transition to the mount once you have a clear opportunity to do so.
Just seeing this now, I'm the 2nd guy. Jumped into this comp after 7 weeks of training, it's funny looking back now, genuinely had no clue what I was doing. Thanks again for the roll
Does your lifting strength carry over well to grappling?

@@sasquatchrosefartsit 100% does.
Honestly as someone who has never participated in BJJ just by watching your video alone has inspired me to take on the sport.
Awesome. Try to stick with it!
@@jt.anthony 1 of the best videos I have ever seen. I can see the natural talent. You will progress very fast. I will start my journey next year.
Doooo it omg it's so fun
@@Roxas935 Judo and Jiu Jitsu.
I really hope you did start jiujitsu brother
Coming back to this video 6 months later and this is still the best BJJ white belt vid on UA-cam! Keep up the good content G!
Insane!! That last match was intense, had me on the edge of my seat. Congrats on the W mate 🥇
Appreciate it Lars!
Ha! Mee too. Just finshed saying that then looked down at the other comments!
Awesome ! Respect to you brother, been going at it for almost a year and lost my two first tournaments. But there ain’t no stopping me God willing !
As a former wrestler looking into BJJ the ending note you made really struck. The moment I stopped being fearful I received 2nd place in a wrestling tournament and beat someone who was 12-0.
I love your coach's reaction to the other side saying "Fuck him up". He's a real one
12:45 too dang funny
He said "buck him off" (like a horse) because his guy was turtled under JT
Great performance! I’m new to jujitsu and look forward to my first tournament. Very motivating young man.
Thanks Marcos - I say just go for it!

if i was one of the one supervising your matches, i would of got mad suspicion, you are very good for 2 months in BJJ
great point retention, not letting him settle into mount and going to your knees is great
Learning is the most important outcome of the tournament. White belts need to learn, and this is a great way to develop skills quickly. I am sure he will work on his ability to take the back when the oppurtunity presents itself in the future.
this man got all in one UA-cam channel. fighting, self help and work stuff
That's the goal!
Great to see, and LOVE the humbleness (humility)...
Seems im fighting myself, mentally and physically...
im New white belt
Thank you. Make sure you keep at it!
damn, what a performance dude, I'm thinking to compete (my first competition) and you inspire me to train harder. Congratulations mate🤝🥋
Appreciate that!!
11:48 was insane. To much Inspiration in this video. God bless you. Oss
Bruh got himself gold with incredible guard passing and takedowns. Dayum dude

i love watching whitebelt competitions, you see so much that can be done. Oss good work JT
Great fighting spirit for a first comp, clearly absorbed good movement fundamentals staying a step ahead in scrambling positions.
Solid solid performance especially for 2 months training in gi.
I’m 2 weeks in, and this made me even more excited!!!
Beautiful takedowns, aggression & defence, very interesting to watch as a relatively new bjj myself
Appreciate the content. Don’t see it from the beginner point of view ever. You did great
Amazing job Im about two months in and this is honestly inspiring and makes me pumped to keep training. Thanks for making this video man.

Congratulations! Awesome work.
That was really cool to watch you triumph
Appreciate that!
For 2 months you did amazing! Very good competition.
I don’t believe you’ve only been training in BJJ a few weeks. This is crazy!

You were rolling really well for only 2 months training. Nice job.
Thanks!

Let us know how it went if you did attend.
She lost.
Honestly your also in shape bro continue the journey!
Good job man, way to not give up at the end

so pumped by this man! wlll have my 1st comp this weekend. wish me luck!
Good luck!
