“Hesitation is a form of disrespecting your opponent and not giving the challenge they rightfully deserve” .. smooth mate
6 years in bjj. Owner of too many instructionals. This is… the best bjj vid i ever saw.
❤
I think it would take me a year of watching instructionals 24/7 to get through all of mine.
Do you go to legacy bjj?
@@drew2istlet me get a couple! Lol
I've never bought one, which is a good one to start with that has a good balance of guard passing, retention and submission sequences, I watch a lot of UA-cam stuff that's pretty good but I hear a full instructional can be more beneficial somehow. I've actually downloaded a few in torrents back like 4 years ago.
“Rapid skill gain is about incrementally making improvements to specific areas”
Thanks for the video man 💪
That's why you should also be Lifting. Same Mindset.
Yes give me the secrets father
Mhhh yes daddy I don't even train BJJ but I still feel enlightened ❤

Great video! Best line "I belive in respecting my opponent by absolutely beating their ass and crushing their confidence and I could give a flying fuck what belt you are, anyone can get it."
Yes! Loving the frequent uploads! It's awesome to see you back in full swing 😁
Between the two of you Jordan Teaches Jiu Jitsu I don't think ill ever run out of quality BJJ content!
"Most of you don't roll hard enough to get any meaningful improvement to your cardio, and the people that are rolling that hard are plagued by injuries".
Love it. Sooo many BJJ coaches out there will tell you "Just roll harder if you think your cardio is bad". Consistently Red lining on the mat is begging to get injured. Do that in a controlled setting with safe movements.
define controlled settings? pushing harder in positional training or working on your cardio outside of the gym.
Ironically Wiltse is injured everywhere. Smesh everyone tho
you could just go on runs or do other things to improve your cardio instead of trying to do bjj for cardio
YOUR HOUSE IS ON FIRE!
As someone obsessed with learning, this concept is obvious to me as this is how I learned almost everything else in my life. However, it's difficult to find people that want to LEARN, vs people that "We gotta roll dude, only way to get better, just roll roll roll!" ... No one wants to take time in one position or drilling one thing or trying one concept. The general population of BJJ practitioners just want to roll (free roll) because they want to have fun (and possibly use their weight and strength advantage to win and feel good). Now, higher belts that have got past the humbling stage and found out they couldn't just rely on strength are more open to this because they've realized drilling technique is better for you that drilling weights all day in the long run, but those specific people aren't always there. Anyways, it's slightly frustrating. At the end of the day, BJJ is personal for a lot of people, their ego's are on the line, and therefore aren't always open to doing the "boring stuff" or risking doing proper technique rather than choking out the small white belt from inside their guard and "winning."
Drilling technique is crucial (especially if you're a beginner, I guess) for sure, but I also understand where people who only want to roll are coming from. Because at the end of the day, I reckon that fighting is 80% mental, where experience (rolling vs drilling technique) makes a difference.
As even Wiltse himself mentioned, the conventional gym format of no-resistance drilling followed by free rolling is very inefficient. I can attest to that. So it's not wrong to want to roll so badly during class if the alternative is keep doing more reps of a no-resistance drill that you know has literally 0% chance of becoming incorporated into your game. Just try to think of the last time you actually used a repped move in a free roll and pulled it off successfully; I can name 0. So given the choice of one over the other one should still choose rolling. During free rolling, you can then focus on whatever you want. Very very few gyms do focused situational sparring (i.e. "drilling with resistance"), so if you find one that does, it's gold.
Are you only going to roll classes? They have drill classes and form classes in which you only focus on different techniques and don't roll at all, just use a partner to work on that specific thing
The beginning of this video is applicable to EVERYTHING. It took me too long in life to realize that getting good at something is simply breaking it down to the elements, then the nuances. You get good at something when all the nuances have been trained individually and they come together as a whole.
The fact that we had a TFS reference right off the bat brings a smile to my face.
What's TFS?

@@hortinus thanks
Feels like your guys’ content has leveled up since coming back. Loving all the videos, thank you!
great stuff! I always make sure my students dont just drill mindlessly. positional sparring/drilling is where improvements are made
This is by far THE BEST BJJ advice on UA-cam. I needed to hear this. Thank you for being brutally honest.
Some of the best Martial Arts advice in general
This will be my go to video, so much information and strategies...you speak so many truths and spread some tough love we all need! Thank you and please keep posting 🤙🤘🤘🤘
Loving all of this content! Keep it up guys!
You're a gem dude. I've been hyper-focused on a couple areas in jiu-jitsu since I was a white belt. It's helped me so much to specialize rather than scatter my focus.
I really need to improve my cardio though.
Andrew, just want to say a huge thank you to yourself and Bird for this and all of your other free content. As a 35 year old out of shape white belt, timidity had absolutely been a factor in starting BJJ; but mindset videos like this & instructional like your knee slice technique have played a massive part in confidence and skill building at the very first stage. I am seriously enjoying things more as a result, so sincere thanks for your help.
This hit home on many levels thanks Andrew especially good timing before a comp Saturday
Loving the new Wiltse content
This video is GOLD, i am gonna start working on it ASAP, there is so many things i never even thought about and now it makes sense!
Lovely to see you progressing in the youtube game. Video editing on point. Much love and respect to the W bros.
Awesome video! thanks so much for the talk Andrew.
This is one of the best BJJ videos I’ve ever watched. Actionable and practical advice. I need to drill more and I’ve known this for a while. It’s hard to find people who are ready to prescribe to it as well. I am thinking maybe 2 hours of drilling a week and 1 hour of rolling with a specific goal and 1 hour of true free rolling. Thanks for this.
This content is way to good for me to just be finding this channel. Subscribed
I can listen to your intimate knowledge for days straight into the meat of what a pro should be learning
It blows my mind how good you are at this. Thank you Andrew best UA-cam bjj videos
Best content I’ve listened to. I’m committing to getting smeshed and trying to smesh with purpose against the black belts I’ve been avoiding, thanks to this. Appreciate you, man
We’ll, I’m saving up to get your instructional. Can’t wait.
Good work Andrew & Bird!
I’m super new and I really appreciate this type of content. I’m on my 7th class and am trying to fast track my progress. I did Muay Thai for a year and a half before joining a BJJ gym. As a white belt being ragdolled around, I’m definitely trying my best to learn fast.
From one white belt to another i feel ya, being only female & usually smallest in class i was the rag doll, I’ve gotten more aggressive, more focus, now im not always the rag doll, I can actually defend more, & try more towards technical moves to defend or trap them. Competition did help a lot, anyway have fun, 👍🤓🤘🏻🔥☝🏻👌🏻🌎
hello there. White belt here. Some advice i would like to give, is finding people who are willing to drill. One of my coaches had me do a hole 6 minute round of only using my feet on my aponent. Was hard, but worth it. Drill it to kill it. Love this guys info. Good luck.
It’s not a race and Muay Thai for a year and a half is nothing and won’t do anything to assist or progress someone’s BJJ
I absolutely love these videos 🤣 so well done. You’re hilarious bro, and full of useful info. Thx 🤙
Beautifully said!
Especially the part about how learning to learn is the greatest skill you can learn.
I remember watching my first Ryan Hall instructional years ago, and until he started explaining things in terms of logic and physics, I have always felt that bjj was magic that you either know or don't.
When I started understanding that bjj can be learnt by doing things in a systemic way, I realized that I can learn anything. This changed my life!
This rant really puts into words things that were in my head, but I couldn't formulate into words.
Thank you Andrew for this video!
WOW!!
More of these, please! Thanks for the content
This was a great video thanks for sharing your knowledge. You are are a beast and very good at explaining things. Thank you!
You, my friend, are an absolute legend. Big fan
Great stuff. Mario 64 music really makes this stuff sink in easier. You guys are doing awesome work.
Good to see you back.
One of the best infomercials I've ever seen
i almost didn't want to watch the video, then i watched the whole thing. love the glorious rant my man!
Thank you. Great watch.
This guy has some good humor, I can learn a lot from him for sure I'll be around.
This is unbelievable Wiltse...truly
Thank you for posting.
Always learn from you.
Be well.
25:00 been working on this the past few years and it has made such a huge difference
I feel like this rant was specifically geared toward me! lol. Working on getting the squat rack set back up in the gym..Will be adding strength training and stretching into my weekly routine
Great content. Thank you. 🙏
All the great information, nuances, and humor in here really shows how intelligent Andrew Wiltse actually is. 🧠
9:13 “Stop over respecting your opponents and under valuing your own abilities, you’re only holding yourself back.” This hits hard. Focus on 1-2 things. Master those, or at worst get very proficient. Then add 1-2 more. Repeat. Best BJJ advice I’ve heard, and it’s from a champ.
💯 Great Video!! Keep ‘em coming.
Opening minute epic, you're the man man, so glad your back in my daily feed, real sh!t.
Great stuff as always
this video was exactly what i needed!!! thank you
I've been spending like 6 months getting to the back and finishing chokes. Every role I'm trying to get to the back. For the first 3 months I sucked at it and wasn't finishing anyone and getting tapped by blue belts. But now even my coach doesn't want me on his back. The hyper focus is tough at first but if you grind through it it's worth it. Now since I have some good move sets to get me to the back I'm working on my guard. Starting with situp guard to a single leg, passing and getting to the back.
This man is a warrior and a poet
26+ minutes of pure gold!!!
Amazing vid , very eye opening
love you, man. Thanks for video!
I've been doing something similar recently at my BJJ gym. I was watching a ton of BJJ skill videos but it wasn't amounting to much. I started focusing on one skill at a time instead, which I'd try to execute at class the next day, and I started catching people in submissions, or getting out of bad positions. My mission would be to try that one move at class and I'd stay focused on it. After watching this, I'm going to start focusing on each skill for a month to get good at it. Great tips.
Thank you for a truly instructive and hilarious video.
Aside from this video being hysterical, this advice is fantastic.
Thank you Mr. Wiltse
This was gold!
This was the first of your videos I've watched and it's fantastic
Great advice, thanks!
Damn, I really needed to hear this! Thanks! 😁
Will now endeavor to turn my warm bucket of miscellaneous techniques into a tight, drilled game. Thank you Master Wiltse!
Awesome video. You guys have been on a UA-cam tear!
Great video. Made me laugh and you taught me to be observant.
I do Judo but found a lot of your advice to be very applicable regardless. Good work.
Interesting sport. I am learning more on these videos than what I’ve experienced this 5 year bjj journey of mine
Great video. This isn't BJJ advice. This is life advice.
Thanks! Awesome vid
Love you content so much! thank you!
I am not special or exceptional. I was torn between trying to get better at one part of my game and becoming a 'specialist' and trying to half learn a larger selection of guards / games. This had made the decision a LOT clearer thank you!
When I started rolling at other gyms it helped me so much ! Also confidence was something I had to really work on and when I stopped caring and just started getting after things started to click
Good stuff Andrew
I’m in your server and I do complain often. I feel like you’ve called me out on this😂. Thanks man I do really need to hear this out.
Shiiit, so much makes sense here. Really good video. Thanks.
❤🎉 I needed this!!
Love seeing TFS Appreciation
Wow, you hit the nail on the head, this just palm struck me right in the face….it’s true I feel scattered all over, I’m 46, train 6 days a week, for a little over a year, yet still feel like WTF when rolling, i need to find what to focus on & just freaking do it, especially since I learn slower (apparently) I’m timid but already working on that, I’ve gotten more aggressive because not was messing me up, thx for video, 👍🤓🤘🏻🔥☝🏻👌🏻🌎
Build your game from the ground up. Let people pass your guard and start from there. Once you can stop people from submitting you, learn to recover guard, after that work on your sweeps, once you’re able to get on top, work on your top control, guard passing and pins and then focus on submissions. Don’t start the other way around, you’ll never be able to confidently attack and pull off submissions if you are worried about being pinned on bottom.
Wow congrats you can out bjj a 50 year old maybe
Fantastic video - everything you said was true. I also realised my own truth. The bottom line is that I simply don't care enough. Everything you said was 100% what my 20 year old self would have loved to hear. Alas I'm 25 years too late for that attitude! I'm going to try and implement as much as I can though and I love the content. That song of yours in the background is just way too catchy!
Great vid!
This is like a roast! Love your approach. Thanks for the great content!
Andrew Wiltse is my spirit animal 🐺
Great vid 🎉
Honestly the funniest video brilliant information
this is the best jiu jitsu youtube video ever made
Ah… finally a video meant just for me ❤
Thank you so much your Lilly putting it down Raw , if you can understand this you don't belong in this you're a good keep it up. For us new comers, have live life a little. Again thank you. Cta student.
The best advice ever 💪🏽
Love this!!!
Man dude, lots of hard truths in here. Thanks man, time to focus.
Man I needed this…
Faarkin yeww!! Never seen the perfect mix of truth and humour in YT video before 👏
Very unique, very special
For those that want to improve, do what he says. He is right.
i've been thinking along the same lines. focusing on having insane defense and escapes, wrestling, chokes and back takes and that's it. not rly a fan of playing guard or joint locks anymore
