35 Years Old Black Belt under Erik Paulson. I started when I was 15 because I was getting bullied. It took me 7 years to get my blue belt and 16 to get my Black Belt. It's opened every door of opportunity that has ever been in my life. It made me think differently and the mindset you develop through the training is unexplainable! If you're reading this, find a good school to train at! Bedros you're the man for posting this. Thank you for the positive marketing of why every man, women and child should get into martial arts and make it a part of your daily practice.
7yrs yo get a blue belt is crazy. Were you going once a month?
Oh absolutely! It makes you different. You’re calmer, kinder, more self-assured, but less reactive. People can dis you right to your face, you feel nothing. You see someone bully someone else and you STEP IN, with zero regard for personal safety. Cause you KNOW you’re gonna beat that coward down.
Sorry if this sounds cocky, but only if you haven’t “walked the walk”. And if you have, well, you know what I mean.
@@thebizness5596Do you have a blue belt?
@@redwave96734 no one in these comments have been to a bjj session even once
The key to the rear naked choke is not just squeezing your biceps. It’s using your entire back and rotating with the choke. Good stuff!
And being.
Naked
Being naked helps@@rageatm4life
Being naked *& sinking it in deep from the rear.
Good call, at the end of the RNC instruction I mentioned that I went over was more of a primer for someone without much experience and against someone without much experience. When I teach I go into much greater detail, but for this I thought it would be beyond the scope of this video.
Can’t disagree with the naked part.
44 years old. Been training for 15+ years, changed my life, no drugs alcohol and gained my confidence and a healthy body. Fucking people up is the smallest benefit of the fighting arts
Totally agree
💯
@scottmiller9374
Yeah, but it’s not nothing. I mean, some people are just BEGGING to get JACKED!
Dude, I’m just kidding. I totally agree with your comment!
The way you say it brother makes me think that’s exactly why you like doing it “fucking people up”
My lifelong best friend earned his black belt by the time we were sophomores in high school. We rolled for hours in the backyard, mostly him kicking my ass, but teaching me things along the way. There’s things I still remember, over 10 years later. He passed away a couple summers ago while serving our country. RIP SSG Clark. I love you and miss you deeply.
No he didn't. You can't even get a blue belt until you are 16.
I've been training martial arts for 36 years. Been training BJJ for 3.5. One thing I've learned in my time is that the nicer a person reacts to aggression, the more the aggressor should worry.
I think that would scare the heck out of me😂
what an accurate comment lol.
I am 35 years old and one month into BJJ. Just started sparring. Everyone at our academy is super chill and friendly. Yesterday, I got my assed pinned by a 48 year-old that has been training for about 2 years. It really humbled me and gave me some perspective to how important it is to be able to defend myself. After he whooped my ass, we had a good laugh and now are good friends. It's crazy how fast you become family in this community.
42yr old BJJ black belt. Ive only used my Jiu-jitsu in the street once in 13 years of training. I was a purple belt. Im glad i had it. The benefits to my body, relationships with my kids, patience, and mindset are the biggest for me.
This is great! Thank you Bedros for letting me a part of this episode.
You are awesome Mike! 🙏🏼
Thank you, Mike.
Say yes to the adventure.
Thank you, Bedros.

Good start Jiu Jitsu is the way 🥋👍keep rolling bro
I use the buddy system. No more flying solo. You need somebody watching your back at all times!
Crazy respect to this guy for his passion to challenge himself and work out of his comfort zone.
Sir i wish spen a day with you just having conversation like this. Love it.
For me the best thing about jiu jitsu is it completely transformed my understanding of a healthy life style….every roll is a reminder to eat/live better
The world would be a better place if more men thought and acted this way. It is up to us, gents.
I really like this talk.
I share the same idea and approach. I hope my son and my grandson follow. Thanks 🙏🏾
Rolled a couple times this week, just got my gi & getting right this week. I boxed for a bit, gearing up for some competitive shooting, & been putting off wrestling and jui Jitsu but I am locking in now
Nice to see you train Bedros :)
Just found you recently….I’m a 55 year old Brown Belt been training 8+ years. Really like your mentality. Maybe I’ll reach out to you on the business level
thank you
Looking forward to it!
great advice given. Ill like to add, as someone who does bjj, if you looking to know how to defend yourself or protect someone learning how to strike is ESSENTIAL!!! with your grappling skill.
It’s pretty amazing that the worlds most effective and efficient martial art is also the worlds most humane.
Fought 4 Thai and MMA fights by age 19, black belt by 29
There’s always this debate about which is better….obviously do both if you can however I tell people there is nothing wrong with taking turns. Progress is key as most won’t even start👌👏🏼
Feels criminal being here this early
Love this session🔥🔥🔥 Maybe invite Karo Parisyan next time.
I’ve been boxing close to 6 months. This would be a great opportunity to learn Jui Jitsu
I agree with this! I'm looking for a jujitsu gym so I can start training
Sir you are a gentleman and a scholar
rolling is so fun you can go into the deep waters rolling super challenging
Bro I have every issue minus one of Jiu jitsu magazine….I miss it so much
How old were you when you first started to roll?
23. Wish I would’ve started sooner. 😅
Bedros is a beast
I prefer striking and especially for the street fights when faced against more than one opponent.
Jujitsu is great no doubt when in bad spots or simply if you want to be nice to enemy and submit him without punching or getting punched.
I started Gracies Jiujitsu at age 46 after years of Shotokan Karate which is absolute best for kicks and strong legs and training in Yugoslavia were brutal vs what they do in schools here in jujitsu especially warming up and practicing same kick or punch for what felt hours some times till your whole body shakes standing in same wide stance.
These days You have to know both I also realized that Boxing thrown in the mix is the ultimate art.
Great Mentor!!!
No Gi Jiu Jitsu is the way! (i hate Gi laundry) 😂
Grappling basically yeah true but jiu-jitsu is good also, but I believe to defend yourself in the street Grappling is better because you can't use the clothes as jiu-jitsu use it.
I’ve Given up Gi JiuJitsu for Judo 🥋. Much more fun, especially when landing massive throws and trips. Also in Judo there is ground game (Ne Waza).
For Jiu Jitsu I just do No Gi because I can wrestle and Judo.
Judo all the way though for Gi stuff imo. A very dangerous grappler is one who does wrestling, judo and ground game.
Also it’s fun to come to Jiu Jitsu gi class and throw your buddies around 😂
@@x-Musashi-x I'm doing MMA but i would really like to try Judo, we primarily use wrestling takedowns, but i think Judo would be very fun
@@insaneguy1197Judo is amazing. It’s like wrestling but with a jacket. Khabib was a wrestler and also a black belting Judo. He would often chain his wrestling with Judo sweeps and throws. Highly recommend Judo!
Ditto. Judo is way cool, not only because of the highly technical throws, but because of the strong ethical backbone to judo. It’s all about treating your fellow man as humanely as possible - even if they’re trying to beat your @$$!!
i watched this video in the car and the chirps and squeaks had me tweaking
BJJ is only one part of big picture self-defense. It’s a big part when weapons aren’t present or justified but real world self-defense requires a multitude of techniques, tactics, and awareness…
19:07 is where the Gold starts
You can still go to jail in some states for that rear naked choke. If you make a person unconscious it can be looked at as being over aggressive use of deadly force.
B, come up to Torrance and train with us at Gracie University....
If a women wants to be protected by me she beter bring something in my life and have value in rest they can protect themselfs they are strong queens
Settle down protector
Ha ha, well said! “Yeah, da bitches betta be puttin’ out before dey get MY protection!” Who are you, Big Bad Pimp Rooster?
Fuck Yeah BK!!!! This is good shit!!!! Love it man!!!
Bjj you need it in your tool box but the more I understand learn and know combat sports it's not the be all end all you need other tools if somebody can control your posture if somebody can control the space between you and them if a person is dynamic using their limbs their feet their hands elbows knees using their feet to keep distance all that stuff is equally I fully believe in having a mixed bag of tools your ability to defend yourself everywhere is key knowing how to use your whole body learning a martial art is a great start learning multiple martial arts is even better I would suggest learning a martial art to be safe on your feet if you're going to do BJJ I would suggest learning wrestling as well
So what happens when you train?
I'm 47. Should I do JJJ or BJJ ?
I think being from the hood, this is how I normally look at places when I go out. Check my surroundings, exits, strange people and not like homeless. 6:20
How well will it work during WW3?
close contact
Better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war.
where can I get the shirts haha
You got to get Tony Blauer on a session
Intresting content
Gym tour?
💯💯💯💯
One day ill learn...
Start today
I want to learn but have this fear and massive amounts of anxiety going into a gym and really getting involved any tips
You are probably the 200th person at any given gym who felt that way. No one will have any problem or judge you for feeling that way, buddy.
Everyone who starts will suck. Big, small, old, young, male, female. Find comfort in knowing everyone starts the same. It’s humiliating every single time and that’s where the growth is but it’s a welcoming community. No one laughs at you when you tap; you’re given feedback. If you’re big, you have weight advantage to sweep and smother. If you’re small (I’m only 130lbs), it can be advantageous in slipping out of things and with flexibility. In some time you will see with yourself or others that the training beats size and strength (of someone with less training) and that is the most encouraging/motivating aspect. There’s never a day you leave the mats not having learned something, even if it felt like a bad day. Training partners feel like teammates you’re practicing with and it’s not all serious like movie boxing gyms. I hope you find this encouraging
- one year white belt
These feelings are normal. It's one of those things "you don't know until you try". Everyone that you come across at the local jiujitsu school will remember their first day, or when they just started out. They will encourage you and help you overcome those fears. I've been to literally hundreds of schools around the world and jiu-jitsu is a brother/sisterhood, we all want to see more people benefiting from the sport/art we love.
You can do it. Just go train. A lot of times, i go but don't want to, but im glad i went every time!
I’ve been training jiujitsu for 8 years and I still feel like this. The feeling is normal. Don’t let F.E.A.R stop you.
How long you been training Bedros? I’m 35 and just started BJJ. Very fun and kicking my ass because I’m a fat pumpkin with titties and out of shape. I’m gassed just doing routine drills 😂
its good to learn but also can really injure yourself by going hard. Be careful shit is no joke
Bedros- would you be open to being my 1st guest for my new podcast?
I love BJJ, it’s a great art, I love the art, the training rolling, it’s a great martial are, but no good for the street. I’ve worked as a bouncer, in 10 months that I did that work, only one fight went to the ground. All fights start standing up, I’d never want to go to the ground in the real world.
That's why you need to learn ( kick) boxing as well. A lot of fights end on the ground btw.
Sir is it for women?
When are you to old for Jiu jitsu?
God is love.
We all fall short and sin.
Love is just and merciful.
Because God is loving He must judge sin, we all stand judged and are due to face His wrath as slaves of sin.
Because God is merciful He provided a way out from under the weight of the law and His wrath, and a way for us to be regenerated.
If we trust Jesus shed His sinless blood, died and rose from the grave He forgives us of our sins and gives us a new heart that wants to look God as our Father genuinely and delight in Him, freeing us from being slaves to sin.
The rest is our mind catching up with that reality and taking hold of His teaching and truth until He returns, or we die.
Can you do this at 55, one year old after a torn rotator cuff?
Im 55, 1 stripe white belt. Just tap early and tap often. Make sure your Professor, and your training buddies, knows about your shoulder problem. Leave your ego at home, and have fun!
Btw, i have shoulder impengement issues myself! Haha
I've dislocated both shoulders multiple times, AC joint injury, you learn to adapt and adjust. You can do it, just recognize your physical limitations of the injuries.
Hey. I got a bump knee and shit shoulders. All my team mates know so when we roll they make sure not to attack the knee or throw me in a Kimura. Just let them know you’ll be good
Hell I have both rotator cuffs torn ...never repaired...been training 10 +years brown belt
56 yr old purple belt here bedroom…how far have you gotten?
Bedros….sorry autocorrect
Brown Belt here - 8 years
I do both Krav Maga and BJJ for personal protection, to protect my love ones and love for the art. The streets are becoming dangerous to walk in and in order to be an asset you must put in work in martial arts. Great video.
Vagner rocha look alike 😅
I love what your saying, 100.. however lets not forget unless in restricted areas, or posted for some reason, yes you can carry a Knife or a gun and you should. Why Not ? LOL Ohh wait I just heard him say he did the San Diego Marathon So California's tough !
Mma saved my lifen

No way you do BJJ. Can you get anymore elite bro LOL
JIu jitsu, I find, love brag about, beat wrestler. In fact, 100 percent of confidence from jiu jitsu come from wrestler lose to jiu jitsu brown belt clip. You know? Wrestler not a martial art, like it was in warrior day. If you have wrestler school, where you have belt system, wrestling gonna be one of main grappler art, like judo and jiu jitsu. Every black belt in jiu jitsu think they this change person. Spiritual wisdom change a person, not trademark tattoo on forearm of jiu jitsu practitioner 'change' a person or black belt in ANY art. Hercules a wrestler and one of his trial, take on 'crippler,' which imply ground fighter, and Hercules know this a tough test, cuz he only take on severe, epic trial. So. 'Jiu Jitsu' a great warrior expression during time of Hercules. But. Hercules win. Black belt in jiu jitsu, no make you 'crippler,' take on Hercules, fight to death. You a speck in the ocean. Pretend you something more a lie, that jiu jitsu, non lineage practitioner, love to spread. A lot of thing make you stand out, when you skill. And. I see Roger Gracie come out of retirement 2020, duel that one dude. He pretty impress. Black belt mean you have clout in your own place of training, small world versus bigger world, vs world of legend.
Yea i d say train JJB or MMA for pleasure and physic not for self defense as anybody can annihilate you with a weapon. Too much time lost at the gym if you dont have any pleasure
Bedros is the example of how BJJ has sold out and lost its way. He will buy his Blackbelt, like he buys the operators involved in his school for scared men. Disgusting.
When men learn BJJ they get long term injuries. That's all!
Sometimes not always
All forms of combat...when trained over time will cause injury...are you a warrior who can heal or fight somewhat injured or are you a golfer?
@@cherokeeoutlaw2.011 heal? Wth like a video game hahaha
This instructors techniques are a bit questionable ... And if you try the gi and then switch to no gi you are avoiding the true art of Jiu Jitsu and not going to get as much ....if you really wanna "build your life resume" learn gi and no gi and don't take the easy way out ... Disliking this video
There are definitely a few details that I could have gone deeper into in the instruction shown here. The example techniques were chosen just as an example for someone with little or no grappling experience.
bjj is cringe. everyone does it now.
do you?
You're cringe you punk 😂😂
It’s a useful life skill I fight mma with w a primary Muay Thai and college wrestling background but Bjj is quite useful
driving cars is cringe. everyone does it now.
Seems like a excuse for a whole bunch of sweaty guys rolling around on the ground and hugging each other = Gay
Than start a scamming business called the project for office dorks and market yourself as a wannabe toughguy. Guy's a clown.
😂😂😂
