Destructive White Belt Mindset VS Productive Black Belt Mindset for BJJ
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 вер 2024
- In today's video I share the big difference from how I trained BJJ when I was younger and how I train BJJ now that I'm a bit older and wiser. I'm sharing this because I received a question from a young guy who says he gets embarrassed when a teammates whom he beat, adjust and beats him.
I resonate with this question because I struggled with this same situation from White Belt to Purple Belt. Most of it stemmed from insecurity but it was a real issue. As I gained some age, experience and some tips from my coaches I started changing my perspective on training.
And in the video I'll share my Black Belt focus on training which has been super useful.
If you're struggling with a similar situation then I hope the video is useful.

If you’d ever like to train with the team and I. Check out my gym Derby City MMA in Louisville,KY.
I need to tell myself these things every day. It's NOT a race, I only need to be better than myself
I would never mess with someone who has (triangle choke) on his shirt
ALI NABEEL 😂
@@Chewjitsu Where can I get that shirt?
@Chewjitsu How has the T-shirt question not been answered yet?? Waaaant haha.
Ah @Chewjitsu ignore that - I just read the full video description!
I was venting to a rolling buddy of mine on how everyone was progressing faster than me....well he said as he smacked me on the head was " you're being lazy and stalling your own game because YOU won't put it all on the mat that's why everyone is passing you"....that coupled with your advice about focusing on the journey is what I needed to hear.
It's so hard to not get into that mind set of competing w your training partners... I got into bjj strictly for the fitness and I still think about it sometimes as competition until I'm just trying to survive rounds or just trying not to puke
I wish I could give this 2 thumbs up. Had my best ever class this week where I felt like I was getting somewhere and then closed out the week by getting absolutely demolished yesterday. In my mind “losing” every roll. Came home mad and learned absolutely nothing from it.
Preaching that champion mentality. Inner focus and ignoring outer distractions. Thanks for sharing brother 🤙🏾
Bryan Caceres happy to share brother. Appreciate the message.
Love seeing that notification for a new video!
Bruh you gotta upload more.
BJiuJitsuTV thanks brother. Hope things are going well in your neck of the woods.
@@checkmate5101 I'm on it, as soon as we're back on the mats...
@@Chewjitsu As good as its gonna be right now. Thanks for the vids as always...
Lmao I came back from a year off and I’m getting smashed by all the guys I used to do pretty well against. I love it, it’s a challenge to me and I’m just happy to see them again. Don’t be a jealous turd, it’s not a race. Enjoy the journey.
Edit: I train with the Chewster
I suck so much, my training partners get impressed when i even sweep them for a second lol
What a great 👍🏼 attitude!!! I’ll be honest, it depends who gets me - I’m only a 2-stripe blue, but if a higher belt catches me in a submission I’m usually laughing afterwards in appreciation often asking how he did it...a while back, a white belt caught me and I told him per usual great job and chuckled but the truth is it ate me up for a while (too much ego) - at least it got me to really think about it and work on closing up that hole in my game.
Ol' Chew's been gettin' some sun. Love the beard
UsingTime thanks bro
@@Chewjitsu You're great Chews! People at tournaments have said I look like you, so one day in the future Im gonna come to your gym and meet you! Youre an inspiration!
I just show up and learn what I learn. I figure that even if I am slow or even outright untalented, knowing mediocre BJJ is better than knowing no BJJ.
Thanks chewie, can always find ways to relate to your advice despite the fact that I’m still new to all of this
Gotta love Chew man. I got to meet him in front of my gym the other day. Just as cool as in person as in his videos. What up Chew!
Genuine. Likeable. Relevant. Thank you for all of your work on this channel. It means a lot to hear your perspective as a student and teacher.
I started jiu jitsu 2 months ago. I started at 41 years old and completely of shape.
There are nights I go into the gym and I am just not getting the moves down and I'm not just getting smashed but I'm giving up simple things I shouldn't. I run out of energy, nearly hyperventilate. I leave feeling like crap and wondering what the hell I'm doing there.
And then there are nights I go and a see very clear improvement. I roll longer, I do better, I recognize the positions and what to do and nail the moves. And I leave feeling great and cannot wait to go back again.
It is a roller coaster. It is one of the hardest things I've ever done. And, so far, it is completely worth it.
Really needed to hear this message I've been training for a month now and all I was worried about was my ego and winning all the time but I finally realized that jiu jitsu is made to be fun and for everyone to enjoy it helps with self defense, techinque, and health and fitness not to make enemies or for winning now I know that I can go in today and get better by losing because what is being the best mean if you can't learn something new and try it on someone else
Love the shirt! (and the content of course; great as always)
Great advice. Wish I could share this with a couple friends. Also, I’m always amazed at how much BJJ relates to life. So many parallels.
i can't wait for my local gym to open again i've been wanting to join for so long now and you've given me the push i needed. :)
I feel like I needed to hear this, thanks for making a video on the topic,Killer question💯
Chew's thumbnails on UA-cam always get me 🤣 Great video as always Chewy!
Adrian Q SOTX Grappler I typically choose a face that makes me laugh at myself 😂
@@Chewjitsu i kinda figured there's no way its a coincidence 🤣🤣 Keep them coming brother! We're always tuned in waiting for your stuff. And I'll be working on that video I emailed you about 🤣
Very excited to start at the Gracie Barra in my city this week🤙
So did you?
When I came back from a rib injury my main training partner mopped me and all I could think was "I need to get better soon because Iron sharpens Iron and I'm no good to him if I'm talc."
@Ben Passlow oh there's always value to tailoring training to those under your level (and no shame being the lower level because you learn a lot there too) ALA Joe Rogan's Blue belt hunting theory, but since he's the Ryu to my Ken we both enjoy pushing each other to the next level from a similar standing. We got back there after a couple months, since I'm a maniac who enjoys training as often as possible and he has real adult responsibilities.
Thank you Chewie! Several of the guys that started when I did have 4 stripes (I have none), I would too if I pushed myself. I felt so bad about it but it’s more motivation to keep going
You don't want your training partners to be losers, you want them to be the best they can be too. In order for that to happen, you have to have the humility to grow with them, and not the arrogance of thinking what was yesterday is today.
Grow, learn, and enjoy the journey. Otherwise you're just going to be miserable.
I needed this, thanks a lot sir!
Excellent advice
Love your channel Chewy, also where do I buy the triangle shirt ?
Julian Huitema epicrollbjj.com use promo code Chewjitsu to save some dough if you buy it.
Gonna work on my side control tonight. Hip, neck, weight
I enjoyed this video
What do you think about this "productive mindset for a black belt" at 12:41 in this video: ua-cam.com/video/QyySXiT0HU4/v-deo.html ?
Amazing video
Haha rich and triangle catching you in Chad.
sometimes when i roll with other white belts i feel them trying so hard to not lose. spazzing out and grabbing my fingers and stuff. it’s weird tbh
What's the difference between Machado Jujitsu and Brazillian Jujitsu
Ssssso what is your go-to triangle escape Chew? Traditional stack n pass?
Compare yourself to who you were yesterday, not who someone else is today.
Where do I submit questions ???
Where can I buy this t-shirt?
Chewy, I do have a question though, I do BJJ with my brothers. My older brother is a blue belt and he's pretty good. My younger brother and I are both white belts and I already know he's better than me because I feel like he's confident in his abilities. I've rolled with both of them and I know they're confident. My question is how do I gain confidence in my abilities and how do I not be so timid?
KaCarary Day why do you feel like you lack confidence when you roll?
@@Chewjitsu every time I roll with them, or anyone in the gym, I'm always getting beat. The people are nice and they give me pointers on what to do but I just don't know how to take what I learn when I get beat
KaCarary Day got it. I’ll save it for a video brother
Thanks man!!! Really appreciate you and your videos!! Keep up the amazing work
You gotta get comfortable being uncomfortable....the more you roll(and potentially different people) the more confident you will become "win" or " lose"
I need that shirt
Dont compare yourself to anyone except yourself from 6 months ago.
Nine months later and I just want to make someone tap 😞
It’s been 3 years I hope you have
