The BJJ Position Where White Belts Go to Die
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 июн 2023
- One of the most common messages I get from you guys, specifically the newer grapplers, is about something in the realm of White Belts having trouble with Side Control escapes.
Regardless of your prior grappling experience, White Belts of all backgrounds tend to struggle pretty often escaping side control and just feel stuck.
The tip that I am going to share with you in this video works for side control, mount, or any defensive position, but can be really useful for side control specifically.
This technique/idea made escaping side control way easier for me, and hopefully for you newer white belts watching, or anyone else, it can also be a useful idea that'll help your game too.

"they do all this stuff that the coach never told them"😂
I died when I heard this
Hahahahaha 😂🤣😂
Every coach's worst nightmare 😂
yeah but he didn't tell me what to do either 😂
When I would throw my arms up from bottom my coach would yell, "I didn't teach you that!"
07:13 is where the ultimate wisdom lies. Relaxing and keeping things tight is important but "Adam" is key.
Amazing just how accurate this, once i learned to just chill and do nothing the escapes opened up
It gets frustrating for the top guy if you're getting nothing from the bottom guy. It makes you want to make something happen and then if they are even remotely skilled that's where you end up losing.
Or learn how to apply pressure to the floating ribs while stretching uke's arm in hon-kesa-gatame, to the floating ribs and neck in yoko-shiho-gatame and to the xiphoid process or shoulders and face in tate-shiho-gatame.
Whether uke knows or not how to get out and does nothing to do so, they will have to tap due to the pressure.
I will add, I always tell my students to stop hugging the guy on top, get their arms between themselves and their opponent and to turn onto a side with frames, where they can relax if they need to recover.
My girl also tells me not to panic to last longer
Think about baseballl or maybe just trqnsition from closed guard to half guard for a bit
😂😂😂
I'm 5 sessions in and this is gold, thank you. I'm exactly the white belt you're describing, and will try to keep this advice in my brain on the mat.
When I'm on the bottom I usually wait for the guy in top to move first. It works better than moving right into the position they want you to move into. Instead they have to pick an attack and it's easier to defend an attack you can see coming rather than try and scramble and get caught in something you weren't expecting
100%...plus you are conserving way more energy then fighting like your life depended on it.
Did Adam take a class on how to look like a sociopath? Deadpan stare. Slow, infrequent blinking. Total predator.
amazing jazz hands
I've been thinking a lot about this as a "budget" to help me prioritize low cost options in order to avoid gassing out. Frames are low cost, grips cost more.
This goes right along with the four part video series from Rener and Ryron Gracie entitled Defend, Escape, Control, Submit. If you haven’t watched it, I can’t recommend it enough.
It’s my honest opinion that anyone who has not spent a great deal of time deliberately putting themselves in bad positions so that they can survive and escape has not really mastered the most important part of JiuJitsu.
Bingo.
After a rib injury, anytime anyone even got on my chest was an excruciating time for me even when doing nothing but staying tight. What really helped me out was that I changed my mentality in that I "decided" to never get flattened out in the first place where I have the worst time.
Forget about side control escapes altogether and just always be on my side even if that means I need to turn away or even turtle up. I find that even when I'm facing away, as long as I stay tight and don't give them access to a seat belt grip or a top hook, I'm not actually giving them my back, they're just behind me.
Even when they do get my back, I find that I have a much easier time defending it compared to flat side control since no one is on top of me (and I can breathe lol) especially if I'm diligent in not letting them get their hooks in. Besides, they usually have to pull me on top of themselves to try to get the choke so most of the time I'm on top of them and I can grind into them myself and make them work for it.
When my ribs heal, I'm not even sure I'll go back to how I used to do jiu jitsu since this has been less tiring for me.
Totally agree. I'd rather give my back and defend hooks than be stuck in side control.
Hell I'd rather have both hooks in and defend my neck than be stuck there.
@@bryanfontez wtf it's really not that bad 😂
@@urbansamurai261 it is for me. And my back defense is VERY good. I really don't have any worries when guys take my back. I never get RNC'd and rarely get Bow and Arrowed.
@@bryanfontez just be careful because if someone knows what they're doing you're moving to a very bad position
I got smashed yesterday and my rib is killing me. I’m a new white belt (3 weeks) and it was a brown belt who had no mercy on me lol. I like your comment about changing your mentality… will do the same
As a brand new white belt its quite nice seeing this, as this is exactly what we did yesterday at no gi
Tainan Dalpra had Isaque Bahiense stuck in side control for almost 30 minutes. It is a very tough position to deal with even amongst the absolute best grapplers alive.
Defend. Escape. Control. Submit.
This was an excellent video! Hope you put more stuff out like this!
I'm a blue belt closing in on a purple and this helped me a lot. I still have issues with this position. It's my worst. I'm better than I was but it's still brutal and hell against huge guys.
The hand on the head defence is key, I need to incorporate that.
blue belt here as well and still would rather be mounted than in side control lol
Bro. Id rather give my back with full hooks and a seatbelt. I have more confidence in my back defence than my side control escapes.@@skmfkr2
Hey, it's been a few, have you got your purple belt yet?
I do! Thanks for asking brother. Proud of it and hoping to compete soon.@@SonoraSlinger
This video is so needed. Very nice.
This is one of the most important videos out there. And Adam's input at the end was great! 😊
Excellent advice! Keep up the good work. This helps us white belts a lot because most of the content on RUclips seems to be geared to more advanced grapplers.
Such great 👍🏼 advice - and you can breathe so much better with those frames, which allows you to relax even more…Thanks ❤
As always thank you for the good advice and content sir
❤ more great advice from Chewjitsu💪
This might be your best video.
Step 1 Own your own arms. Step 2. Relax. Step 3. Breathe. Step 4. be patient.
Thanks for the video sir!
I've gone to 3 different jiu jitsu schools in my area and not once did any professor teach me frames, had to learn it from RUclips 😂 I wish they had drilled like you mentioned, being in bottom position and seeing how long you can go without getting subbed, instead of just teaching subs...I got upset with my last coach because they would always coach other students through subs on me and never coach me through any movements, I mentioned it and he said, "There's no subs from bottom". Super frustrating when I'm trying to learn better defense. Thanks so much for your videos, they have really helped encourage me and strengthen my mindset! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
This is really good advice good sir
I've been starting from the side control just to learn how to get out
Super helpful stuff.
Hello. I started bjj about two months ago... i got on sode control and then mounted by my coach... he made me panic i completely freaked out and started doing all the wrong things... felt i was dying... begged the coach to get off from top of me... he was trying to show me exactly what you are showing here only that he is a kind of rought teachings guy... and im a ... rough teachings learner... really helped me to feel what a panic attack is like... i had never had one
Good info
Great stuff
It helps
Thanks
Those jazz hands at the top were next level
great advice
Adam.
Love the title
This is great!!! I feel like you’ve been watching me train and made this for me! Thanks chewy!
Had a guy much bigger than me in top half guard and I just could not get away. All I did was... nothing. After a couple of minutes, he was so tired he just fell over and I took top.
This makes sense
Lol 😂 the guy with the black GI.. he looks so happy. RBF hahahahahha major RBF
For me i tend to die in bottom mount. Bottom side doesn't really bother me all that much. When I am losing the battle of passing guard I try to get an underhook before the settle in.
I've only done 3 trial lessons and 1 with the gym I ended up joining so far. I think I went on the opposite end of the spectrum and got too relaxed when I'm pinned in side control even using it as a rest. But since I've already realized how to stay calm I think that'll be an advantage to think through how to escape, just didn't know the techniques on how to after only a few classes.
The past few months I've started almost every roll every night from side control, I'm starting in the worst position when we free roll. The end state is my defense is solid and my escapes are beautiful, but my offense is lacking real bad 😂.
I learnt most of my submissions by reverse engineering them through defence, you end up understanding not only the submissions but the nature of their control
Thanks for this video, Chewi! This can be my downfall, especially against bigger guys!
It’s the bigger guys that I struggle with. I’m 185 and we’ve got lots of 220+ guys that when they pass, crush me.
Broken down precisely how my professor did last week and he also kept yelling "Stay Connected", and yup if needed do nothing, breathe, think, wait it out . When that lightbulb goes off of staying connected and breathing, keeping things in tight, taking space away, etc? Your brain starts going "Of course it's obvious". lol. Now need to get 1,000 more reps in before it becomes muscle memory lol.
So funny that all the stuff Ryron Gracie had been saying for the last 15 years+ & got ridiculed for, everybody seems to finally be catching up.
A really good four stripe white belt that has great transitions from submission to submission, but he always tries to bench press me off or does the same thing when I do an Ezekial choke. Arm bar city lol
I feel personally attacked >.
What about when top guy transitions to north south when bottom guys hands are in tight?
Well, I'm trying this 'Iron squirrel' technique in the morning.
"Just do nothing, do nothing. No well you gotta do something..."
🙏
@chewjitsu where can I buy that gi?
I dont understand why would you ever panic
Excellent advice!
And damn man, Adam talks a LOT! Tell him to settle down a bit... J/K
Such an actor wasted! "Get there and do nothing!" - "Wait. what?!" :D
Jazz hands!😂
nice
Adam is intense.
As a noob, where I go to die most is beginner BJJ class.
Adam Wilson looks like he's about to murder me lol
Wait, what are you doing to my lapel!
I mean I gave up trying to escape side control and just became aggressive from that position. It's now the biggest part of my game lmao
Adam- "Adam."
Chui I just got my purple belt after 6 years of trianing I’m 19 but I was. Wondering what should I do next on my journey
Learn about capitalization and punctuation. It may come in handy one day.
Go back to class.
As a white belt, I’d have to say mount is where I die most of the time.
Adam looks grumpy today.
What's wrong with the guy on the left? Why does he keep glaring at the camera like he wants to fight it?
Adam
Adam is a Rock Star! I am a 67 year old man, that has tried BJJ (recently) and I guess my brain has slowed down. I can watch the instructor show the move (purple belt) and 30 seconds later I cannot recall what I just saw. I think, my time has past. I do enjoy your vids!
You're not alone. Repetition will penetrate the haze - sometimes it just takes a few more repetitions. Hang in there!
@@ThatguyFirst that was kind, thanks
I think beginning grapplers shouldn't spar or free grapple. Myself personally have had serious injuries all from white belts. They don't know the moves, don't defense, don't know how to pace themselves. I think white and blue should be about building good habits, principles and getting the body conditioned. Then if they are interested in going for black belt or competition then introduce open sparring, some people will just want to learn some basic defense and get a sweat on and that's fine.
💪💯🥰
Against a black belt I die in every position. Every movement I make is receiving a new submission.
Why does your sidekick just stand there and stare at the camera like he's contemplating life?
The famous "Michael Jackson" 😅
Adam is looking 🥰😍❤so handsome
Hey Chewy! Great video and thanks for coming to the Jersey Shore for that excellent seminar. Speaking of defense-oriented grapplers, what are your thoughts on Priit's system? (FYI it's a long video) - ruclips.net/video/a4g6fVOjAG4/видео.html As an older white belt I've been able to use that system to survive a lot longer than I used to, especially against bigger guys and upper belts.
0:47 what was that ? lol
Yeah, these silly white belt mistakes 😂😂 (pushes purple belt out of sight)
I don’t understand why upper belts like to smash white belts. All it does is make for panic attacks and get people to quit BJJ. ESPECIALLY If they’re much heavier. If I were an owner of a BJJ school, I wouldn’t allow smashing because I’d be losing money.
Oh jeez, is "white belt" a trigger word now? Lol
As a white belt I am offended by it. 😁
@@bmstylee "Did you just assume my belt color!?"
white belts matter
You can't say the w-word if you're a higher belt. This word belings to us.
New Sub, ❤ the vid.
bottom mount is way worse than bottom side
