Love how open you are to learning from all aspects of grappling and being humble while doing so with no ego! Learning so much from watching all your judo stuff too. Love your channel keep up the great content!
its funny how the best ufc fighter with a wrestling background are better than the best ufc fighters with a jijitsu background like islam vs charles for example
@@malachi6336 Islam has elite level Jiu jitsu. The Dagestanis have a great program for grappling as a whole. Part of that sambo culture on that side of the world. I believe their success has a lot to do with variety of training they grow up doing
That wrestling grind is noticeably so different from jiujitsu. Just an absolute refusal to accept bottom position in any scenario, even if you've just been flipped across your head. Its really quite inspiring, I hope I can take some of that spirit into my jiujitsu competition this Saturday 🤞
dude wrestling practice is no joke, its BRUTAL, gets you gassed even when your not even in the conditioning setting of the season yet. im a freshman in high school, havent wrestled wince 3rd grade. when i left yesterday i was scared to go back.
Keep in mind all that sparring was AFTER over 2 hours of training 🤯 I’m so glad I sat out haha Shoutout to Martin, legacy, Ruby, the coaches and especially those wrestlers. Awesome energy in the room. Was insane!
I remember a wrestling practice where we had our first "King of the Mountain", I was a Freshman, generally hated myself--and I won. It helped change me so much. I remember walking home from practice that day actually feeling confidence and comfort in myself for once. Wrestling is a sport that changes physical health and wellness, but can also provide mental and emotional stability under the right circumstances for the right wrestlers. That perfect blend of competitive sports and martial arts makes it one of the greatest disciplines, thanks for paying it some respect.
I loved this video it was so entertaining and I had a blast recording for you! My heart was racing watching you wrestle against the coaches but they were super kind and awesome humans!
Great video man! I’m also a competitive purple who NEVER pulls guard.. but now I’m reminded of how much more technical wrestling I need 😅 Also, everyone there were such great partners, and showed they had no ego and nothing to prove. Great to see, especially from such a young group of teens. Looking forward to the next video!
As a 37 year old purple belt the inspiration in this challenge is major to me. I have a huge appreciation for wrestlers and their tenacity. For you to put yourself out there is respectable. Eventually I would like to do a similar challenge.
@@joshbeambjj things such as them competing more and also because BJJ is mostly people above the age of 20 where as high schoolers usually act very different to adults. It’s also that everyone there is usually there for the same goal of doing well at tournaments whereas jiu-jitsu everyone has their own goal for example some just want to be physically healthy where as some want to compete and I can name a few more but that’s just off the top my head
I just LOVE this! In the 90’s when I was 30 years old training Judo, Sombo and BJJ I went back and trained a couple days a week with my old HS wrestling team. It was SO much more fun than when I was a teenager! Adults make better students. :)
Funny thing is Mark Zuckerberg actually been training MMA and BJJ recently , he probably also practiced some wrestling as well to help with takedowns .
Wish I had this training available near me. These kids are fortunate. My BJJ school does incorporate takedowns and we do wrestling only sparring but not at this level
This is the type of content you were doing when I first subbed. Love it. I know it's some serious behind the scene work. Appreciate the effort. I was watching a BJJ Globetrotters with a Greco guy. He highlighted that you can stand tall and defend the shot. Different styles make things fun.
Appreciate you watching and commenting as always! Oh cool, is it the spring camp 2023 series? (That’s what pops up when I search Globetrotters Greco lol)
I wish I had some wrestling gyms near me, I live in the UK in a small town so it's quite difficult finding a space like this. I wish the UK had a wrestling curriculum for kids cuz I wouldve definitely taken it up in my youth.
I mean i understand the sentiment, but that number is ridiculous. Its not 99%. Id say anything between 50% to 60%. My entire gym has stand up/takedown elements of in our bjj classes. Roughly 90% of the bjj students in our gym can take on, and in most cases beat the average high school wrestler. Its only some gyms that don't focus on stand up. But certainly its not 99%. Particularly gyms with gracie lineage. Sometimes we'll spend entire classes focusing on stand up elements. But yeah there are still way too many gyms that don't focus on it, when they should. But it's definitely not 99%.
wtf are you on about? He did a good video for his youtube channel. Why would you think 99% of BJJ players wouldnt wanna do a wrestling practice? This is just some stupid thing you're repeating.
HEMA guy who just started my BJJ journey. Right after my second class they had the wrestling class. Fairly certain it is for college wrestling. Their warmup was no joke at all. Most of these guys are built bulky and wide and they were doing handsprings at one point, flawlessly I might add. Ive got to get in on that.
When I started Judo, since I was so much bigger than the rest of the class, the instructor had me partner with wrestlers majority of the time. In the early weeks, we only "sparred" on the ground until our throws and break falls improved, so I ended up rolling with wrestlers at the end of class after the judo drills and picking up some wresling tips as well 😂
Have you found a sambo place yet? So, yeah I go with high school wrestles from time to time. It’s so much fun! I am a terrible wrestler considering I’m a Judo/BJJ guy. But I always learn really cool things from the coaches and kids and always have a really fun work out! Wrestling is great!
Hey Josh; really love the judo content and I know you entered a tournament. Do you think you could do more tournaments or real fights? I saw an in house tournament recently and there was a beast of a woman who came 2nd in a grouped division because not enough women/competitors in that weight class. She won her fights with a brilliant timed foot sweep, newaza and one competitor injured himself (he landed on his head while attempting to throw). I remember the video you did with the open mat sparring but you didn’t want to use force. I’m really curious how you’d do if you faced a woman like that. She’s just about big enough (your size) so you can’t really rag doll her but she was great with timing whereas in your tournament you were out manovered into a throw. Would love to see how more fights for you would play out; different ways to win or lose
@@joshbeambjjThanks! I just checked them out, from the product pictures alone they look the best I've ever seen! I'm going to order a set. Great video and thanks again :)
Very awesome!!!! But have to say: My high school wrestling practices started with us running 6 laps in the hallways of our very long 3 story school (3 flights of stairs x16.. or 15 maybe, stink at math & can't remember) & then (not to be THAT guy!.. but..) were harder this I didn't see any live positional drilling with the loser needing to do pull up, or firemans races, or suicides.. Dang i miss wrestling.
Dude it was baaaaaad the next day… and the following few days after that 😂 so bad. Especially after the back flip at the end, tore my abs up as the icing on the cake.
Josh, if you don’t have the wrestling standup technique, trying to match it with the same bent over style with end with you losing to guys with decades of experience using it. You beautiful vertical stance can be used against wrestlers; you just need to keep the stand either far away or a tight close grip. Most wrestlers don’t have any standup except a lateral drop or head lock, so if you develop one or two throws both forward and backwards, you will back most people terrified to tie up except judoka, Sambist, or Greco guys. Yanking an opponents head up from the chin is a great way to defend the legs and get your under hooks. Watch how Jason Morris became a collegiate all American wrestler only using just throws. ruclips.net/video/LHJmmRy3vCw/видео.htmlsi=Lb4ighm70hupf6hO
To this day, whenever I have to do something challenging I remind myself “I made it through wrestling, I can do anything”
Can you do college wrestling next? 😅
You really want me to die huh 😵💫 actually I do know a few folks who maybe could get me the connect 🤔
@@joshbeambjj Do it for us
@@joshbeambjj If you really wanna die get into a Iowa Hawkeye wrestling practice
Where did you learn how to have such fire cinematic shots
It was nice knowing you 😢@@joshbeambjj

As a 29 year old BJJ black belt and former high school wrestler. I commend you, these kids are no joke nowadays
Yeah, wrestling is awesome.

@@malachi6336 if you out Charles and Islam in a straight grappling match, it would be extremely competitive.
@@aspenbutler4414 it was an mma fight everything was allowed punching, wrestling, kicking, and grapling

It's like the difference between setting up into position and forcing position

Great video! Thank you for coming by. Looking forward to see you takedown your next opponent!
Of course, thanks so much for having me, hopefully I did y'all justice in the video! I'm def looking forward to trying 😂

One thing that I noticed from going from BJJ to wrestling my freshman year is that its not only harder but its also a very different culture.
How so?

That’s so awesome. Looks like a program I’d put my kids in. Good culture. Wish I had a wrestling foundation to back up my Jiu Jitsu.
Commenting here as well, outstanding production and content. One of the best martial arts channels on YT.
Appreciate that brother!
Very fun video. You should do the same with a college practice to compare the two..
The mark Zuckerberg wrestler dont exist, the Mark Zuckerberg wrestler:
Funny thing is Mark Zuckerberg actually been training MMA and BJJ recently , he probably also practiced some wrestling as well to help with takedowns .
Nice bro!! Way to try something new and have an awesome experience
After today Josh, everything in your life will be easier!
Bros actually so lucky to get a water break
The video I was anticipating thankyou hope you enjoyed it as much as judo
Great video! Keep up the content man! Wrestling is super fun to watch.
Great video! High school wrestlers are no joke! Congrats on training with them and not dying!
Keep training with this club... Your game is gonna grow leaps and bounds

Much respect... that was awesome!
Hey thanks man, good to see ya around int he comment section again!
Ngl, this is the most laid back wrestling practice I’ve ever seen
I love knowing coach was ur drilling partner, but he was going too easy on you
I have some high school wrestlers in my BJJ school and I definitely spar with them after classes for extra tips on wrestling
You did something that 99% of BJJ players who've never wrestled would be scared to do and never try. Respect for that
I mean i understand the sentiment, but that number is ridiculous. Its not 99%. Id say anything between 50% to 60%. My entire gym has stand up/takedown elements of in our bjj classes.

Great video, first time ever seeing you. Everyone was so nice and welcoming
I wish I could wrestle, its definitely the hardest sport in the world

Omg I live in the Bay Area and one of those coaches has been a referee at my matches back when I was in middle school.
Amazing episode and amazing gym!!
Subbed for the judo vids but your quality of videos have kept me watching
This is an incredibly entertaining video!
EPIC. can we talk about that bass in the open???
thanks dude! hahaha inspired by christopher nolan... 😂
That cradle coach hit you with @24:03 absolutely filthy 🥶
I feel like you got better from this one practice. Imaging this a couple times a week for a prolonged period of time
Have you found a sambo place yet?
So, yeah I go with high school wrestles from time to time. It’s so much fun! I am a terrible wrestler considering I’m a Judo/BJJ guy.
But I always learn really cool things from the coaches and kids and always have a really fun work out!
Wrestling is great!
Very good video, as a judoka who grapples, I really enjoyed your judo vids too
Go to Gilroy High for a practice next
Lol!
please do more wrestling vids
I love how half the kids just talk to you like an annoying tourist
Hahaha I know right 😂
Those teens definitely thought you were an old man after slipping your hip 😂

Love the video but the loud music during the sparring? Would be much better with just the regular audio.
thanks for watching! appreciate the feedback, will keep it in mind!
Great video Josh!
hey thanks jared appreciate that! good to see ya here
The guy in the blue shirt and shoes is my coach at glileo
Bro, this content is amazing. I’d love to see a Collab with you and Sensei seth ICY Mike or Jesse Enkamp
Thanks! Guess what… I’m going to Stockholm next week 👀
That looked like amazing fun!
Now imagine being a heavy weight
Slippery mats are a major health issue in no-gi. Most coaches are totally dismissive of the problem.
More wrestling videos 🙌🏼
Imagine facing all your teammates during tournaments 😂
Your channel is great.

I like your energy josh

You are a brave soul. I cannot begin to imagine what it felt like the next morning 😅

I’m not even sure how he made it to training the next morning. Weirdo.
@jordancoe5593 me neither 😭😭😭
Wrestling was like getting thrown into the deep end and they just keep throwing weights instead of a ring 😂
Such a good way to describe it lol
@16:35 the double underhook also seemed like he was preparing a double overhook suplex! great video Josh :)
Thank God I didn’t get suplexed 😂 lol thanks Phu
You look like a skinny sensei seth
U should try greco too
You got to wrestle with Zuckerberg 😅😂
Duddddde I forgot I had to go to a big 5 for my first pair of wrestling shoes as well 😭😂
Now do a wrestling tournament
Very small wrestling room...are those even wrestling mats? There are no boundary marks or neutral starting position marks.
It’s a multidisciplinary martial arts gym (self defense, BJJ)
