Do's & Don'ts For Using A Grappling Dummy (Grappling Smarty 2.0)

Are you thinking about purchasing or using a grappling dummy? If so, this video will help you learn some of the most common do's & don'ts when using a grappling dummy.
In this video, I'll be using the Grappling Smarty 2.0. This BJJ grappling dummy is one of the better ones on the market. It's great for various drills and workout options.
It can be challenging to practice Jiu-Jitsu outside of an academy, but learning how to use a grappling dummy is better than not doing anything at all.

I bought one of these for the covid lockdown, ( see my review on their web site) and even though my bjj club is open again, I'm still glad I bought it. Somedays, you just wanna drill at home. Some people think a dummy is useless as it "doesn't fight" back, (which is true) but we don't tell boxers the heavy bag is useless because it "doesn't hit back" do we?

[@RapatipatooO]

exactly this is very handy to just memorize the technique for me, because i dont have the time to go to class 3-4 times a week, usually 1 time or maybe 2 times a week. And as a white belt i will have the issue forgetting the techniques, which this dummy comes in very handy, this way i will remember them much better

[@eddiewright5921]

I agree! The same way wing Chun practitioners approach the use of a wooden dummy. I use my grappling during the week to help with muscle memory to reinforce the steps of a technique I learned during class that week.

[@abefroman879]

This was very helpful. Thanks

[@EffectiveMartialArts]

Nice, thanks for sharing! So important to anticipate the most common reactions to develop flows. Great advice! :)

[@tyroncombate7580]

Thank you nice video..im new subscriber

[@user-kw5gy3ti9d]

Have you compared it to the pro boxing grappling dummy?

[@Letsgowarriors2023]

What size is that smarty 2.0 that you are using? How tall are you? I’m 5’10 (210 lbs) and my daughter is 5’6 (130 lbs). Is the regular smarty too small for me?

[@allighast9714]

Do you ever think a Small person could jump on you on you, or otherwise provoke an altercation?

[@ChasenHill]

Do you use a grappling dummy?

[@ChasenHill]

I agree it's one of the best I've personally used! I'm in the same boat because I teach and train frequently. But I've had students who can't make it to class as much, because of life, work, or became injured get a lot of benefit from it. It's a good safety net to have!

[@markcastelino9642]

Yes I have 1 and think it is great as a beginner to practice drills at home(Where I can be more relaxed and not embarrassed if I make mistakes). As you said I can drill moves over and over at home,then it is in my memory and muscle memory when i drill it in class. Now I must search good instructional videos for dummy drills now . Thank you

[@ChasenHill]

Thanks for sharing! I've thought about filming some instructionals of my favorite drills, I'm just not sure what the demand is. Would you be interested in something like that?

[@markcastelino9642]

@ChasenHill Yes I would like 1 very much, something I can follow and learn from.

[@ChasenHill]

Interesting, cool! Thank you for letting me know!
