A tough round with a young blue belt

In this narrated video I am rolling with Super Mario again! I have rolls with him from when he was a good white belt. Now he is a good blue belt! He is around 20 years younger and a little heavier with a solid Jiu-Jitsu IQ. I will provide the links to our prior rolls in the description.

Great videos! Just started rolling at 41 and look forward to your videos every week! The way you explain/breakdown the rolling is very helpful and you make it look easy. Thanks!

Thank you! Welcome to bjj!

I've stepped up my training to 3-4 days per week (one hour classes with 10-20 minutes of rolling). Your advice is helping me enjoy rolling more. Thank you.

[@Jitsover50]

That's awesome! Going easier means more training days!

@@Jitsover50 Thanks. Today i rolled with a 6'1", 200 lb. white belt. I'm 142, 5'6" and 74 yo white belt. He didn't submit me and I wasn't gassed after. Eventually I might be able to put up some offense with improved skills.

@@chuckduncan9098 offense comes after defense. It sounds like your doing great.

[@RaveyDavey]

At c.5:50 - if you'd stopped him getting your neck, you reckon he would have managed to force top half later? Looks like his subsequent progress is very much dependent on that grip?

[@Jitsover50]

I normally would have fought that grip. Instead I fought the legs to create space and bring my knee back in. Agreed subsequent progress is totally based on that grip

Still love to listen to you comment. Two advices for that joyful blue belt (I love his attitude). :Like every real good boxer has a jab. The real boxer who knows what to do will set up his stuff with jabs. The real boxer who has no clue how to boxe his partner, will throw a couple of 20, 30 or 50 jabs per rounds, and things will happend. In BJJ, this young guy needs a jab (guard passing). Maybe learn, drill and train couple of guard passing so that when he freezes like he did, just guard pass.Guard passing is a big bang for the buck move in grappling, it pays a lot of benefits even when you are clueless. That joyful blue belt faints a lot, I assume he never wrestled. Faints are there to lule of full your partner into committing. Never faint too fast, unless you throw in a dozen various faints to over-stimulate your partner's sensors and eventually create great openings. Now, when you faint combine with guard passing, you eventually force your partner to committing to turn or defend the wrong side. Things get interesting from there. Please hand him these tips from me. See ya.

I will convey your thoughts and agree sir!
