When the coach is rolling and telling you and someone else what the correct thing to do is as he’s doing it ….you’re gonna have a bad time 😅

[@malachitucker3234]

That’ll humble you real quick lmao

[@davekapka1677]

Somehow it still never fails to amaze me to see how skilled practitioners can make it look so effortless against much larger opponents. Great video!

[@ConveyApp]

I’m 5’ 4” 190 lb guy. I did BJJ for 4 years quit for 18 years, came back late 2019 ish. I have been doing strictly no gi 3-4 times a week for the last 2 years now. I’m a mid level blue belt. Recently my professor started paring me with this 3-4 striped white belt, 51 year old 6’ 5”265 lb guy. He is on the edge of blue belt. What an experience and exceptional opportunity to get my technique on point. If I don’t do the technique, just about perfect, I pay for it and fast….

[@TylerSpangler]

Those are the best kind of partners. Hold on to them while you can! The further people go, the more people quit! Great that you have him to work with mate

[@flowerswerewarpaint646]

If u didn't quit, you'd be an OG blackbelt

[@ConveyApp]

@@flowerswerewarpaint646 Thanks for the encouragement. Greatly appreciated.

[@ConveyApp]

@@flowerswerewarpaint646 I’m a (1) striped blue belt, I got that strip in February of 2021. I was unbelievably fortunate, not knowing it at the time. Carlos Machado handed me my blue belt in May of 2002, he is a legit OG. I trained as a mediocre blue belt for about a year, got injured in front of my girlfriend, later becoming my wife. I quit because of a bad shoulder separation. My entire life was falling apart about 3 years ago. My marriage, business, health were in the tank and I said screw it I would rather die on the mat than my bed. Today everything has turned around. My marriage is just about repaired, business is close to being sold, and I dropped 40 lbs and got jacked. Relatively speaking. I’m the healthiest I have ever been. I am 5’ 4” 185lbs and getting lean. My professor told me 2 months ago I’m up for promotion and he has been testing me and testing me, with a variety of partners, particularly this big dude. I might get stripped up, and potentially my purple at the next promotion. I’m super stoked.

[@bobbyg-lord4873]

I loved that part emphasising the under hook. Brock made going from side control to the back look so simple and effortless.

[@gregmau7557]

Brock is an absolute beast 😂 Biggest challenge is difficult to pin right now,being so dang new to bjj, but I'll say that I have a lot of trouble rolling with bigger partners when they get me in side control. I have trouble escaping, and often revert to relying on strength, which opens me up for a submission or another bad situation 🤙

[@iblzs227]

My biggest challenge is the 15 years of neglecting my health. I started jiu jitsu Oct 2021 and have made huge improvements, but there's so far to go. I know it's a marathon, just sucks dealing with a bunch of constant small injuries. My gym is amazing though with support and team focused which is the only way I've kept after it.

[@dravenwag]

I've been doing it 6 years now and I get injured pretty consistently still! But the more I consistently go, the less I get injured because my body gets more used to the physicalness and the more I'm able to feel when I'm about to get injured, and tap or not exert as much effort into doing something that might hurt me. keep going!! It gets easier

[@hiddenblessingyogaandwelln8672]

take it progressively my friend, find the line between pushing yourself and pushing yourself too much /too often and getting injured / micro injured. "Progressive Loading." 💜

[@ozmanuk]

Hi Tyler big love from New Zealand - Im an aged white belt doctor who never got the time to get good at BJJ (sad face). The muscles that squeeze the legs together are ADductors. those that spread them apart are ABductors. referencing approx 3:25 in the video - Thanks again you and the team are great!

[@kevint4673]

Biggest challenge was staying healthy and finally getting my blue belt! Started BJJ in 2010, but after moving/university/surgeries/injuries/jobs I finally started again last June and got my blue belt in 5 months at my first real academy! Now I'm working on finishing submissions more often

[@tool4rage434]

Biggest issue: Starting out older (40) w/ some chronic back issues I'm trying to correct. I know injury is a possibility in endeavors like this but I'd like to avoid turning an acute issue into something severe and rack up costly medical bills.

In the middle of this video the thought of your…”Here’s Brock….and here’s what he is known for!” -Cue clip of Brock running around the ring videos….coupled with the respect you’re giving Brock in all videos like this….made me laugh too hard. I actually spit up on myself. I love the attitude in the gym. Bar none.

[@edbroggi]

Brock is great doing his own commentary during the role.

[@cregenda]

Hip *adductors. Great vid. I loved Brock's hulk face on that last submission haha

[@Kaizsu_]

At around 3:24 you said 'abductors' when I think you meant to say 'adductors'. Abduction is the opposite motion to squeezing your hips together.

[@zadkiel242]

"OK but let's start with me laying on my back." LOL

[@trxscreed]

Biggest challenge has been staying injury free. A little over 3 years in and I've had separated ribs, dislocated fingers, popped elbows, separated AC joint (this one is still giving me issues 2 years later).

[@zaidhussain9123]

tap faster.

[@MannyMuskets]

My biggest problems in general are flexibility, gas tank, and remembering the details necessary to finish a submission Also I just recently realized that one of my favorite side control positions only works on people smaller than me. I thought I had good control but when the big guys returned to the gym they could all just sit up and push me away.

[@NoBody-ro3xj]

What side control position?

[@MannyMuskets]

@@NoBody-ro3xj My head is pointed to their feet, usually because they have a strong straight arm frame keeping me away.. I use my arm closest arm to control their hips by pinching their whole waist in a shotgun grip, my closest knee is on/by their shoulder to prevent them from turning in to me and I'm using my opposite foot as a base to push against them (think 90-90 hip stretch position).. The knee on the shoulder keeps small guys pinned but big guys will just do a sit up and knock me over with their frame

[@NoBody-ro3xj]

@@MannyMuskets word I got you

[@NoBody-ro3xj]

[@MyCommentsRMaturelol]

Thank God finally something to help me understandddd

[@JustinAnthonyHamilton]

I'm always trying to remind myself to establish underhooks instead of reaching for the head when I don't have the best control and getting stretched out. This video has many great examples of underhook dominance.

[@heimdallr7573]

Great video! Could be ccol to see exactly how he did that straight armbar to the guy in turtle.. I love all this tricky sneaky stuff that I see on youtube . Can never make it work in the gym though XD

[@josephfelder33]

My biggest struggle is timing and putting it all together. I have been training BJJ+MMA for about a year, and MMA for 6 months previously. I am usually training with people that have been training longer than me, and I am doing better; lasting longer, escaping more, getting smashed less. I also try to be offensive, but usually by the time I see an opportunity and go for it, my partner is 1 step ahead of me and defending already, or worse has baited me.

[@youngandstonedd]

Well if your rolling or sparring with people better than you it's common to lose like any sport just foucs on how they beat you and ask them for advice and dont feel bad if your stupmed Brock isn't so good cause he was born like that it took time

[@teejay3082]

[@honeyhole411]

For me, the biggest challenge was getting my blue belt… For a while I wanted it so much that I couldn’t even enjoy the training anymore, the only thing I cared about was getting the belt. However, once I got it, I experienced a sort of relief, and since then I found myself enjoying BJJ more than ever. Whoever says belts don’t matter is lying. They do when you’re a white belt. No one wants to walk around with a sign that says “beginner”.

[@bobsmith8124]

And it’s a the most important one for financial reasons for a gym, they tend to hang that one over their students heads more than ever

[@tylerlowdell6032]

I like being a white belt tbh don’t want a blue 😂

[@honeyhole411]

@@tylerlowdell6032 to be honest I didn’t have an issue with the white belt itself. After about 1.5 years in my coach wanted to promote me and he made sure I knew it, but I moved to another country, where I needed to wait for another year to get my belt, even though I was already hanging out with the blue belts. I remember, it felt like injustice at the time. I think if coaches - are consistent with the striping - are clear about what they expect from you, and - promote based on technical ability the white belt journey can be quite an enjoyable one. Unfortunately mine wasn’t.

[@tylerlowdell6032]

@@honeyhole411 yeah I’ve been a white belt for a long time probably about 6-7 years if you include the 2-3 years off at various times for injury and covid and I’d quite happily just stay a white belt forever 😂

@@honeyhole411 well said. That is clearly for financial reasons... the gyms know it’s the most important one for an intermediate beginner students pride. It is an injustice, that’s why Gracie gyms have an exam for blue belt.

Hey Tyler, bbj blue belt here. Been training for about 2 and a half years. I want to get really good at baseball bat chokes similar to how you got good at guillotines. Should I focus on that or should I keep focusing on escaping? What do you think?

[@mattodorr]

New white belt just starting out, less then one month of training. Just wondering if you have to think when you go in the offensive or if it is just mussel memory?

[@paragon1782]

Can you break down that straight armlock counter to the single leg from turtle? That was super slick

[@jeep1927]

My biggest problem is dealing with size. Everyone is much bigger than me, I’m 140lb and every adult at my gym is at least 175lbs also tournaments in my area for the blue belt level are always under 160lbs for the lowest weight class. When I do find someone my size I do great.

[@tonytorres1624]

I remember Brock Larsson in WEC,UFC and others.

[@Ballzorz]

My biggest issue right now is always getting hurt. My ring finger knuckle has been swollen for a few weeks and both my elbows hurt and I have warm them up in order to fully extend them.

[@F4t4l_5h0t]

Biggest challenge is the switch from a Judo mindset to a BJJ mindset. I am a reactive player in Judo and capitalize on others mistakes, where as in BJJ I cannot do that... as I am the mistake.

[@gianttigerfilms]

That Master Bait though.... 1:25

[@djdarrenrv]

THX!

[@flamezombie1]

Not a BJJ guy, but my biggest difficulty in catch wrestling and ringen (historical German wrestling) has been being the smallest guy. I'm 5'10" 140 pounds, and I'm the most experienced, but I need it when some of my partners outweigh me by 100 pounds. There are some times where I feel like my weight is distributed perfectly, and I just get swept like I'm nothing haha. But it's a great experience, because that makes you really know when you've straddled someone twice your size in mount that you're doing a lot right.

[@mexicanpanda510]

What is your biggest bjj challenge? Me 2 months into jiu jitsu: yes

[@dr.wesrich]

The toughest thing I have found during my jitz career is that I keep decimating the skeletal system of my opponents and training parters. I am trying very hard to decrease my grip strength via every avenue possible…but to no avail. Do you have a solution??

[@CriticallyGnart]

[@gamer8622]

My biggest challenge is cardio. I'm 5'8 171lbs, I got a 4pack but def not a 6pack so I'm decent sized guy for my height. I have asthma and its allergic asthma at that so any inclosed space, like under someone for ex, is just unbearable and incredibly hard to deal with compared to other ppl. I do a ton of steady and heavy cardio but no matter what I do I can't seem to roll longer than 60mins before I'm fully and irrecoverbly gassed

[@kuhlbeans]

[@crzabjj]

I am a 47 year old 2 stripe white belt. My biggest challenge by far is getting my guard passed especially by much younger and more athletic guys in the gym. I frame but I am still not able to keep them from controlling my head and in turn me. Then poor pin escapes. Love the channel.

[@josephfelder33]

Necromancing here, but I was having the same problem as a 35 year old guy with a lot of muskuloskeletal damage from 15 years of Soldiering rolling with 18 and 19 year olds. I simply couldn't move as fast as them. I asked my Coach about it, and he said "You don't need to move as fast as them. Slow them down or make them take you with them with your grips." Then he showed me how, and it made all the difference. I will grab a tight sleeve grip and roll it knuckle-down to anchor it, and a same-side collar grip nice and tight. They are hard to strip, and strong enough that if they try to pull away I go with them. It really slows them down a lot. The other go to that I like a lot is going two-on-one with a sleeve grip and pinning their hand to the matt, using it as a pivot point to spin around to their back or flank on the same side. That's my "Slow-Guy Jiu Jitsu"
