    You are making amazing videos❤❤❤❤ I noticed your CZcams channel and you're doing great! I have seen all your videos and your content qualities are excellent but still it is not delivering the right audience due to SEO problems. Focusing on your SEO to get a big fanbase would be best. I have some ideas on how to boost your audience and engagement. Would you like to talk about it for a while? Let's talk and I'll share my strategies with you.

    What are some takedowns and things I can learn for rolling against people bigger than me I got tossed around lol

    • @NavigatingTheMats
      @NavigatingTheMats Před měsícem

      Hey Tristan! In the beginning don’t get discouraged if that happens. Ask your partner what they did and try to get some feedback. Against bigger opponents it’s important to attack their base and off balance them. Look for foot sweeps, outside singles, and sacrifice style takedowns. But they all require time and lots of practice!
