    I started BJJ at 46 years of age and I absolutely relate to this video. I’m always rolling with the young, strong, aggressive types. My strategy is “cooking” them for 2-3 minutes then apply my game. It’s a constant soul searching endeavor to improve while getting older and trying to avoid the injuries that are bound to come playing this art😂

      After 7 years blue belt 3 stripes, technically only 4 years of actually training; I had two horrible shoulder (plus, pulled groin, 3 broken fingers, hamstring pulled, ankle injury etc etc blah blah) injuries from Jiu Jitsu. I've learned to tap early and tap as soon as I'm in any awkward position-period. It's taken me a long time for me to figure that one out. Training is much more fun and I'm able to avoid getting injured by your strong "spazy" white/blue belts. Especially against those types that just yank away after watching a Ryan leg lock video. I hope it helps you to avoid the mistakes that I made.@@GMunoz-oj5zb

    This kid is young, athletic, strong, and new, of course he will be aggressive. I would’ve been the exact same way had I started at 20. He will learn like they all do because the frustration of constantly running into submissions makes them re-evaluate, like he did about 3 minutes in when he was asking you what do I do. Kid will be a beast of once he learns techniques. Nice video

    Just turned 30 and have been training for 7 years. I'm still young but getting to the point where I'm losing patience with over-aggressiveness in rolls. I just get really passive and wait for them to screw up. It's easy enough to capitalize on their mistakes, but getting a stupid injury is just as easy. Good cardio, though.

    I'm a 47 year-old BJJ brown belt and young, hyper aggressive newbies are nothing new. They look at anyone with a higher belt than them as a pelt they can hang on their proverbial wall. They've got nothing to lose and everything to gain. I don't have a problem with it (I was that kid once), but if you really want to take the starch out of them and feed em some humble pie, nothing wears someone out more than a solid top pressure game. Just get on top and slowly crush the life out of them, the best submissions in these situations are any slow choke (head and arm choke, Ezekiel choke, cross choke, papercutters etc). They begin to re-evaluate their life decisions after spending some time in the iron coffin.

    Loved it. Purple here as well. It’s really interesting to see the different approaches. I’m 49 and don’t approach the triangle setups like you do. I really appreciate your approach and entries to the sweeps and attacks. I enjoyed the crap out of watching this as I seem to find myself in similar situations with the young Thundercats.

    I’ve been training around 2 months. This has been my favourite format of video I’ve watched to date so far. Explaining what’s going on as you roll in real-time is really helpful and helps structure the chaos that rolling is for a new guy

    I started when I was 55 years of age and am now 57, I love it and am in the process of continuing to learn to go smooth. Slow is smooth and smooth is fast is a motto I learned when I was starting and it makes sense. There are a lot of 20 and 30 year old guys and girls that train at our Gracie school and those heavy/strong guys can be a difficult roll. Always fun with mutual respect on the mat.

    So glad I came across this channel. I'm not over 50 yet, but I started BJJ last October at the age of 45, so I'm certainly no spring chicken in this sport. It's great to see that technique and patience can overcome a much more "chonologically advantaged" opponent. I'm lucky in that my school has a 40+ class for us aspiring old-timers. But in the open classes, rolling with 20 year olds, some of whom just got done with college wrestling - haha, yeah, it's humbling!

    • @Jitsover50

    @Max.Greger Před 8 měsíci +3

    I think it is a totally normal thing that he uses his strength as he has obviously been very little training. He does not seem to play unfair (use knuckles or gripping your fingers or so) so it's a good roll for both. I felt / did the same way in my early days. You cooked him a little which is clever and you did it properly :)

    • @Jitsover50
      @Jitsover50  Před 8 měsíci +1

    • @vibovitold
      @vibovitold Před 8 měsíci

      of course it's only normal for a white belt to go full force.
      they don't necessarily want to test YOU in particular - they're testing bjj, essentially. does it really work? can the guy truly beat me even if i give it all i've got?
      or is it like ; )
      and they're perfectly within their rights to do so.
      why would they take it for granted that it's legit?
      what's problematic is when they've already got a few months of training under their belt, got their proof, and yet they're still in the berserk mode.
      because
      a) it's a recipe for injuries (both theirs and their partners'),
      b) they're not really developing any game if they keep on spazzing out
      for this reason tiring them out isn't just a (correct) way to beat them, but also to help them grow, since getting them to gas out forces them to slow down and start thinking in terms of technique
      just my two cents. nice roll man!

    Turning 32 this year, training for 3 years. Pre-existing neck issues always weighing me down so i tend to roll with a shockingly similar game to you actually (as a blue belt though). I find our whitebelts are learning not to go full steam pushing forward against me because as soon as one arm goes back or out to base, boom theyre in a triangle XD. I feel we all contribute something to our gyms. Taming the bull in china shop whitebelts haha.

      TBH, I'd say working from your guard on more of a defensive strategy, gives you more time and planning for countering a rushed offense; plus I think it also gasses him out, so now with his strength and stamina spent, it comes down to technique and ability.

    Don't let go of the leg when you do a tripod sweep. Keep the grip and do a technical standup. If you let go, your opponent will be able to get up and at that point the fastest wins.

    I was much the same as this young fella when I started. Aggressive and using energy through strength.
    After a while I was invited to state academy. First thing the coach said was. Before we start, let's roll. I just want to see how you roll.
    I didn't realise what this meant until after when he explained all he wanted to do was see if I was going to come in as a calm person or aggressive.
    His teachings changed my entire experience and made me so much better.

    I am a white belt right now whos 20 years old , just started for 2 and a half months. When I was starting I was just as crazy and aggressive as this guy, which didn't work out for me as I progressed. When I started to be more methodical, it changed my game immensely I finally started getting great sweeps and even some submissions on my more experienced training partners, the fact that I was surviving these rolls and being spending most of the round in more dominant positions like side control and mount really just showed my self I cant just rely on my strength and agility, I actually started to think about the roll like it was chess or some kind of game that required thought. Loving jiu jitsu and definitely love seeing videos like this.

    White belt syndrome. If you're less skilled, I guess it's natural to use athleticism since you can't match in skill. This type of aggression is easier to tame in any type of striking; one nice shot to the face will slow down reckless abandonment.

I don't mind to be tapped, I just want to survive a bit longer than last time. Even 5 seconds more is an accomplishment for me :D
