First time I’ve made a video like this, let me know what you think of the format! Also, if you want me to give you advice on your rolling or competition footage join Jiu Jitsu Lab: www.skool.com/jiujitsu

Bro wasn’t there to take advise 😂 He just there to make excuses

bro is listening but nothing goes in

mans catch phrase is "in my defense" 😂 but props to this guy for having the balls to get roasted so publicly

Blud not going to ADCC lmao

white belt yapping 😂

these kind of videos are great! I’m a blue belt that competes regularly and it helps a lot to see the breakdowns and relates to the thought process while competing

This is really helpful for me to see as a White Belt. Honestly, this is the type of footage that is SO crucial to such an enormous portion of the JiuJitsu community. Watching championship Blackbelt is great for learning what to do... but so much of BJJ in the moment is heuristics; which you NEED a grasp of what not to do in order to develop properly. Props Ishmael for doing this. ON your Cardio question, rolling is great Cardio but it will not develop your capacity in an acute and measurable way. To really understand whether your cardio is getting better I would really recommend learning about Anaerobic Zones, how they feel and differ from each other (running, cycling, swimming, rowing... pick something that is easy to control and recover from)... Analogous to running, if I know what Zone 2 / 3 cardio feels like for an hour, I will eventually build my endurance and efficiency there. Taking that understanding of your resources onto a matt builds incredible confidence and can in a way detach you from the chaos of the moment. I have so many people call time outs on me, before I've ever really began to try; this I believe is similar to Ricksons idea of invisible JiuJitsu.

I just competed yesterday and rewatching it was the worst.

That dude in the 3rd match is definitely nowhere near 165, lol.

He called a DQ a Tap 😢😂

Bro was not 165

If this spaz who doesn't even read the rules or prepare cardio, goes for muffles in scrambles, doesn't know how to even keep hip connection gets to be a ADCC pro that would be a crazy come up

I love these types of videos

Only 10 mins in right now but at this point, I've concluded that my guy is delulu

The closed guard calf slicer should be legal because it makes breaking the closed guard more difficult without threatening a submission. The one on bottom closed guard with a body triangle can also do a modified twister like the one that submitted Anthony Pettis by extending his leg and not get calf sliced. Either ban the body triangle or allow calf slice.

if excuses were a person

Hey josh I'm a purple belt in jiu jitsu and I wanna roll with my fav youtuber you in?

Hi Josh! Nice video! At what times are the calls for your instructional? Preferably I would like them on the weekend!

Great vid as always

You have to let the video play for more than 10 seconds at a time to make it more interesting. Check out how mighty mouse does it for some ideas. This format has a lot of potential

He should stop making excuses and listen to the goat right next to him.

Tough listen, nonstop bs from the white belt

Dude when he was talking about the entry into the legs, there was no space for the entry into the legs. He should’ve just defend it to take down. I think your buddy should just take it a little slow try to understand what’s going on. understand side position side guard, half guard Understand knee slice positions

man josh is actaully really great, bro (ishmail) can have adcc ambition but i think he just needs more of an open mind to embrace valid criticism.

Another weird DQ. This one it seemed like he "deserved" his DQ because he knowingly admitted to breaking the rule but wasn't stopped by the ref. Why did his opponent pull guard with a figure 4 body leg lock? That seems counterproductive almost like a stalemate move? I guess from an "anything goes" (pretty much) perspective of freestyle wrestling with some BJJ it just strikes me as a lot of additional rules for white belts.

Really, like the video

Somethings odd with the sound

What submissions did he do? In the second submission?

Enjoyed the video Josh but I struggled to towards the end. I found myself wanting to click off around the 25 minute mark but stayed for the algo

Your buddy was doing great with corn rows dude. He just should have forced him down again once he shrimped out.

Ish is one of those guys who is technically a white belt but his skill level will win him purple belt medals

Love your buddy's shirt and agree with his shirt.

The corn rows dude could have had a triangle thrown on him by your buddy, but he didn't see or sense it.

status roller

This guy speaks exactly like Kamaru Usman lmao

Bro is just like me😂😂😂😭😭😭😭😭😭

Why would someone reap there teammates

Your buddy didn't lift his right knee (anti BJJ) to block the full mount. He has long legs it would have been an easy stop.

I'm having a hard time with the volume levels. I can hardly understand Ishmael.

w josh

Bro before this guy does an Adcc ternament he needs to do something small like grappling industries or naga

yessir yesssir

He has the same voice as kamaru usman

He talks like kamaru usman

2nd Dq kind of dumb. He calf-sliced himself haha.

10 mins in my advice would be to fight smarter. Try not to get DQ'ed or make moves without having a solid position. Then your game will improve. You do have some solid technique, but your fighting style is too impatient. You should have a bit more conservative fighting style. Exploit each of your opponents mistakes and do not give him any opportunity to improve his position. Do not make moves if the risk of losing is higher, than gaining one or making a sub.

Wow! I sort of agree with your "white belt" buddy that seems like a pretty small hair to split for a DQ? In the real world you aren't going to be thinking in those terms. Hmm.

sound bad. do better.

Please don’t make thumbnails like that. You’re better.
