Summary

On this episode of The Chewjitsu Podcast, Chewy and Eugene answer a question from a BJJ coach who feels that he is not improving his BJJ as a coach, and what he can do to get better.

We discuss 5 key ideas:

  1. Do not take on the mindset of the student.
  2. How to structure your rolling to ensure you get something out of it. 
  3. Put yourself in bad positions. 
  4. Travel, invite people to your gym, and compete. 
  5. Use time to study.

We also discuss what changed in Chewy’s training routine that evolved his game, the importance of modeling after successful people, whether you should you know everything as a coach, how to balance giving to your students and working on your own game.
