On this episode, Chewy and Eugene discuss a new rule for Jiu-Jitsu. We chat about why you should avoid being a sore loser.

We chat about some of our tournament experiences, why you should avoid posting your frustrations about a tournament on social media, a useful way to get your frustrations out, who to stop being "fragile," how to be less emotionally charged after a loss, the dangers of expectations, how the ruleset of the Chewjitsu Open incentivizes submissions and attacking, the importance of incentive structures instead of punishments, how to deal with a student who shows bad sportsmanship, and the importance of leading through actions.

On this episode, Chewy and Eugene discuss some white belt BJJ tips that came from a Reddit BJJ forum. We break down 8 pieces of advice and discuss whether we agree or disagree with them.

Here is the list:

1. Never date a girl/guy from the gym, (it’s easier to get better when you enjoy the place where you train).
2. Stop trying to win. It makes you get hurt. Just get sweaty.
3. Relax…Jiu-Jitsu is like farting. If you have to force it then it’s probably sh*t.
4. Baby every injury (also tap quick).
5. Technique is everything.
6. Ask questions in person (don’t skip rounds)
7. Recalibrate intensity and err on the side of too easy.
8. 2 x a week for 10 years is better than 2 x a day for 3 years.
