Hi everyone I just want to remind everyone what the purpose of Jiujitsu is. #jiujitsu is first and foremost a Self Defense. I know many of you get caught up in the sport training, and like to roll with more advanced guys because you tend to get less crazy resistance from them. I get it. However, Jiujitsu’s strength is against non trained fighters/attackers. When I used to have to demonstrate the power and effectiveness of Jiujitsu to the police department, In the early days I would have to roll(physically train with everyone in the room) to get them to see and feel how powerful Jiujitsu is I’m not exaggerating when I tell you that in a typical class there were between 40-60 guys all sizes and strength and I would train with ALL of them one after the other. I was not a black belt, maybe PurPle at the time, 160lbs wet, and never could I even suggest that they go slow or light on me because I was smaller than almost everyone in that room. NO! Instead I would pick the biggest guys in that room and go with them first! I wasn’t cocky, I was confident in Jiujitsu. I knew how to control, neutralize and use leverage to SUBMIT all of them. So the moral of this story is to keep training, don’t get upset with that new guy that used strength on you, and instead remind your self of why you got into Jiujitsu in the first place. To be able to defend guys like that! So stop whining about the hard roll, and keep training, but occasionally it is recommended that you train with that new guy, just to get a sense of how it would feel to have to grapple a regular street person. Keep training everyone! #senseitrillo #bjjforcops #jiujitsulife #selfdefensebjj #trillonation (at Trillo Academy) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqpbzNOA3Nk/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1rd086id03adq
