On this episode, Chewy and Eugene discuss the video of a 140 lb. teenage BJJ blue belt getting slammed by a 265 lb. purple belt during training.

Chewy gives advice on how to roll with someone that a you don’t know, how the rules engagement in BJJ dictate your reaction and perception of the type of training, whether you can prevent getting slammed in training, why a BJJ belt does and doesn’t matter, having a healthy ego, how experienced practitioners develop body control and awareness, achieving a flow state in Jiu-Jitsu, the ability to relax when being thrown, and if there is an advantage to training slams in BJJ.
