On this episode, Chewy starts off with a ramble on a question he received. The question comes from an older grappler who asks about being surpassed by younger grapplers in the gym and having doubts about his ability, progress, and is it worth it to train BJJ and keep pushing forward?

The second part of the podcast is a Youtube Live Q&A session where we address questions such as:

What instructional videos does Chewy recommend?

Has Chewy ever had an instructor make fun of him because he wasn't good at BJJ?

What are ways to motivate yourself and push yourself to train harder?

How do you go from drilling a technique to hitting the technique in live rolling/training?

Would Chewy ever do a satellite or affiliate gym?

Can you start training jiu-jitsu if you are an amputee?

Can you be effective training BJJ 2-3 times per week?

Quick tips for first tournaments?

What solo drills to work on for takedowns?

Is wrestling or BJJ better for MMA?

How to set up techniques and escapes in BJJ when you are the smaller grappler?

How to improve hip mobility?

Should you care about your rank in jiu-jitsu and is rank meaningful?
