Helpful Way I Track Progress in BJJ (After 20 Years in Grappling)

The other day I got a comment about whether or not I still feel like I’m getting better. This is an interesting question because after almost 20 years of grappling the rate of progress is slow. Not to mention the fact that progress is always hard to judge anyway. Here’s the comment from Afroeducated on youtube.

“Chewjitsu, after grappling for years and years do you still feel like you are getting better?”

In this video I talk about training a specific technique, movement or whatever it might be. This focused approach to training has been very helpful for me at judging whether or not I’m improving. It allows me to have measurable progress and improvement. I also get motivation from it because as I recognize the improvement it motivates me to continue training.

Here’s the video where I talk about going to both sides which I reference in the video: https://youtu.be/HDowUHDOdmE

Hope the video is helpful. And thanks for the questions and comments.
