Description
<p>Rose Miller, aka @rosierollz, is everywhere on BJJ Instagram right now because she does something that sounds simple but is actually incredibly rare: she gives simple but helpful advice.In this episode of the I Suck at Jiu Jitsu Show, Rose and I talk about how to actually learn Jiu Jitsu faster, why so many people waste years training without a real plan, and how a black belt thinks about improvement differently than a beginner.We get into her start in Jiu Jitsu, losing a lot early, competing, getting injured, learning how to learn, teaching white belts and blue belts, creating BJJ content, CLA/ecological training, drilling, women leading in Jiu Jitsu, and why starting every round from your knees is probably making your Jiu Jitsu worse.This is not just a “do these 3 moves” episode. This is a conversation about how to train smarter, how to think better, and how to keep getting better at Jiu Jitsu without making your entire life miserable.Follow Rose on Instagram: @rosierollzGet my free ebook The Competitor’s Journey:simplifyingjiujitsu.comGet a free copy of jiu jitsu for imbeciles: bjjmentalmodels.com/isuckSponsored by Datsusara:Use code ISUCK at dsgear.com</p><p><br></p><p>00:00 Intro<br>00:46 How Rose Miller got into Jiu Jitsu<br>03:31 Why Jiu Jitsu gave Rose structure and direction<br>05:28 Starting at Gracie South Bay with elite women<br>08:45 Rose’s first Jiu Jitsu competition<br>11:18 Losing a lot and learning how to learn<br>13:02 Why Rose refused to quit Jiu Jitsu<br>15:09 The original goal of becoming a black belt<br>16:30 What changes when you finally get your black belt<br>18:19 Injuries, COVID, concussions, and loving the process<br>22:01 Becoming a “try-hard hobbyist”<br>25:17 Why Rose makes beginner-friendly BJJ content<br>29:13 Rose’s intention behind creating content<br>34:10 Women leading in Jiu Jitsu<br>40:42 Training in San Diego vs smaller Jiu Jitsu scenes<br>43:56 Cross-training, loyalty, and gym culture<br>47:23 Would Rose be different if she started at a hobbyist gym?<br>49:57 Using competition as a learning tool<br>53:06 Why Rose’s Jiu Jitsu content works<br>57:31 Drilling, CLA, and live training<br>1:04:33 Why CLA people can be so annoying<br>1:07:10 Advice for beginners learning Jiu Jitsu today<br>1:10:27 Stop starting rounds from the knees<br>1:12:34 Why Jiu Jitsu standup is still evolving<br>1:16:37 Is Jiu Jitsu Brazilian or American?<br>1:17:50 Final thoughts</p><p><br></p>
