I spar with this guy in my BJJ class and even if he's under me, he doesn't seem to get out of breath. He's still a white belt, but advanced, 6 months. Anyways, they say that I should learn how to control my breathing and "relax" in a spar. But, how am I supposed to do that when I'm trying to get out of an attempt of getting me into an armbar? I moe around a lot and figet like a fish out of water so that my spar mate won't be able to armbar me or some other move, for that matter. So, how do I "relax"? I noticed that fidgeting around a lot gets you out of breath and very exhasuted in just one randori.
P.S.
I only spar with whitebelts because I won't last a mintue sparring with higher belts.
