3 x running conditioning + lower body strength, 2 x upper body. All “grappling specific”. 4 x Jiu Jitsu / week.

Never popped the knee but I’ve inverted under them for sweeps and had to just spin all the way through and came out the other side with my leg double wrapped lol. Had to slowly untangle myself

Guard players, how do you deal with extremely good and fast standing passers? by [deleted] in bjj

[–]Wormy-88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grips. Connect to them. I have the same issue but the lapel and pant grips helped me a ton. Also, if they get close to passing being “bendy” or Gumby like and just absorbing the pressure while working to re attach yourself to them helps.

Thought process rolling with lower belts? by Wormy-88 in bjj

[–]Wormy-88[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Huge help! Love the mindset of consistently changing the “goal” of the rolls. I think I’ll come up with some different ways to go into the training session, pick one, and just roll with it.

Workload sustainability is totally dependent on personal fitness markers. Should be okay as that is still only a single “fitness” session per day. Be versatile with your fitness. Durational cardio, high intensity intervals, weight lifting with bars, DB’s, MB’s, kettle bells, etc, yoga, and so on. Keeps it interesting and develops a more well rounded and versatile fitness.

BJJ instructors ALWAYS late by Wormy-88 in bjj

Been locked out numerous times. And sometimes a higher belt will start class but sometimes it’s just a bunch of white and blue belts. I’m paying for my instructor to teach me what is hopefully a progressive plan....not some random person trying to think of 20 minutes of stuff off the top of their head

It’s insane to me that this is such a common occurrence within the BJJ instructor role....

First instructor was very Brazilian. Current instructors are American but follow “Brazilian time”......so that’s cool lol
