When I’m not training at the gym with my teammates, I always try to make time for strength and conditioning training at home. Single muscle exercises are less effective because they don’t account for the dexterity required when training Jiu-Jitsu. This will help to replicate the type of combined muscle movements experienced when training. The best way to build strength for BJJ is by training multiple muscle groups in one movement. Working on your strength, stamina and flexibility are all going to help you be more effective when training. Preparing your body to deal with the stresses and strains placed on your muscles and joints while training is very important for longevity in the art. Grappling is an extremely physical activity. The more movements you’re able to do without thinking, the more you’re able to think about what your opponent is doing and very often anticipate their next steps. It’s very important to work on your muscle memory when training on your own. It is the lifeblood of Jiu-Jitsu and it’s one of the best ways you can spend your time when learning by yourself.Īnother great way to improve your game at home is by drilling positions, transitions, and submissions. Without good software your hardware is useless. The techniques in BJJ can be compared to software on a computer. Understanding the various positions, transitions, defenses, counters, and submissions is crucial for developing and refining your game. Jiu-Jitsu has the widest and deepest curriculum of any martial art. The most important thing you can do to learn BJJ at home by yourself is to study techniques.
