One of the most common questions we receive is managing strength and conditioning programs with BJJ. It's all about balancing stressors to maximize performance. We had a pretty good conversation about it on our latest YT episode.
What's worked really well for me over the past few years is shifting to a conventional full body split style training in the gym to save on stress on the soft tissue and joints.. Staying strong + competing at ultra heavyweight has proven to be a challenge, but definitely doable as long as you optimize recovery. Great video!
