Synopsis

You have become a fanatic of BJJ, but can’t seem to get your cardio up to par? You have small nagging pains that you can’t seem to get rid of? You are looking into competing but you want to drop a weight class to better your chances? You just want to get fitter and stronger and enjoy every classes as much as possible? Here is your personal plan to gain all the physical abilities that Brazilian jiujitsu requires, and mostly, to help you enjoy rolling without all the little injuries that might be coming your way, if not already well established. This guide was specifically designed, to help the true beginners all the way through the black belts and beyond. It will improve your game, and even, prolong your rolling career for as long as possible. The thing is that you’ve probably heard that strength is your enemy in JITS, that having too much muscle mass can even impair your game and technique, make you less flexible when you need it the most. Those are very ignorant statements when it comes to sports, even more, when it comes to self-defense as if there will only be challenges you can overtake. All you need to know for now is that for this sport, you need a mix of relative strength, functional hypertrophy and at times, muscular endurance. In BJJ, lifting should be considered a plus, as injury prevention and to help gain speed, stamina and yes, strength. You’ll need it when you will be in the absolute division of your next competition. You’ll need it when facing much bigger opponents. You’ll need it when you’ll be facing opponents that have more experience than you, just to survive and hold off chokes and arm bars. You’ll need it more often just to survive. But most of all, if you are a BJJ junkie, an addict, you’ll probably want to roll for as long as life can let you.You probably want that black belt as much as anybody does. To achieve that, you’ll need a lot of guts and glory, with the body that follows. You need to be strong, healthy and wise. A healthy body, a strong mind. The longer you can maintain a good set of muscles, the better and longer you’ll be in this game. What you will need is great habits, a good nutrition plan and a personalized strength training program to add to the mix. The information included in this book will be your personalized guide to roll stronger and achieve the ultimate black belt goal.
