Planks are great, and core strength endurance is vital. But what about pure strength? I.e. holds of 10-15s?
This is a combination of adding more instability, by going on one leg, and adding more resistance. I like using the weight belt, as I trading at the crack of dawn without a training partner to place a weight on my back. Make the place of the weight is as close to the hips as possible, so the hips are taking the load and not the spine.

Muscle imbalances occur not only in BJJ, but from life in general. Most of the things that we do throughout the day places us in a forward head and rounded shoulders posture as well as a bent trunk along with bent knees and hips.
A great way to think about muscle symmetry is to stretch the areas that are tight (neck muscles, pec, front of the hips, and hamstrings), while strengthening the areas that may not be activated as much (back of the shoulders and shoulder blade musculature, glutes, and outer hips).
These are just general guidelines and just because muscle are tight does not mean they are strong and vice versa, muscles that are stretched/loose are not necessarily weak, but these are just general guidelines so take this information with the idea that there are variables and not absolutes when discussing posture and muscle symmetry.
Here are a few of the videos I recommend but there are plenty on my page and other pages so feel free to explore and see what works!
Also, check out my e-Book for healthy shoulders, which is a good place to get some solid stretches and strengthening exercises as well!

Experimentation is key if you want to get better at anything.
I’m experimenting with this kind of planche lean as assistance work along with my tuck planche. Yes, there are step-by-step programs out there. Yes, I recommend following them. Yes, Foundation Strength on BJJStrength.com is a great step-by-step strength program for BJJ……. but, sometimes you need to throw in a little experimentation of what works uniquely for you and your body. Most people fall within the middle of a bell curve. So, most things work for most people…..but, a little dash of something different can help you break through PHYSICAL and MENTAL plateaus.

For leg pushing strength, this is my go to exercise. Why?
This exercise requires good stability, balance, co-ordination, range of motion and of course strength. It’s a true ‘biggest bang for you buck exercise’. It’s also, I find, easier to do weighted because the counterweight helps with the balance. My goal is to get a good unweighted pistol too, plus get a weighted pistol holding 50% of my bodyweight.

How do you wake up in the morning??
I love to make movement a part of my morning routine, nothing super intense, just switching between positions and focusing on breathing. Great waking up, as well as improving joint health and range of motion. It’s fun exploring what your body can and can’t do.

This is not pretty, but…
…an important first step in getting to the one arm pull-up. Working on these one arm holds with negatives. Really need to sort my legs out. These are tough, but fun. Highlights a clear strength difference between left & right, imbalance is not good! Something to work on.
