Maintenance & Performance 🥋 2025 @ibjjf European Championship

Gary Berger — Fri, 17 Jan 2025 22:23:51 +0000

Less Than a Week to Go: Tournament Focus

With the tournament just around the corner, it’s time to sharpen your mindset and prioritize two key areas:

1⃣ Maintenance
The hard work is DONE! You won’t get in better shape now, so focus on staying safe, healthy, and feeling great. Do what works best for you! For me, since Lisbon is 7⃣ hours ahead of Arizona, I’ve been getting earlier workouts in to help my body adjust.

2⃣ Performance
The process is complete, and stressing about winning or losing won’t help you now. Focusing on things you can’t control—like the outcome—can lead to anxiety, muscle tension, and prevent you from being your authentic self on the mat.

Here’s the game plan:
• Shift your focus to execution.
• Visualize your systems and moves.
• Trust your preparation and perform to the best of your ability.

Sometimes your best will earn the win , and sometimes it won’t—but if you gave it your all, you can step off the mat with peace, knowing you left everything out there. If your opponent beats you, show respect, congratulate them , and then it’s back to the grind.

The real victory is in the process and the growth it brings.

A Drill that Instantly Improves Your Armbar Attacks

Gary Berger — Mon, 18 Dec 2023 04:26:50 +0000

If you just think of a submission just as an attack then you’ll have a very difficult time submitting good people. The truth is that in order to submit skilled grapplers you first have to be able to control them in that position, which means thinking about and training submissions as positions. Here, from the new instructional BJJ Games (https://www.grapplearts.com/bjjgames) is the armbar control game which will teach you how to control the armbar as a position. Live training footage starts at approx 4:21
