In this video, I answer a question from a viewer that is a BJJ hobbyist who trains 1-3 x per week. They are wondering “How long will I suck?”

In this video, I provide an answer, and then some tangible ideas on how to actually improve your grappling.

How can a BJJ hobbyist who competes somewhat often prepare for a professional grappler? This is the basic question I received from a viewer who is a competitor in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu is but is still by all means a “hobbyist.” Meaning he has a job off the mats and can only devote 3 days a week or so to training.

This is opposed to a professional who might do BJJ all the time and competes often.

So in this video I give a mindset that could be useful to you if you ever find yourself in a situation where, on paper, you’re supposed to lose or are seemingly outmatched. This kind of situation could spook you at 1st. But I’m going to explain why it could make your BJJ even better by opening up a new mindset in you.

Whether you are an avid grappler or a hobbyist, you should incorporate strength training into your schedule. The benefits can’t be denied…whether its for improving performance, reducing the risk of injury, or just feeling and looking better, strength training is a must.

In this video I discuss how I incorporate strength training into my schedule, and how you can too if you train BJJ a couple of times per week or if you train every day.

In this video, I go through the idea of a “Jiu-Jitsu Hobbyist” and a “Jiu-Jitsu Professional” and what is the difference between the two.

As the martial art and sport has evolved, there are definitely a few unique distinctions and differences between these groups.
