Is Gi training beneficial for No Gi training? That’s the BJJ related question I received from Ariana who is fairly new to Brazilian Jiu-jitsu.

She has been doing No Gi thus far and has asked around if she should do some training in the gi. And the general consensus that she gets is that the Gi is not beneficial or is useless.

In this video I touch on my experience about whether or not the Gi can be useful for No Gi BJJ.

But I also touch on the dogmatic approach many people in Brazilian Jiujitsu tend to take. Especially when it comes to this Gi vs No Gi debate.

Brazilian Jiu-jitsu is art and it’s hard to nail down exacts in an art form.

Think of music and painting. How trends will come and go. Things that used to be considered garbage are now the exact things that are praised for their artistic creativity.

So if you’re wondering this same question, then I hope this helps! And try and keep an open mind for your BJJ training.

5 Dollar Tool to Relieve Sore Neck Muscles After BJJ Training

Gary Berger — Thu, 03 Aug 2017 00:00:00 +0000

Do you ever get sore neck muscles after BJJ training? Then try using this $5 (or less) little too like I show in the video.

Recently I was doing a little No Gi training with a good Black Belt friend of mine. During our roll he was going after his Guillotine choke, which he has a good one.

I was able to defend the chokes but my neck took a beating.

Later on that night after the rolling session. I was sitting with my girlfriend for dinner and realized my neck was incredibly sore. And I realized it was from out session.

Anytime I run into sore neck or upper back muscles after Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training. Using a lacrosse ball or this lacrosse ball peanut is my goto for recovery and to relieve sore neck muscles. It really digs deep into the muscles and gives me a ton of relief.

On the day of filming this video I was doing a bit of lifting. And before I could do front squats effectively. I had to loosen up my neck.

Hopefully if you’re experiencing some sore neck muscles after Brazilian Jiujitsu training this little tool will be helpful for you and your recovery after training!
