The Surprising Benefit Limited Training Time Had On My BJJ

Gary Berger — Sat, 30 Aug 2025 20:03:18 +0000

When I started training BJJ, I was a graduate student in Physical Therapy school. My training time was limited…over the years, I found this limited training time to be an important aspect of longevity in BJJ on multiple levels.

BOOM! The Versatility of the Brabo Grip!

Gary Berger — Fri, 29 Nov 2024 17:00:10 +0000

In this video I say “Boom” a lot…not sure why I did that. But if you count how many times I said boom, then send me an e-mail to jiujitsutherapist@gmail.com and I will send you a free t-shift or warm up instructional.

So getting to the video, I demonstrate the versatility of the Brabo Grip. I love using this grip to break and control posture, slow down an opponent, and of course submit them using this grip. I demonstrate an X Choke as well as an arm bar that can be utilized from the bottom of closed guard. These are super easy and low risk submissions.

Let me know your thoughts and what else you would like to see me cover in another video!

Is It Better To Train BJJ 2X A Week For 10 Years or 2X A Day For 3 Years?

Gary Berger — Fri, 15 Nov 2024 18:00:12 +0000

It is better to train 2 x per week for 10 years or 2 x per day for 3 years?
This is an interesting question and it really depends on your goals, intentions for training, age, and numerous other factors. I am an example of someone who has trained 2-3 x per week for over 10 years (over 15 years at this point).

I share some of my ideas on training frequency and some ideas on longevity in BJJ.

Use Your Own Lapel To Hit This Choke

Gary Berger — Fri, 08 Nov 2024 20:00:04 +0000

If you’re dealing with a stubborn opponent that is playing very defensive and you’re having a tough time getting a submission, this sneaky choke using you own lapel can help get you a sneaky submission or at least set up an opening for an attack.

Hope this helps!
