A few weeks ago, I mentioned that I had an issue where I had to take some time off BJJ and had to go to the Emergency room because of that health issue.

Well, today was my very first training session back in about a month and I could feel it. If you’re older and do BJJ you probably know exactly what I’m talking about.

As you age in BJJ you can really tell the difference that a long break makes. I’m not “old” in the sense of full life. But I am for BJJ. That being said, in my mid 30s I definitely don’t recover the same as I did when I was 25.

Anyways, I wanted to share a couple ideas with you guys in relation to getting back to training BJJ after a serious injury, health issue, or whatever else took you off the mat.

Hopefully you find these ideas useful to you.

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!
