Build Real Strength For Grappling

JT & Joey
About this episode

What is the best type of strength training to get big and strong for BJJ? Is Powerlifting best- Squat, Bench & Deadlift? Are kettlebells, Indian clubs and Maces Bells which are more dynamic better for grappling strength? What tool is right for the job of build Real Strength. JT & Joey discuss the pros and cons each major strength training approach and then get to the heart of the problem...
Do you just gravitate towards that which is easiest for you? Often the biggest gains you can make in your strength for BJJ are in the lifting you are avoiding. Basing your strength program just on what feels good isn't a good method for building your base. Also the unique or cool new training system that just came out can look exciting, this also doesn't mean it's effective. The boys clear through the nonsense and give you the direction you need to get strong for BJJ.
