BJJ and Strength training on the same day?

[RNC555]

Anyone done this? Sometimes it's difficult due to work etc for me to find separate days for BJJ and weights. While it's far from ideal, I was thinking of doing a BJJ class, then lifting afterwards; the gym and the dojo are literally just across the road from each other.

if there is a long enough time between them i dont think it will make a difference. i work out sometimes 3 times a day. i find interval training and hard cardio sessions are the only ones that can fk up my body in training and need good recovery time afterwards so i do them late at night or early morning.

strength training isnt that big a deal.

Is it true most BJJ guys don't lift?

100% true across the board, it's mainly Zumba and fresh squeezed Acai juice that produce results.

So they are in other worlds clueless taking down a guy who lifts and just stalls them?

If this is how they do against a guy who also boxes.. there is no way they take down a dude who is a lifter.

If only Art Jimmerson could deadlift 2.5x his body weight. Royce would be eating from a feeding tube to this day.

You tell me.

Never once did the average student come up in your postings.

When did you ever mention the average student?

I wrote "most BJJ guys". Most BJJ guys are not even fighters. But I'm happy you think training BJJ makes you Royce Gracie

Nah, I'm more like Cyborg Abreau. Kinda like how you're more coordinated than Deonte Wilder. Potato Potato.

Not sure why you don't think I can move and punch. Is this what you're talking about? The coordination of it all?

I'm no Ali but my coordination is better than Wilder. I never trip over my lead foot and lose balance.

I followed a strength program 4 days a week doing Judo the same day as weights got injured and was off for 2 years. Not able to do my job well or earn money filled with opiates and heading to surgery.

I was lucky I got non conventional therapy. But I am still paying the price.

If your doing BJJ thats your main sport do that and do weights 2 times a week max.

Yeah, that's what I'm doing at the moment; 2 x strength training per week. The long range forecast for Scotland is an exceptionally harsh winter. If that's the case, and weather conditions make running outside too risky, I may add more gym sessions so I can use the Prowler for conditioning.

BJJ is about endurance and technique, not strength.
