BJJ Made My Lifts Weaker (Balancing BJJ and Powerlifting)

BJJ Made My Lifts Weaker (Balancing BJJ and Powerlifting)

It can be hard to balance weight training and Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. I know that for me, I struggled with it at a point in my life where I was getting bigger and stronger and was chasing numbers in the weight room.

But then struggled with my BJJ training because I was too big and beat up for sufficient rolling and work on the mats.

And in this video I talk about this in the hopes to assist our friend Peter who is a Powerlifter getting into Brazilian Jiujitsu.

He says that since training Jiujitsu he’s noticed that his lifts have dropped in their overall poundage.

And his question is two fold. . .

1. How to Balance BJJ training with his Powerlifting?

2. Should he readjust his expectations for training?

I also touch on the current program I follow for lifting in order to support my BJJ training.

If you’re someone who’s really big into lifting who’s also pursuing BJJ. I hope this video is useful for you and your training on the mat and in the weight room.
