Cool crawling variation I’ve been playing with that is great for the back, shoulders and core……if done correctly.

You don’t want a resistance band that is too heavy, just enough resistance to make the stabilising muscles work a little harder. Notice the setup at the start, I drop my hips down and ROTATE ELBOWS OUT. Pit of the elbows should face forward. This is about SLOW CONTROLLED MOVEMENTS with the PELVIC TUCKED TOWARDS THE HEAD and SHOULDER BLADES PULLED DOWN AND BACK and good head position. Try and maintain a good box shape with the resistance band throughout.

One study has shown that this kind of quadruped position gets the best lower trap activation, which is essential in shoulder blade and shoulder function. Tucking the hips is also going to fire the core to achieve correct pelvic tilt, something that can be a key problem for lower back pain. ???

Some praise for the BJJStrength 15×2 program from David Kwiat
Think you can’t build pheonomal strength for BJJ with just a pull-up bar and a kettlebell? Then I challenge you to take on the 15×2 program.

Fantastic strength training doesn’t need to take up all your time and doesn’t need to impede your BJJ. Designed by a grappler for grapplers. ???

Morning work alongside my brother & movement/lifestyle teacher @greenstrengthiv. Eight more weeks to be in the best shape of my life! ??
•
This was 10 rounds of #mace movement followed by a hill sprint. Nice core work & cool down walk at the end.

Get the Animal Training program here: https://bit.ly/2OaOgcd

Medical professional, personal trainer and jiu jitsu player Dr Yiyang Ng brings you this fun and challenging workout program.

Animal Training features dynamic, functional movements that work the whole body and improve strength, balance, and agility.

Clearly, handstands are not my strong point, though one of my goals this year is to get a good freestanding handstand. During the last effort I felt ‘weightless’ for a split second and it felt great. Felt like progress and it felt great. What are you working on??

In this video (also available as a podcast at https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/strenuous-life-podcast-stephan-kesting-grapplearts/id320705565?mt=2) I go into my problem with CrossFit when used as a conditioning method for combat sports.

Last in a series of 6 rotational #strength exercises for #bjj
For this last one fluidity and smoothness should more of a focus than speed. Great way to work rotational movement, combined with a twist at the end to re-establish hip pressure and hip control. Speed comes after control. ???

Please, please, please stop making this mistake when swinging a #kettlebell
Notice how in the first example I’m WRONGLY squatting as I swing. No, no, no. I see this mistake nearly every single day. ???CORRECT form is to hinge at the hip and only allow the knees to bend as a natural result of the swing NOT to lead the swing. You should feel a stretch in the hamstring. Why??
the swing is a glute lead exercise. It’s the hinge that provides the ‘whip’, power and force. Squatting in this way makes it a quad dominate exercise. Trust me, with the amount of sitting we all do, our glutes need as much love as we can give them. A big factor in both #lowerback and #knee pain is weak glutes.

Hope I’m not boring you with this series!?! 5th in a series of 6 rotational #strength exercises for #bjj
20 reps, focus on control and increasing range of motion over time, rather than speed. Speed comes after control. ???

4th in a series of 6 rotational #strength exercises for #bjj great movement for killing positions with your hips

Really lead with the hips on this one. 20 reps, focus on control and increasing range of motion over time, rather than speed. Speed comes later once you have good form
