Again, as with the exercises from the last two days, this builds all important rotational strength for BJJ. The added instability of kneeling on the ball will also work your balance, which in turn allows to react instinctively to your opponents movements in real time, so you can (hopefully) counteract them. @jack_jitsu @functional4roll .

A more advanced version of yesterday’s exercise. Sitting on the ball adds more instability and makes it harder to stay organised. Key is minimising movement of the pelvis on the ball, so all the rotation is coming from the core.

#BJJ is unique to many sports, where we need to rotate the body, from a seated position (arm drags being one example) without the benefit of driving our feet off the floor. .
.
This exercise develops rotational strength that has great application. Key here is STAY ORGANISED through the core and only rotate as far as you can while holding a strong stable spine and head position.

Just one, of many examples, of why training correct rib & pelvic position during your strength & conditioning has HUGE application to BJJ @jack_jitsu @jackcbjj @the_grappling_life_podcast @cumbria_s_c @carlsongracieteam .

One of the best exercises for building shoulder & elbow stability, that’s critical for when we ‘post’ with our arms in BJJ. @the_jiujitsu_ronin @knight_jiu_jitsu_ @kennykimbjj A good one to try during your warmups!
.
.
Important ques: pits of elbows pointing forward, shoulder blades pulled away from your ears, core tight, hips “tucked up”. Should feel like you’re “falling” face forward.

Be honest, do you focus enough on long term consistency in your training?

Do you still with stability balls? If not, why not?
•
For me, it’s one of the best supplemental tools to add on top of your BJJ training to improve your movement, especially when you can’t make it to class…..like me right now!!

Side on profile of a triple extension kettlebell snatch, to show alignment and place of the hips, ribs, shoulder arm and head.
•
Key things to focus on at the top of movement are: 1) glutes are squeezed like you’re “flicking up” your genitals. 2) core is tight and the ribs are pulled down. 3) chin stays down, almost like you’re looking through the eyebrows. 4) your shoulder blade/scapula is pulled down, so you’re not shrugging the shoulder. The whole line from foot to your hand should feel like you’re braced against the sky falling down onto your hand……if that makes sense.
•
You’ll also notice that on the upward swing, there is more of a bend in the knees than with a traditional swing or snatch, in order to get the hips “under” the kettlebell to lead into the triple extension.
