The Types of Lifting I Avoid as a 37-Year-Old Black Belt in BJJ

Got a lifting question from a viewer recently who asks,

“What’s the best type of lifting for BJJ?”

Now he went on in the message to ask about different modalities of lifting like crossfit, powerlifting and so on. So in the video I share my experiences with everything from crossfit to powerlifting to bodybuilding style workouts and what I prefer now.

Keep in mind that in the video I’m going off my experiences as someone who’s been lifting since he was a teenager. Also, my purposes for lifting as a 37 year old guy are different now than they were when I was a younger competitor. Nowadays it’s for injury prevention and also a little of aesthetics. I share this because this isn’t to say that my answer is right, it’s simply a piece of advice to take in and consider for your own training.

But either way, I hope the video is useful to you if lifting and BJJ is a question you might have.
