Free Grappling Concepts DVD

My good friend and BJJ mentor Stephan Kesting is giving away a free DVD to help promote a his new Grappling Concepts Ecourse.

I have always been a fan of Stephan’s work but he seriously over-delivered on this one. Check out the video below to hear my thoughts.

A Combat Sports Success Story

I enjoy working with combat athletes of all skill and fitness levels. However, geography and time constraints simply do not allow me to work with everyone that I would like to. And to be honest that’s one reason why we created Combat Sports Conditioning.

Micah Atkinson is a BJJ Brown Belt from Novagen BJJ in South Africa and was our first official member. Now, I know Micah’s schedule and it is nothing short of hectic but somehow Micah always finds the time for conditioning and skill development.

Successful combat athletes do not wait around for the perfect schedule. They make time for training. They squeeze it in whenever possible…in between teaching sessions, before work or on their lunch hour.

I’m psyched that Micah is part of growing community and would like to share a little something that  Micah had to say after a recent BJJ competition.

“Hey Coach,

Just a quick one to say thanks again so much for the advice. I won both the gi and no-gi divisions for my weight at The Cape Of Storms Grappling Nationals this weekend in Cape Town, S.A.
I had 3 matches in each division (gi won with submission and 2 on points, no gi won all 3 by submission)and conditioning felt 100%!”

 

Thank You Micah!

Static Grip Endurance for Combat Sports

This is a great variation to build solid static strength-endurance in your upperback, arms and grip.

You can program this movement two different ways:

* Go for a set period of time.30 seconds is more than suffecient to start.

* Go for a set number of hand changes. Start low.

If you’re grappler, keep your overall volume low on this exercise, as it can stress your biceps tendons and elbows quite a bit.

All the best,

Jason C. Brown BS CSCS

P.S. If you’re a self-taught Combat Sport Athlete, you’re probably also highly-
motivated. You teach yourself to do the things that will move your
fitness and Combat Sport Conditioning forward.

And you’re probably looking for Combat Sport Conditioning programs and
resources that you can study and test out on your own time.

I designed Combat-Sports-Conditioning.com
for Combat Sport Athletes like you.
