Fisico Entrenamiento!

It has been tough recently but I am keeping motivated with smashing a new program in the gym and getting back to basics with a big focus on functional bodyweight exercises which can translate to my Jiu Jitsu.

I’ve added in another mid evening session for the team at Anaconda BJJ as I felt we needed something implemented other than the Jiu Jitsu itself and so far it has been a huge success with everyone smashing it.

In regards to my strength training I have been on a 5 day split working 1 muscle group per day but lifting heavy as I have found I am too tired for training the same evening if i work 2 muscle groups.

Weighing in at 75kg as of May 2017 with body fat of 15%.

First session @ 3pm  - Heavy resistance weights

Second session @ 7/8pm - 30 Minutes interval training - Strength and endurance with skipping

Third Session @ BJJ class Gi and Nogi

The focus has been on exercises which will directly impact my Jiu Jitsu such as hip movements, torso stabilization, pushing and pulling movements and carrying.


Using simple gym gear that I have with me everyday In my gym bag nothing here is new but rather simplistic and easy to pick up which often end's up being the best training.





Landmine – Such a great tool for rows, presses and core work this will remain a staple as it keeps your muscles activated throughout the full motion.

Medicine ball – Balance work, push up’s, rotations and of course power throws and slams.

Resistance bands – An amazing tool when coupled with a climbing rack that can be adapted for Judo movements, rows, punches, drags, explosive power work.

Gym Ball - Balance work and learning how to apply as much pressure as I can to the ball has helped my top game so much. (Small video of exercises below)

Kettlebell – An all-rounder kettlebell's always deserve a place in your training schedule. Cleans, pulls, swings, get ups, grabs and hip movements.


             Pushing hard to the brown belt! Something I thought was near impossible to achieve!
