HOW OFTEN SHOULD YOU TRAIN?
For steady improvement and longevity in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, we recommend:
🥋 BJJ: 3 times per week
💪 Strength training: 2 times per week
🧘 Mobility and recovery: 3 times per week
SAMPLE WEEKLY PROGRAM
Monday: BJJ
Tuesday: Strength + Mobility
Wednesday: BJJ
Thursday: Mobility and Recovery
Friday: BJJ Competition Class
Saturday: Strength
Sunday: Light Mobility and Recovery
This split seems to be one of the best approaches for longevity in BJJ. It provides the right balance of technical training, competition preparation, strength, mobility, and recovery.
As a competition approaches, you can gradually increase your BJJ training frequency while paying close attention to what your body is telling you. More training is not always better—adjust your intensity and prioritize recovery when needed.
This balanced program can help you:
✅ Improve your BJJ technique and conditioning
✅ Prepare for competition-level intensity
✅ Build strength and reduce the risk of injury
✅ Improve flexibility, movement, and recovery
✅ Stay consistent without overtraining
✅ Keep training BJJ for years to come
Beginners can start with two BJJ classes per week and gradually increase their training. Experienced students may train more often, but recovery should always remain part of the program.
Whether your goal is improving your BJJ, getting stronger, losing weight, competing, or staying healthy, we can help you create a personalized program that fits your goals and schedule.
