Episode 04: Strength Training for Recreational BJJ and Other Sports w/ Special Guest Alex
We sat down with Alex Rascovar to talk about strength training for the brazilian jiu-jitsu hobbyist. In his late 30s weighing 140lbs, Alex was the "skinny guy" at BJJ and was concerned about injury risk. He started lifting weights, and has gained nearly 25lbs and feels stronger and more confident on the mats. We talk about how to start a training routine, how a serious hobbyist should think about strength & conditioning for BJJ, myths about fitness for jiu jitsu, and more.
