James Deirmendjian a strength and conditioning coach specialising in combat and tactical athletes who ALSO competes in BJJ, fighting against much younger opponents. As such he was the perfect choice to finish our 4-part series on hybrid training and the science of developing strength and endurance at the same time.
In this episode James and I touch on many topics, including…
– The most important aspects of fitness for winning matches in BJJ and how to develop it
– The difference between getting tired in a match vs not recovering between matches
– How to schedule weightlifting and cardio so they don’t interfere with each
– How to recover more fully between workouts
– Training to maintain your cognitive abilities under stress
– And much more.
