Full-body, 3 days a week programs are highly effective for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and wrestling. This allows for maximal recovery time to prioritize performance on the mats. It builds injury-resistant armor around your joints, and reinforces the same compound movements used in grappling. If you want to become well rounded athlete, adding strength and conditioning to your game is a must.
