Coach
Matt Guffey, CSCS

The score is tied. There are 30 seconds left on the clock and you need to pass the guard, sweep, or submit your opponent to secure the victory.

Your coaches and teammates, they’re all cheering you on. You want nothing more than to bring home the medal and make them proud. This is your shot. Are you prepared? Do you have it in you to finish the fight strong?

“By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.”

Imagine being able to…

  • Reduce the risk of injury so you can train harder and more efficiently while staying on the mats longer.

  • Build strength so you can execute technique at will.

  • Re-guard with confidence.

  • Control your opponent with ease.

  • Sweep or SMASH the competition.

  • Wear the opposition down on the way to VICTORY.

Extend Your Shelf Life
Look around your dojo and you'll see mostly people under 40. But jiu-jitsu isn't only for the young, if you do it right. We're playing the long game, here. Learn to build lasting strength so "as long as you can" turns into "as long as you want to."

What if I don't have all the required equipment?
No worries! We can always help with alternatives to the required equipment. If you don't have something, let us know using the chat function at the bottom menu of the mobile app and we'll help you work around it.
How long are the workouts?

I'm a [ ] belt, is this program right for me?
This program can be beneficial for ALL belt levels, regardless of size, age, experience, etc.
What if I'm injured? Can I still do this program?
First we'd recommend you see a local professional about your injury to ensure that you're able to participate and rehabbing properly. Second, yes you can always work AROUND injuries. If there's something you can't do because of a movement limitation, skip it. Do what feels good!
The Proof

"I joined looking to improve overall strength for grappling. On their program I’ve noticed big strength gains in areas I hadn’t considered before, specifically in single-leg lifts. My balance and movement quality have also improved, and I'm not sore all the time like I used to be training on my own."

verified-athlete-avatar Jess Strole

Purple Belt

Verified Athlete

"I joined Victory 7 months after major knee surgery (ACL reconstruction/meniscus repair). Since, I’ve regained physical capability far faster than I thought, without feeling like my knee is in danger of injury. I’m confidently able to train more in my sport. I could not recommend this program more!"

Black Belt

Verified Athlete

"I used to suffer from injuries constantly and needed help working around them to reach my full potential again. Since starting I've had ZERO INJURIES while training hard and I can clearly see the difference in strength, endurance, explosiveness, and overall mobility. 100% would recommend!"
