Originally posted by blackmonk View PostThat's also why research by the NSCA has suggested that those with knee injuries opt for hip squats (powerlifting-style) rather than Olympic-style squats, because it increases knee compression and reduces knee shear. Shear is obviously the problem with ACL injuries.

I don't think much running is really necessary to build cardio (for Judo/Sambo...I'll leave BJJ alone). If done, intervals are better route than just jogging.

Originally posted by BKR View PostYes...best cardio results I ever got were via interval training (sprints/rest) and plyometric/circuit weight training related to Judo.
"Normal" running I used to build up a cardio base, but, judo is so hard on the knees/joints anyway I eventually went to bike riding for that.

My cardio was best when I mimicked the length of a match (in my case, judo and sambo) with varying strenuous activities. I would structure it in such a way that required power/anaerobic movements intermittently throughout, but it was not an interval or HIIT thing, necessarily (as in there wasn't a 2:1 ratio of work to rest).
Example: 5 min round
1 min, kettlebell swings
1 min, box jumps
1 min, suplexes with throwing dummy
1 min, bulgarian bag
1 min, bear crawls
And then I would pick a sixth activity, so that way each round had a slightly different load, similar to a match:
1 min, burpees
1 min, kettlebell swings
1 min, box jumps
1 min, o goshi with throwing dummy
1 min, bulgarian bag
I would complete 3ish rounds, or however many would mimic the work load of whatever tournament I had coming up. The entire workout would usually involve low-rep strength training first, then these rounds, and then possibly some walking on an incline treadmill.
It turned me into a machine, and got me super lean.

What kind of running do you plan to do ? LSD ? Interval training ? You can do a maybe 2 week cardio cycle and then will need to go to maintenance on whatever gains you got.
Have you evaluated your cardio first ? How ?

What's your gym like for comp prep? My BJJ gym has competition only classes that's a solid brutal fast paced 2 hours of cardio and sparring. I've only been to a few and already notice a difference in MMA.
Sounds weird, but also learning to regulate your breathing, and noticing the difference from being gassed, and an adrenaline dump could possibly help.

My Judo/Wrestling/Jiu Jitsu coach pretty much tells everyone to run. "Hey coach, I am gassing out." "Yes, yes you are... are you running?" "No..." "Run".
I mean, I lift and all that because I like being big and strong and having a sexy round tushy, but in the end running is going to do a lot. And then roll as much as possible.

You want to be better at Jiu Jitsu. Do Jiu Jutsu. However, I will say after my wake up call, I started running and fixed my diet. Eventually I added weight lifting and swimming.

The supplements are a bit like changing the tables settings on the titanic. Start by training hard as a mother fucker and work from there.
A little trick our guys do is get together on their day off and do ten rounds of hard sparring.
we have a twelve week program going on at the moment. Check the Facebook link. That is a lot of off the street doing fight prep style training.Last edited by gregaquaman; 3/07/2015 11:59pm, .
