Wrestling Solo Drills/Solo training
Hi all, someone has a recommended routine/drills/tools/instructionals to refer to when forced to train solo without access to a wrestling facility nor training partners? How much do you recommend a dummy? I'm more interested in the standing game obviously

@Andreus Bond recommendations for at home, no mats, just lawn? Just stance and motion, down blocks and feints?
how to get better at wrestling
I think one of the fastest ways to get better at wrestling is juts stop being so tense. I think alot of use think we are doing good because we are tense and just go hard the whole round. but its impossible to experiment when doing this. And yes you might "lose" at first(even tho there is no losing at practice) but you will start to develop techniques you could never even learn because you are going so HARD!

Paralysis by analysis sometimes, also as my old Coach told me 🤷
Does your gym let you standup??
so question for you guys is how often does your gym let you start standing? im curious because I know some gyms are less than others. As well as how often do they actually teach you guys takedowns in class?? please let me know below I am very curious how other schools do this!

yes, BJJ classes do end with live rounds from standing, typically. Mostly, though, BJJ lads will attend Wrestling to sharpen prior to comps as well, ofc. Helps that our kickboxing/wrestling coach is also a purple belt 🔥

@Andreus Bond pretty cool little community we have here 👌🏼
recovery question??!
how do you guys like to recover from jiujitsu?? I know some of y'all are old in here🤣(not a diss) but how do y'all like to recover from jiujitsu?? I personally like epsom salt baths but thats just cause I can do it at home. I also like tiger balm(I'm asian). but I'm curious how y'all do it, plus it can help people in the community!

Bruh 😂 Electrolyte drink during live rounds, massage gun, stretch, wife cooks me a high protein meal ready for when I get home (keeper), sleep is no brainer (but something I naturally struggle with). Careful with nutrition. Not always perfect and easier said than done ofc 😂

@Andreus Bond wife does a bulk buy of 0 sugar Gatorades when she gets to cost co (we live in an isolated area of the country) 😂 probably better options but I like them
Are shots required in jiujitsu??
so I have been thinking about is shooting necessary for standup in jiujitsu? And my opinion is if you just want to be good and take people down in jiujitsu I don't think you HAVE to shoot. you could be good at ducks, arm drags, under hook, overtook, judo. I have just noticed from me personally I don't shoot that much in jiujitsu because of all the dangers of it. But if I am with someone very good I do feel like a shot is necessary if all my other stuff is getting shut down. What do y'all think? let me know below!
