☝Protect your body with Team EP the BEST S&C service in jiu jitsu. Above link for a 7 day free trial!

If you've spent any time training jiu jitsu, you've experienced an injury of some kind. That's why I like to look at our ability to deal with injury as a skill in and of itself. With this video, I'll arm you with the physical tools needed to address injury to every major joint (neck, shoulder, elbow, wrist/hand, low back, hips, knee, foot/ankle). I provide simple options to begin to tax these regions directly, so you can immediately begin working on the SOLUTION instead of stewing and fixating on your injury and what you cannot do.

I also give examples of preventative exercises for each major joint. This may not be as sexy, but a sensible Strength and Conditioning plan will make you more resilient and less likely to get hurt throughout your BJJ career. If you want more specific guidance, I strongly recommend checking out the Team EP link above we provide access to over 60 S&C plans for BJJ, each with its own specific focus. And we release a new plan every single month! I also provide form checks and coaching through our Facebook group, all for the price of 29.99/month. I'm confident you won't find a better resource for jiu jitsu practitioners, and with a more experienced coach which is why I let you try it for 7 days free.

But perhaps the most important thing that I discuss in this video, is the appropriate mindset necessary to deal with injury. This "AntiFragile" mindset allows you to assess where you currently are, develop an actionable plan to return to your sport, and take steps to do just that.

Contrary to what other videos claim, you aren't just "one injury away" from ending your jiu jitsu career. The human body is incredibly adaptable and resilient, and can heal from insane amounts of physical trauma. All you have to do is provide the right physical and mental environment for it to do so and this video is a great framework to do just that.
