There are many reasons people take up Jiu-Jitsu. Fitness has a different meaning depending on the reason. For example, competitive Jitsukas must take their levels of Jiu-Jitsu fitness very seriously, just as anyone involved in competitive combat sports should.

Stop looking for short cuts in gaining high levels of Jiu-Jitsu fitness. High levels of endurance, stamina, strength, speed, coordination and agility are required and that is on top of all the technical skills needed. This cannot be acheived without a great deal of discipline, effort and determination.

There are some excellent Martial Arts Conditioning programs around that will help you reach the extreme levels of strength and conditioning that are required to reach the top.

People involved in other forms of non competitive Jiu-Jitsu such as Traditional or Self Defense styles, will not need to attain such high levels of Jiu-Jitsu fitness, however, it has to be taken serious enough to cope with the demands of the art. Don’t use the classes to get fit, but get fit to cope with the classes, this way injuries are much less likely to become a problem.

If you fit the latter category and are looking to get into great shape without that competitive commitment then try a program like “Afterburn“, which is an extreme fat loss program and the exercises are awesome.
