Very in-depth yet managing to stay practical. A must-read for serious coaches and athletes interested in sports science. Jan 02, Rory Armstrong rated it really liked it. Takes hypertropy as the focus but occasionally gives examples for strength training. Very good for getting a good understanding of these fundamental concepts.

Nov 24, Ravi Sinha rated it really liked it Shelves: sport , fitness. The content is top notch, but I took away a star because I found the material too densely presented. I've been able to get through other RP books relatively more swimmingly, but found myself pausing to read between the lines in this one, despite its shorter length.

Fitness Workouts Healthy Eating Reviews. Samuel Spiegelman Last updated on April 21st, Who Are You? Some tips to help the competitor: Hard training sessions must be followed with rest or a light session. For example, train hard Saturday morning, but take Sunday off. I would not recommend two hard training sessions on the same day.

For competitors who train twice a day, if one session is going to be intense, then the other session should be recovery work or light drilling. Remember you do not have to train hard everyday all day.

Mix in some easy and medium intensity days. Do not spar hard everyday. The majority of training time should be spent drilling. One or two sessions of strength and conditioning work per week is all you need.

Avoid doing your intense strength and conditioning sessions on the same day as intense BJJ training. The rest of your training time should focus on recovery work.

Recreational Athlete The focus of a recreational athlete is skill work and drilling. Listening to Your Body Competitors and recreational athletes can learn a lot from their bodies if they just listened.

Pay attention to the following signals: Mood changes: When the body is getting to the point of overtraining, changes in mood are common.

You may feel depressed or just down. Joint pain and stiffness: Too much training causes inflammation. Performance: Keep track of your performance. If there is a drop, instead of an increase in training, it may be time to take a day or two off. Conclusion For grapplers to get better, hard work is important.
