Powerlifting is a set of skills, it's like a training 100m sprints to get good at bjj. I've lifted for over 20 years and came to bjj about 3 years ago. I've never seen a community of people complicate resistance training so much, common sense should tell you that you need time to adapt to any increase in physical demand. However the body is really very good at adaptation, progressive overload of whatever the stimulus is still applies. The biggest misnomers I see are using ped's as a shortcut, tendons and ligaments take years to adapt, muscles do not. Your shit will just snap up easier. And a misguided belief in flexibility over mobility, you can be ad flexible as you want, it just means further to travel before shit snaps.
I agree with a lot of what you're saying here. Flexibility is nothing without strength throughout the full range; this much we know from a "basic principals" standpoint. I also really like your analogy and description of powerlifting being a skillset. It's a super common mistake for people to train a strength sport to try and get "strong" and wonder why they're not seeing the adaptations they're after. As for PEDs, that's something I want to address in detail in the future, but I haven't figured out the most impactful approach.
But for a person who is relatively weak. Let’s say they cannot squat 1.5x their weight, can’t bench their weight etc. Would you suggest they do a basic strength training program just to get themselves to the average standards and then embark on the types of training you mention?
That's an excellent question. I address the minimum standards for power training in a podcast episode I covered specifically on power. But as for a training approach, I'd say the only thing I'd change for someone you're describing is to have more emphasis on compound movements whilst still developing them holistically.

Could you be in non functioning over reaching mode if all you did was grappling? I felt like I could do well on the mats but my strength was lacking by not lifting at all. How accurate do you think that is? Thanks for the tips!
You can be in a state of non-functioning overreach with any activity if it's too much for you to recover. But regardless of your schedule, I think including some strength training is essential if you want to reduce your risk of injury and maintain / develop your strength.
@@KierenLefevre following Firas Zahabi's strong and stable programs. So for knees it's using stability ball for hamstring curls, balancing on it (eventually work up to squats with it), 360° lunge matrix, split jerk, plyometrics, sprints with a resistance band around your waist. Other exercises for shoulders, back and neck as well.
But I want muscles big muscles 💪. Cause I ain't gunna be a world class athlete but I Wana be decent and look good. But on a serious note, iveen looking alot at dr mikes breakdown on bjj and bodybuilding. how does hypotrophy training fit into into your sessions.
It depends on the focus of the program. I did a podcast breakdown on hypertrophy for BJJ here ruclips.net/video/mAK1nUxqoXg/видео.html&ab_channel=KierenLefevreJiujitsu

Everybody wants a shortcut these days, I'm 53 and never user peds whilst most around me have. They've come and gone and I'm still here.
@@Johnnygstring yeah man, I agree with you there.
I'm against PEDs in sport

@@KierenLefevre heck yeah, thanks man!
"There is no advantage to being frail and weak".... lol.. steady on Kieren.
tell me I'm wrong 😂😂
If i do medium running for 5 days is it safe ?
Heyy you train at Jordan's gym? Cool!
I started a stability program and have been working on that as my foundation to avoid injuries an and off the mats
Oh that’s awesome, what sort of work does it include?

Great video, nicely done
thank you 😁
Ciao Kieran,so what do you think about a 3 sessions jiujitsu and 3 sessions physical training,Across 6 days?
I wonder what your schedule is.
Thank you
That’s a really solid routine, 6 sessions per week plus 1 rest day is very manageable.
But I want muscles big muscles 💪. Cause I ain't gunna be a world class athlete but I Wana be decent and look good.
But on a serious note, iveen looking alot at dr mikes breakdown on bjj and bodybuilding.

Weak?! Wouldn't you want to be strong instead?
Sure would.
