52 year old white belt here. The biggest issue I’ve had so far is RECOVERY. At only 4 weeks in to my journey, I’ve found that my mind is willing, but the body not so much! Plus, the most frustrating thing for me is that I started at a very good fitness level. Fairly strong. Very good VO2max. But…The soreness in my hip flexors, shoulders, elbows! 2x/week at the moment is about all I can do. I continue to lift, work on mobility. Hopefully this old body can adjust, because I really do love this crazy BJJ thing!
I’m 4 months in as a 38 year old and I relate to this. It will get better, but you require recovery. Just don’t sweat not making it in, especially if your joints hurt.
Thanks 🙏 i just wanted to hear from a different perspective this video is so helpful, on my journey on mastering two arts BJJ & JUDO it’s been only over a year doing this 😢 is tough as iron balls, like learning French and German two different languages more or less, and of course I do have a full time job, sometimes or always after my factory job I need the extra push or energy, I don’t date I don’t do drugs or parties just this as much as my body can keep up, and yet it’s no enough at 40 I do still look like on my late 20s but injuries don’t now about age or looks, the more stress you put the more you get, just be patient and careful no shame everyone is different from all ages and backgrounds, but for me, this is my journey or my mindset good video it I’ll helping me on in the near future thanks and keep up with the good fight, good luck 😉
I wanna train 4-6 times a week at night and lift 3-4 times a week in mornings, should be possible as i have the time currently to dedicate to recovery as well
Injuries happen because people listen to individuals like you who ask them to train twice a day! The body needs to rest. At least one day off between 2 training sessions!
Wrong it depends on the person along with how you are resting. I train 6 days a week. Some of those are two bjj classes a day. As long as I get enough rest I'm fine. One piece of advice is to lift at least once a week so that your muscles don't become too weak because that can cause injuries
This is ridiculous @patch57055 is a slow learner or hard of hearing. He literally said in the video that rest is important and 2 times a day training is mainly for those that are competing but that obviously the more you train you will sharpen your sword. That's why he mentioned surfing after training as not being a good thing especially if your doing 2 a days because you need rest. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG WITH WHAT HE SAID

@@GoldBJJ lifting is my main focus as I'm bulking slowly for a 315 bench but once I hit that I plan on competing in bjj

@@sgloobal2025 it also depends on how hard u train
@@johankaruyan5536 Yes. If your training twice a day you can do one hard training and one light training which is what I usually do
We should always listen to our bodies, first and foremost! There are many different ways we can train and at different intensity levels.
