Does anyone know of any good training drills for BJJ that can be done at home to improve my grappling??

I've thought about building an armbar dummy to practice armbar drills on. I don't mean a grappling dummy, because I already tried that and it didn't turn out so well. This machine would be just the upper body and would have bungee cords for resistance and to put the arms back into position for drilling. Dunno if it would work or not. It's gotta be easier than making a grappling dummy.

choke, I must start by saying i love your name!!!

As usual feels abit like i'm talking to myself !

But there is a very good drill you can do at home, and it does include using a type of dummy. THE WIFE.
I've said it before and i'll say it again, nothing beats it !

why bother going and travelling miles to a class 5 days/week, when they are always there, just in the next room(kitchen) !

Food for thought !

Yes, but what drills do you use on your 'grappling dummy' Choke UK???

The best training that you can do solo is strength and conditioning. Dummies and training drills don't work well without a partner.

When it comes down to implieing subbmissions I have to agree with their being no substitute for a live partner. However great flexibility from constant streches can come to be a small secret wepon of sorts.

Graciefan..... WHAT???

Graciefan · 01-24-2003, 03:03 AM

its hard to train without some one to train with( at least with bbj ).
more streching can help you more than you think.

...hows that?
