How To Beat Bigger Grapplers

Posted on November 6, 2015 by admin

At intermediate and higher levels (amateur and particularly professional) the lighter students at a BJJ/grappling academy have it a little tougher than the average (and larger) sized fellow practitioners.

Guess what, peeps? I went to the premiere of SHAH! I bet some of you are jealous, eh? The thing is, I hate Pakistani media. I hate our TV, and our movies, with a passion. They are over-acted, the scripts so boringly simple and always seem to be about the same things: love or marriage conflicts. To spice things up a bit they’ll throw a little family turmoil in as well. So uncreative, so dull!…

Posted on May 9, 2015May 9, 2015 by Malik Abbas Ali

Most bodyweight workouts end up making you lose muscle and strength. By ignoring that athletes have been doing simple bodyweight workouts for decades and have gained strength and speed while losing fat, there is a reason why boxing bodyweight workouts are better than ancient bodyweight workouts and i.e. “Boxers are fighters”. They train for a battle, so they have to get tougher and leaner without losing their agility and muscles. Following are the three major…
