ok so after my first class first thing i see i need to work on is my cardio and tips or tricks im thinking about ordering this http://o2trainer.com/ cant go wrong with bas rutten but what is your guess opinion on this topic what are some good ways to build stamina
i want one. i saw him do a show about this a while back. looks awesome
I think that is the type of product you would buy once you can go balls out running stairs for an hour. I think you have to be in pretty incredible condition to benefit from an o2trainer.
run
ruining is a good way to build cardio but my knees don't like it to much i can do it but would rather not also http://o2trainer.com/ can be used well u sit around n play videos games do dishes go for a bike or at least that's what i thought i think it would go good with yoga
Have you been sent by Bas or are you just out of your fucking mind?Quote:

RUN, JUMPROPE, oh and pit workout with gene hackleman!

Common now, of course you do!
Bas can't spell lol
Check out Wolf Brigade.
Uhh guys, did you miss where he said it was his FIRST class? He simply needs to grapple more. There is no magic grappling cardio pill he can take between classes. Even guys with good cardio tend to gas early on in training because they dont know what they are doing/push too hard/cant relax/etc. He just needs to go to class more, not find the cutting edge training methods for maximum cardio (that comes a good deal later IMO).
Just roll bud... Then roll some more..... When you are proper beat do it again for 30 min. :)

In total I sprint 8 times and on average it all takes less then 10 minutes and I do this 3 times a week in the mornings and I roll in the evenings so I have easily recovered then. Maybe start HIIT on a bike or cross-trainer first before sprinting to get your body used to it and to build enough strength so you don't injure yourself sprinting.
As for Yoga I have found while some poses can help increase lung capacity it never did anything for my cardio overall. Also if that Bas Rutten thing is the same as something called a Power breather I used years ago then it really isn't for beginners. Plus the more you roll the more your body get's used to it so don't be discouraged by what happened in your first class.
Sorry I meant to write 100 metre sprints not 200 metres! No way can I run 200m 8 times in less then 10 minutes!!
Crossfit is really good for this type of Cardio.
in wrestling we use to do this; which i hated....because i was a slow runner
(when your knees get better try and do this)
we use to run a 440 meter lap in under 1:25 (one minute and 25 seconds)......and we use to do like 5 of them after a 5 hour practice :\ and when we would get in trouble for something he would make us do like 11 of them
I do Insanity 2 times a week. It doesnt get any better for cardio and core work...
Martin Rooney's HURRICANES check it out best cardio workout you can do
so that insanity is the real deal or wha?
steroids. the solution to everything
First off, I'm skeptical about any product that encourages you to breathe through your mouth, particularly for fighters. Secondly, what you are feeling is not a lack of cardio per se'. What you are experiencing (assuming you meant your FIRST BJJ class) is the cumulative effects of: A) Being very tense, as all newer grapplers are because you are unsure of yourself and you want to "do well". B) lacking in technique (if you don't have a move from a certain position your only choice is to muscle it and this takes waaaaay more energy than executing a technique) and C) not knowing how and when to breathe. (the tendency is to hold your breath when really exerting yourself. It may be only for a fraction of a second at a time but this is detrimental to your gas tank, think holding your breath on a treadmill....no good. And even senior students catch themselves doing it from time to time so...)
Once you have go to moves from each position and you learn to relax and breath and only explode for a second or two at a time when you need to you'll find you have waay more "cardio" than you thought.
bikeride, also bag workouts are good too.
wow awesome advice I can use a lot of this.Quote:
