Have short and long term projects. Divide you training between technique, technical, tactical and conditioning. Force yourself once a week into your areas of least comfort. Last take advantage of the unexpected. This could be a chance to roll with someone from a different style or being forced to work your weak side due to injury.
spiritual training. "Do not try to bend the spoon, that's impossible. Instead only try to realize the truth... there is no spoon."

visualize, look over notes, get to my spot first
1. A conditioning program
2. Watch about 30 min of tech before bed
3. Consistant training every week
4. Good food and sleep
i know what it is i just wanted to know what he does to strength his own gripQuote:

also having the best grappling gear, that covers your whole body helps so you dont get any sickness and dont have to stay out
also like brian said try and do it atleast once a week where you are out of your comfort zone, and put your goals into smaller goals, and smaller goals
Squeeze medicine balls in between your legs and RNC choke them. Work on leg curls and watch your half and full guards games explode. Happened to me!
Anabolic steroids.
i like this your legs are so important in jiu jitsuQuote:

i know this looks easy but it really helps to drill this
Watch Ryan Hall videos.
I do strength training, for sure. Lots of basic strength lifts, neck work, and grip work.
I obsessively watch technique videos, and make lists of techniques that I want to play around with for that day. Like yesterday, there wasn't anybody in the gym, so I stood a huge foam roller in the middle of the mat and practiced Imanari-style inverted shots.
I also try to roll with more experienced guys as much as possible. Cross-training in sambo and judo has made a huge difference, too.
i think cross training is key to alot of stuff if you can find a way use it ,if it works drill it and keep itQuote:
