You don’t need to choose the squat or deadlift because we perform similar like movements in Jiu Jitsu training. In fact, because there are so many little adjustments in those movements and position, it’s better to practice them in training, headquarters, arm bars, etc.
I believe any variation of the deadlift or squat is the best bet for Jiu Jitsu athletes to build more neural drive through maximal strength training. This is really do to the potential ability to recruit more motor units and muscles fibers through bigger lifts.
This concludes this week Maximal Strength Lessons. Stay tuned for next week lessons on Isometric training how it’s one of the most effective tools for Jiu Jitsu training.
