Conditioning to complement SL 5x5

Conditioning to complement SL 5x5

Kettlebell swings are awesome for conditioning. Also give you plenty of hip thrust power which is key in BJJ (think explosive bridging, popping opponents off you from mount/sidemount).

They're low impact, can do 6mins intervals 2x a week and get big results.

The downside is, yes, expensive. But you can get a few months of progress out of a single bell. E.g. buy one you can just barely do 20 reps on, work up to intervals of 30sec swingining/30 resting, then eventually just do like one long continuous set of 150+ reps.

For grip strength/endurance: if you deadlift in your routine, just do some of the sets with no straps. That's enough for grip strength and endurance, particularly applicable to holding a gi in BJJ.
