Have you heard the phrase "Don't use Strength, use Technique." There is an underlying philosophy in BJJ culture that being strong holds you back from learning Jiu-Jitsu technique, there is a type of strength shaming that goes on. We all know that being more athletic helps us when rolling but the idea that technique trumps strength has been overstated and the boys breakdown why:
1.) The Technique beats Strength Myth
2.) Why don't lightweights win the Absolute?
3.) Strength is the Technique Multiplier
4.) When a Cue becomes Dogma
5.) No Strength = No Options
The idea that being strong holds you back in BJJ is not a helpful way to look at the game. Developing strength in parallel with learning BJJ technique is the ultimate way to get better on the mat.
