Mark de Grasse, owner and editor of the My Mad Methods Magazine, demonstrates a series of kettlebell, sandbag, and sledgehammer exercises for power, strength, explosiveness, and mobility. This Jiu Jitsu workout is designed to simulate the strains that you would endure during a Jiu Jitsu match: power and explosiveness to control an opponents body, grip strength to hold onto a gi or limb, core strength and endurance to grapple for long periods of time, and mobility to avoid injury. This workout is related to an article featured in the Dec/Jan 2012 Issue of Jiu-Jitsu Magazine.
