Have you ever done Sandbag Training? It is one of the toughest tools to help grapplers get fitter and stronger. The slippery and unpredictable nature of sandbags closely resembles squeezing and controlling another human. During Covid Lockdown in 2020 JT trained with sandbags and a couple of Kettlebells and saw his strength skyrocket. Every week he got stronger which blew him away. Both the Bulletproof boys use Sandbags in their strength training and they discuss how the raw strength and grappling specific gripping has direct cross over to rolling. This is a wide ranging discussion of how less technical lifting and greater force production results in massive strength gains for BJJ.

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
