189 - Grappling Dummies and Other Tips to Train When You Can't Make It to Class
From The Strenuous Life Podcast
Does training with grappling dummies actually work to improve your skills? And what else can you do to get better when training time is limited and it's difficult to make it to class as often as you like?
This podcast rant is also available in written and video form as an in-depth blog post at https://www.grapplearts.com/will-grappling-dummy-drills-help-bjj/
Regardless of how you decide to solve the problem I wish you good luck with both your time management and your training!
