If you love Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and want to improve your ability in this form of martial art, you are probably taking several good Jiu-Jitsu classes each week. In addition to taking these important classes, there are many strengthening and conditioning exercises that can help you improve your martial arts skills.

Swimming is an excellent way to get into shape. Not only will you strengthen your back and shoulder muscles, swimming is a relatively low-impact exercise. Unlike running or jogging, you won't risk injury to your legs and ankles while swimming. In addition, swimming is a great way to strengthen your heart and lungs.

If you want to improve your body tone and strengthen and stretch muscles, consider practicing some form of yoga. There are many different types, and while each one focuses on something a bit different, they all help improve your flexibility, balance and overall mental health. Hot yoga, also known as Bikram yoga, is a great recovery tool when you have been injured, so consider a Bikram class when your muscles are really sore.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is all about grabbing onto and holding an opponent, so strengthening your ability to grip and hold a position is clearly an important goal. Rock climbing is definitely an activity you can use to help you improve your grip and upper body strength, as well as your overall balance.

In addition to taking part in one or more of the aforementioned exercises, it is wise to sit down with a nutrition expert and plan out a healthy diet. This includes learning what foods to eat and what types of supplements will be most beneficial for your body type.

Select a gym that offers training in martial arts in San Diego, and find one where you can take as many classes as you like for one monthly due. Your gym should include strength and conditioning classes, Jiu-Jitsu classes and perhaps even boxing classes. All of these classes can be helpful.
