A typical training session, improving conditioning, technique, and submissions!!!

Training as a Jiu Jitsu athlete has many facets.  I at times do body weight exercises as a conditioning tool when I don't have a training partner for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. 
When I have partners, besides sparring or rolling I ❤ drilling.  Repeating moves over and over till I have repped out 1,000 repetitions of the movement is one of my favorite ways to get a practical Brazilian Jiujitsu workout in.  
Instead of going for a run, grab a partner and literally do 500 reps of a movement, then tell me which workout helped your jiujitsu more.
