Frequently Asked Questions

What gear do I need for BJJ?

For Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, you'll need a gi (kimono) or no-gi apparel like rash guards and spats, a mouthguard for protection, and a belt to indicate your rank. Optional items include grappling shorts and a gym bag for convenience.

Is 5 times a week enough for BJJ?

Training 5 times a week is excellent for skill improvement, conditioning, and progression in BJJ. Ensure you balance it with proper rest and recovery to avoid burnout or injuries.

Does GI color matter in BJJ?

Gi color doesn’t affect performance but may have rules in competitions or academies. Common colors like white, blue, and black are widely accepted, but it’s best to check your gym's guidelines.

Is BJJ enough for fitness?

Yes, BJJ provides a full-body workout that improves strength, flexibility, cardio, and mental toughness. It's great for weight loss and building functional fitness while learning self-defense.

Can I wear shorts in BJJ?

For no-gi classes, shorts designed for grappling are acceptable, but they should be free of zippers or pockets. Avoid regular gym shorts to ensure safety during training.

What to wear to BJJ first time?

For your first BJJ class, wear a gi if you have one, or opt for athletic wear like a rash guard and compression pants. Avoid baggy clothing and ensure everything is clean and odor-free.
