Antunes Victor. The Minimum and Essential Brazilian Jiu Jitsu: A Pratical Guide for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Fighters

Victor Leal Antunes, 2021. — 22 p. — ISBN: 9781234567890.I’m glad you chose correctly and got this material, which will be very useful for your development in this beautiful and enjoyable sport that is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ).My name is Victor Antunes and I am a BJJ black belt, after long years (exactly 12 years in 2021) of hard training and several experiences in competitions and teaching classes in Brazil, and sometimes in the United States of America.Over the years I have come to realize that Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has much more to do, in all aspects, with quality than quantity, with critical reasoning and a well-established strategy than anything else.This does not exclude good physical preparation and hard training, but these are things that complement each other.
Nowadays, Jiu-Jitsu is very involved with competitions, although its original creation was focused on self-defense and the development of the athlete as a citizen.
This, in my view, is not a problem, however, this competitiveness in Jiu-Jitsu has created a wide atmosphere of creativity.With this, modern athletes tend to create and develop several new positions, concepts, techniques, and ways to win fights and championships, often just taking the rules as a reference, and not the effectiveness of the techniques, which usually confuses the head of the beginning athletes, and even the most senior, as to what should be prioritized or trained.In this sense, the need arose to create this digital book, because my training method, focused on quality and not on quantity, allowed me to understand what are the main positions, techniques, and concepts that should be trained and applied in Jiu Jitsu Brazilian in each belt.
