Finding Consistency in Jiu Jitsu: How to Train 2-3 Times a Week and See Real Improvement

At El Dorado Hills Jiu Jitsu, we understand that life can get busy. Between work, school, family, and other commitments, it might feel challenging to fit Jiu Jitsu into your weekly routine. However, training consistently—just 2-3 times a week—can bring significant progress to your technique, fitness, and overall enjoyment of the art. The key is organizing your schedule and committing to showing up.

Why Consistency Matters

In Jiu Jitsu, consistency builds momentum. Each session reinforces techniques, improves your timing, and helps you develop muscle memory. Sporadic training can lead to frustration, as you may feel like you’re starting over each time you step on the mat. On the other hand, training regularly—even a few times a week—helps you retain what you’ve learned and build on it.

Consistency also fosters relationships with your training partners and instructors. When you show up regularly, your teammates get to know your style, strengths, and weaknesses, making every roll more productive.

Tips for Organizing Your Schedule

Here’s how to set yourself up for success:

  1. Plan Ahead: Take a look at your weekly schedule and identify the best times for training. At El Dorado Hills Jiu Jitsu, we offer a variety of class times, including early morning, midday, and evening options. Choose 2-3 sessions that align with your availability and block them out on your calendar. Treat these times as unmissable appointments.
  2. Start Small and Build Up: If you’re new to training or returning after a break, start with two sessions a week. Once this becomes a habit, consider adding a third class. Building slowly helps you avoid burnout and ensures your training fits sustainably into your routine.
  3. Communicate With Your Family and Employer: If you have a busy family or work life, communicate your training goals to those around you. Let them know that these 2-3 hours a week are important to your physical and mental well-being. By involving others in your goals, you may find they’re more supportive of your efforts.
  4. Prioritize Recovery: Training regularly requires balancing intensity with recovery. Prioritize proper sleep, hydration, and nutrition to ensure you’re energized for each session.
  5. Be Flexible, But Consistent: Life happens. If you miss a class, don’t let it derail your week. Instead, find another session to attend or make it up the following week. The key is to stay consistent over the long term.

The Value of Consistency

When you commit to training 2-3 times a week, you’ll notice improvements in several areas:

  • Skill Progression: Regular practice sharpens your techniques and deepens your understanding of Jiu Jitsu.
  • Physical Fitness: Even a few sessions a week can improve your strength, endurance, and flexibility.
  • Mental Toughness: Overcoming the challenges of training builds resilience, focus, and confidence both on and off the mat.
  • Team Connection: Consistency helps you build relationships with your training partners, creating a sense of camaraderie and support.

At El Dorado Hills Jiu Jitsu, we believe in helping you reach your goals at your own pace. Whether you’re training for fun, fitness, or competition, finding consistency will set you on the path to success.

A Training Analogy: Money in the Bank

At El Dorado Hills Jiu Jitsu, we often hear people say they’ll get back on the mats when life calms down. But here’s the reality: whether you’re actively training or taking a break, you’re always paying a price—mentally, physically, and emotionally. The question is, are you making a deposit or a withdrawal?

Training as an Investment

Every time you train, you’re depositing into an account that pays lifelong dividends—better fitness, sharper focus, and increased resilience. But even the “not training” phases can be productive if approached intentionally.

The Hidden Value of Breaks

Taking a step back isn’t “lost time.” In fact, it’s an essential part of long-term growth. Structured breaks allow your body to recover, your mind to recharge, and your perspective to reset. This is called periodization—cycling through high-intensity training, technical refinement, and rest phases. Each phase plays a role in preventing burnout and maximizing gains.

During rest periods, you can also focus on complementary activities like mobility work, strength training, or even just reflecting on your progress. These moments off the mat are like pruning a tree—they create space for stronger growth.

The Cost of “Not Training”

Skipping training entirely without intention has its own price. Physically, you lose strength and endurance. Mentally, you miss the focus and stress relief that Jiu Jitsu provides.

Training doesn’t have to mean hours every day. A few classes a week can keep your account growing. Like financial planning, the consistency of your effort matters more than the size of the investment. Even when life gets hectic, showing up—however imperfectly—keeps you in the game.

The Hidden Cost of “Later”

The mindset of “I’ll train later” can be a trap. Every day you wait is another missed opportunity to improve. And the longer you wait, the harder it becomes to return. The best time to start training was yesterday; the second-best time is today.

Invest in Yourself

At El Dorado Hills Jiu Jitsu, we encourage you to think of training as a commitment to yourself. Like money in the bank, it builds security, confidence, and peace of mind. Whether you’re a seasoned practitioner or someone looking to start, each session strengthens the foundation for a healthier, more resilient you.

Consistency Over Perfection

Training doesn’t have to mean hours every day. Even one session a week keeps your progress moving forward. And when life demands a break, remember: downtime, when done right, is just another way of investing in yourself.

At El Dorado Hills Jiu Jitsu, we’re here for every phase of your journey. Whether you’re on the mats or taking the time to recharge, you’re building something valuable. Ready to invest in your growth? Join us this week and make a deposit!

The Value of Martial Arts: Why Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Is a Life-Impacting Practice

Martial arts have long been celebrated for their ability to transform lives, instilling discipline, confidence, and resilience in those who practice them. At El Dorado Hills Jiu Jitsu, we’ve seen firsthand how Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) becomes more than just a sport or self-defense system—it can shape how we eat, think, and behave.

Building Physical and Mental Strength

BJJ is often called “the gentle art” because it allows practitioners to overcome stronger opponents using technique and leverage rather than brute force. This focus on technique helps build a deep connection between body and mind.

• Physical Benefits: Improved strength, flexibility, cardio, and overall fitness.

• Mental Benefits: Problem-solving under pressure, improved focus, and stress relief.

As students learn to navigate the challenges on the mat, they develop the confidence to handle challenges off the mat, too.

Fostering a Growth Mindset

Jiujitsu is unique in that progress is earned through consistent effort and perseverance. There are no shortcuts—progress represents dedication and improvement. This teaches students that setbacks are opportunities to grow and refine their skills.

This mindset, known as kaizen (continuous improvement), extends to other areas of life, such as work, relationships, and personal development.

Creating a Community of Support

Martial arts thrive on a dedicated team. At El Dorado Hills Jiu Jitsu, our mats are a place where people from all walks of life come together to train, learn, and grow.

• Inclusive Environment: Whether you’re a beginner or an advanced competitor, everyone is welcome.

• Shared Goals: Training partners push each other to improve while fostering mutual respect and encouragement.

• Lasting Friendships: The bonds formed on the mat often carry over into lifelong friendships.

Practical Self-Defense Skills

In today’s world, self-defense is an invaluable skill. Jiujitsu equips practitioners with the tools to stay calm and protect themselves in real-life situations. It emphasizes control and de-escalation, ensuring safety for all parties involved.

A Path to Wellness for All Ages

From kids learning discipline and respect to adults finding an outlet for stress, jiujitsu offers something for everyone:

• Youth Programs: Teaching focus, humility, and bravery.

• Adults: A way to stay active, challenge yourself, and achieve personal goals.

• Older Practitioners: A low-impact way to maintain fitness and mobility while enjoying the mental stimulation of problem-solving.

Join the Journey

At El Dorado Hills Jiu Jitsu, we believe that martial arts are more than a workout—they’re a path to personal growth, resilience, and community. Whether you’re looking to build strength, develop discipline, or simply try something new, jiujitsu is a transformative experience that can enrich your life in ways you never imagined.

The Power of Practice: Learning Skills and Getting Fit at El Dorado Hills Jiu Jitsu

At El Dorado Hills Jiu Jitsu, we believe that learning a skill should go hand-in-hand with building strength, improving fitness, and cultivating discipline. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) offers a unique blend of mental and physical growth, where every step on the mat is a step toward mastering technique and transforming your body.

Why Skill-Based Training Matters

Skill-based training, like BJJ, keeps you engaged. Unlike repetitive workouts at the gym, every session brings new challenges. Whether it’s learning to escape side control, setting up a triangle, or perfecting your guard retention, the focus on technique makes every class feel purposeful.

When you’re practicing a skill, your mind and body are working together. This mental engagement sharpens focus and problem-solving abilities while simultaneously building functional strength, agility, and endurance. You’re not just burning calories—you’re gaining confidence and self-defense skills that can last a lifetime.

Fitness Through Repetition

Practice is the foundation of growth in Jiu Jitsu. Each time you drill a movement or spar with a partner, you’re improving muscle memory and fine-tuning your coordination. The beauty of this process is that fitness becomes a byproduct.

  • Strength: Grappling movements like sweeps and takedowns build full-body strength.
  • Cardio: Rolling (sparring) increases stamina as you flow through positions and transitions.
  • Flexibility: Techniques like guard retention improve flexibility and joint mobility.

As you focus on mastering techniques, you’ll notice your fitness improving almost effortlessly.

The Joy of Progress

The journey in BJJ is about incremental growth. One day, you’ll nail a sweep that seemed impossible weeks ago. These “aha!” moments fuel motivation and reinforce the value of consistent practice. And as your skills improve, so does your physical conditioning.

Our structured curriculum at El Dorado Hills Jiu Jitsu ensures that everyone, from beginners to advanced students, has a clear path for growth.

Ready to Get Started?

If you’re looking for a way to challenge your mind, get fit, and learn a valuable skill, Jiu Jitsu might be the perfect fit. We welcome students of all ages and fitness levels to join us on the mats.

Come in for a trial class and experience how practice can lead to both skill mastery and a stronger, healthier version of yourself.

Start your journey with us at El Dorado Hills Jiu Jitsu—where practice doesn’t just make perfect, it makes progress.

Learning Jiu Jitsu Like a Video Game: Leveling Up on the Mats

If you’ve ever picked up a controller to play your favorite video game, you’re familiar with the thrill of unlocking new levels, mastering challenging skills, and discovering hidden treasures. What if we told you that learning Jiu Jitsu at El Dorado Hills Jiu Jitsu is a lot like playing a video game? Whether you’re a casual gamer or a martial arts enthusiast, this perspective might just change the way you approach training on the mats.

The Beginner Level: Starting Your Journey

Every video game begins with a tutorial level. As a white belt, this is your time to learn the basics—how to grip, move, and defend yourself. Like navigating a new game, you might feel a little clumsy at first, but with consistent practice, those awkward movements become smooth and efficient.

At our gym, we structure our curriculum much like a well-designed game. Beginners work through foundational techniques, like learning guard passes or escapes, similar to earning basic power-ups. Each class is an opportunity to level up and improve your “stats” in strength, flexibility, and confidence.

Earning Experience Points (XP)

Every roll (live sparring session) is an XP boost. Some days, you might “win” by landing a sweep or submission. Other days, you “lose” but gain critical insights into what you need to work on. In Jiu Jitsu, there’s no such thing as failure—only opportunities to learn and grow.

Just like in a game, the more you show up and put in the work, the faster you accumulate XP. The best part? Training with different partners adds variety to your experience, much like encountering new characters or challenges in a game.

Unlocking Advanced Levels and Moves

As you progress through the belts, you’ll notice how your understanding of Jiu Jitsu deepens. Techniques that once felt complicated now seem intuitive, like unlocking a hidden combo or special ability in a game. For example, as a blue belt, you might start chaining moves together—setting up an armbar from a triangle or transitioning from a sweep to a guard pass.

The written standards curriculum at El Dorado Hills Jiu Jitsu helps guide your progress, ensuring that you’re not just randomly mashing buttons but developing a structured, comprehensive skillset.

Boss Battles and Tournaments

Every video game has boss battles, and in Jiu Jitsu, tournaments serve as your real-life equivalent. Facing opponents outside your gym challenges you to apply your skills under pressure. Win or lose, these experiences are invaluable for leveling up.

Even if competing isn’t your thing, every class presents its own “mini-bosses”—those teammates who push you to your limits and force you to problem-solve on the fly.

The Never-Ending Game

Unlike a video game, Jiu Jitsu doesn’t have a final level. Even black belts continue to learn and refine their craft. This endless journey is what makes Jiu Jitsu so rewarding. There’s always a new “move set” to explore, a different “quest” to embark on, and a deeper understanding of the art to unlock.

Join the Game

If you’re ready to start your Jiu Jitsu adventure, we invite you to join us at El Dorado Hills Jiu Jitsu. Our coaches and teammates are here to help you level up, one step at a time. Whether you’re a white belt just starting out or a seasoned practitioner looking for new challenges, there’s always room for you to press play and continue your journey on the mats.

Let’s train, level up, and have fun along the way!

Discipline as a Skill: Unlocking Your Potential

At El Dorado Hills Jiu Jitsu, we believe that discipline is not just a personality trait—it’s a skill that anyone can develop and refine. Whether you’re stepping onto the mat for the first time or training for a world-class competition, discipline is the key to unlocking your potential in Jiu Jitsu and beyond.

But what exactly is discipline, and how can we cultivate it in our training and daily lives?

What Is Discipline?

Discipline is the ability to stay committed to your goals, even when the journey gets tough. It’s choosing consistent effort over fleeting motivation and prioritizing long-term growth over immediate comfort.

In Jiu Jitsu, discipline means showing up to class even when you’re tired, drilling techniques repetitively to perfect them, and keeping your emotions in check during a match. Off the mat, it can mean maintaining a healthy lifestyle, setting clear goals, and consistently working toward them.

How to Practice Discipline

The good news is that discipline isn’t something you either have or don’t have—it’s a skill you can build with intentional practice. Here are a few ways to develop discipline both on and off the mat:

    1. Start Small

    Discipline begins with small, manageable habits. For example, commit to attending one additional class per week or set aside 10 minutes a day to review techniques. As you succeed in these smaller goals, you’ll build the confidence and momentum to tackle bigger challenges.

    2. Embrace Consistency

    Consistency is the foundation of discipline. It’s better to train regularly, even if it’s just a few times a week, than to overtrain sporadically. Consistency helps you establish routines that make discipline feel natural rather than forced.

    3. Focus on the Process

    Discipline is about falling in love with the journey, not just the outcome. Celebrate the small victories, like mastering a new guard pass or maintaining focus during a challenging roll.

    4. Practice Self-Control

    Discipline requires controlling impulses. On the mat, this might mean resisting the urge to muscle through a technique and instead focusing on precision. Off the mat, it could mean choosing meal prep over fast food or study time over Netflix.

    5. Learn from Setbacks

    Setbacks are inevitable, but disciplined individuals use them as opportunities to grow. Missed a class? Reflect on why and recommit. Lost a match? Analyze what went wrong and come back stronger.

    Why Discipline Matters in Jiu Jitsu

    Discipline isn’t just about improving your skills in Jiu Jitsu; it’s about becoming a better version of yourself. Here’s why it matters:

    • Resilience: Discipline helps you push through tough times and bounce back from failure.

    • Focus: It sharpens your ability to stay present and intentional in your training.

    • Growth: Discipline ensures steady, incremental improvement over time.

    • Leadership: As you develop discipline, you inspire those around you to do the same.

    A Lifelong Skill

    The beauty of discipline is that it transcends Jiu Jitsu. The habits you build on the mat—showing up, working hard, and staying consistent—will serve you in every area of life.

    So the next time you tie your belt, remember: every class, every drill, and every roll is an opportunity to practice discipline. It’s not about being perfect; it’s about showing up and doing the work.

    At El Dorado Hills Jiu Jitsu, we’re here to help you develop the discipline to succeed—not just in Jiu Jitsu, but in everything you set out to achieve.

    Ready to Start?

    Join us on the mat and begin your journey toward greater discipline and self-mastery. Your future self will thank you.

    Many Paths, One Goal: Avoiding Tribalism in Jiu Jitsu

    At El Dorado Hills Jiu Jitsu, we see students from all walks of life come together to pursue a common goal: growth on and off the mats. Whether you’re here to develop self-defense skills, get in shape, or compete at the highest levels, there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to success.

    Jiu Jitsu is a constantly evolving art, with countless techniques, styles, and philosophies. But with so much variety, it’s easy to fall into the trap of tribalism—clinging to one “right way” while dismissing others. To truly grow, it’s essential to avoid tribalism and think for yourself.

    Tribalism in Jiu Jitsu

    In Jiu Jitsu, tribalism often shows up in debates like:

    • Gi vs. Nogi: Some say traditional gi training is essential, while others argue that nogi is more realistic.

    • Old School vs. Modern: Should you focus on classic techniques or the latest trends like leg locks?

    • Competition vs. Self-Defense: Is it better to train for tournaments or real-world situations?

    At EDH Jiu Jitsu, we believe the answer isn’t one or the other—it’s both, or whatever works best for you. Everyone’s journey is different, and Jiu Jitsu offers a variety of tools to help you reach your goals. The more open you are to learning, the more you’ll grow.

    Thinking for Yourself on the Mats

    While learning from your coaches and teammates is critical, you’ll get the most out of your training when you take ownership of your journey. Here’s how you can think for yourself at EDH Jiu Jitsu:

    1. Ask Questions

    If you’re not sure why a technique works or how it applies to your game, ask. Understanding the “why” behind what you’re learning will help you develop deeper insights.

    2. Experiment

    Jiu Jitsu is about trial and error. Try different grips, setups, and strategies during live training. Some things will work; others won’t. Both outcomes are valuable lessons.

    3. Learn from Everyone

    Whether you’re training with a white belt or a black belt, every roll offers an opportunity to learn. Stay open-minded and look for something to take away from each partner.

    4. Reflect and Adapt

    After class, think about what worked and what didn’t. Adjust your approach based on your experiences and the feedback you receive.

    A Place for All Goals

    One of the things that sets El Dorado Hills Jiu Jitsu apart is the diversity of our team. Some of our students train for competitions, while others are here for fitness or self-defense. Some love the traditional gi, while others thrive in nogi.

    No matter what your goal is, our coaches are here to guide you and help you find the path that fits your journey. We encourage exploration and critical thinking, so you can develop a style that’s uniquely your own.

    Final Thoughts

    Jiu Jitsu is an art, a science, and a journey. There’s no single way to achieve mastery, and the beauty of training at El Dorado Hills Jiu Jitsu is that you don’t have to choose just one path. What’s important is that we find a way to collaborate and work together as a team.

    By avoiding tribalism and committing to thinking for yourself, you’ll discover a richer, more fulfilling experience on the mats. So keep an open mind, embrace the process, and trust in your ability to create your own path.

    We’ll be here to support you every step of the way.
