Functional Strength on the Bottom
Duration:
45 minutes 
In jiujitsu and wrestling think about how many times that your body is applying even force. What I mean by this is that in jiujitsu while one arm is applying force the other is blocking a hip or cupping a bicep, etc. Strength and force are applied in different and unorthodox position especially on the bottom applying proper force is a matter of functionality timing and rhythm. Less than absolute strength it is patience and stamina that win the day in grappling.
