What is the best type of training for a jiu-jitsu match, which uses both cardio endurance and short bursts of explosive moves?

Hello,

Lots of HIIT training, MMA training, Cross Training and of course more rolling on the mat. Good luck!

There really is no “best” type. When it comes to competitive sports like martial arts, well balanced cross training is wise. As to specifics for jiu jitsu, you would wise to take each movement that you are able to use and break it down into the muscle actions necessary. Then find alternative ways to train those muscles outside of your jiu jitsu practice. Don’t forget that recovery is very important between exercise sessions.

Try the following, and they should be done consecutively:

Snatches
Deadlifts
Deep squats
Bench Press
Pull-up
Row
Jumps Squats
Power push-ups

Rest and repeat.

The goal of this is not only power and strength, but it should also keep your heart rate up. Rest between exercises as needed. As you progress, reduce the amount of time you rest between exercises. Feel free to Play around with them and add to them if need be.

Hope you find this helpful!

Look into MMA conditioning. They are really pioneering new sport martial arts conditioning adaptations. Unlike boxing or kickboxing, the sprint paced matches one trains for in these environments should mesh nicely.

Both aerobic and anaerobic training should be included.
For cardio training, running hills is very good for cardio endurance.
Weight training for jiu-jitsu is also very important and the primary goal here would be to develop muscular endurance by doing complexes or circuits using the same weight for many different exercises back to back.
In martial arts we usually incorporate the basic exercises for each body part, for example pull-ups for the back, curls for the biceps, military presses for the shoulders and squats for the legs. Squats are particularly important because they strengthen your legs which are responsible for maintaining your base.
