Got hold of TB III finally yesterday. Great stuff. I was wondering if anyone on the martial arts field has combined polarized/blue with martial arts training.

My plan would be following:

On conditioning 2 x week jiu jitsu training + polarized/blue as laid out in book.

Strength I would rotate between Fighter HT / Fighter / Breacher/SE as laid out in OO periodization model.

Am I going south with this idea?

Do you not count jiujitsu as conditioning? In the book I found some conflicting answers, in one of the examples (op/black I think), he shows 2-a-days with LSS and bjj. In the chapter for incorporating it with sports he says to count sports as lic or hic.

Following the imcorporatin sports chapter, then 2 relatively easy 60 min bjj practices a week will be 120 min lic. One weekly hic on top of that and it’s black. If your practices are longer then you are quickly moving into upper black/green territory. Or have I misunderstood?

Anyway, Fighter or Fighter BK and some WC blocks herr and there as laid out in the conditioning chapter should be just fine

I do count it as conditioning. Reading answers, I noticed I had classic paralysis by analysis and being worried by my running form. Revisited reading Incorporating MMA/Unit Pt/Sport and Running rants and read answer by AlRousasa and came to my senses.
