Brazilian jiu-jitsu has helped many people reach their fitness goals, lose weight, and get in good shape. Everybody loves a success story, and the BJJ academy is the home of many in fitness and life. But how exactly does BJJ aid in weight loss?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You must eat and drink fewer calories than you burn to lose weight. This is known as being in a caloric deficit. BJJ offers little help in terms of diet, but it is an amazing and intense workout that will burn calories and help you lose weight.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n As good a workout as BJJ is<\/a>, it won’t be enough to get you ripped. You will need a proper diet and strength training, but do you know how to eat and train for healthy and sustained weight loss?<\/p>\n\n\n\n The formula for losing or gaining weight is straightforward, at least on the grand scale. To lose weight, you need to be in a caloric deficit, meaning you need to consume fewer calories than you spend throughout the day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Of course, there is a big difference in where the calories come from and many effective diets, but the principle remains the same. Eat less than you burn, and you will lose weight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can do this in a couple of ways. You either reduce the calories from food and drink or continue eating the same amount but start moving more, be it BJJ, walking, running, lifting weights, or countless other options. <\/p>\n\n\n\n There are a lot of different factors that determine weight loss, like hormone levels and genetics, but they are strictly individual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We will touch more on the diet part later, but first, let’s see how BJJ fits into the equation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/a>The Weight Loss Formula<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
