Hi guys!
I’ve just returned tô practice bjj but i confess it’s been really difficult because of my lack of height and specially strength. How do you deal with it? Dont you feel that bjj techniques dont contemplate ppl like me?!
BJJ techniques are specifically designed for your situation— using leverage and positioning to offset power differences.
If there are attributes it’s hard to live without in BJJ, they are speed, agility, and body awareness, but good practitioners can help you around whatever you’re missing
You can also do strength training (weights but not too heavy; body weight exercises, etc.) to become stronger.

Work on defence, especially framing and half guard. You need good defence before you can work on attacks, and it can take a while to get that right.

Thanks for sharing that! I like how you broke it down to defense and attack. It makes the learning process of BJJ more comprehensible!
