I have been trying to get a home drill routine together. I stay pretty busy; college, work, my son, and CJJ, BJJ, and MMA Classes. I want to get at less 15-30 mins in a day. Anyone got some ideas?

I would love to train with Fabio Gurgel from Team Alliance. I know he is not he greatest, but I like the way he teaches. I have a few videos and books by him and they have upped my game. He seem to be a calm clear and attentive instructor. I trained at Bloomsburg University in Pa. for one year doing Judo. I Now train in Watsontown Pa. doing Jujitsu, and have just started taking Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and MMA classes. I think the best gi's; well I dont think it matters just dont get your ass kicked.

Staying relaxed and focused is key, my first tournament I was so nervous my thoughts were scrambled and I wasn't thinking enough.... I had only been trainin 3 months, still got 4th

have fun with it. dont rush, don't force, and stick to what makes you comfortable. move with your opponent and you will most likely find yourself in the better position

The biggest mistake I made in my 1st tournament was that I didn't relax and I rushed everything and got caught. I would say try to relax as best as you can, and take your time. If you slow yourself down you'll be able to hear your corner (which I didn't) and you won't burn yourself out. Andy is right too. Have a game plan. If you're comfortable on your back and with sweeps but not at takedowns, consider pulling guard and work from there. That's my 2 cents. Good luck bro.
