Our mission

Become the leading authority of physical optimization of the BJJ practitioner. 

Our core values

  • Research driven - we base our work on research and results. Either research done by others or results we have seen from our own clients that provides evidence a method works.
  • Many paths - we accept that there are many ways to reach the same goal in strength & conditioning, that our methods are not they only way and that we can always learn from other ways of doing things.
  • Continuous improvement - we strive for continuous improvement in everything we do. No detail is too small as consistent small changes add up very quickly to make a significant difference.
  • Longevity & function - we aim to build Jiu Jitsu practitioners and athletes into better functioning humans, keeping them working on and off the mat for as long as possible, favouring longevity over short term performance.

How?

By providing strength and conditioning coaching tailored to the needs of the individual Jiu Jitsu practitioner and athlete, in the form of in person training or digitally delivered training plans supported by videos and video calls, as well as providing articles, products, tips and advice via BJJStrength.com and it's various social media channels.

Why?

BJJstrength.com is the brain child of Laurence Griffiths as after training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for several years he became frustrated with the lack of strength and conditioning resources focused specifically for the Jiu Jitsu athlete, how much bad information was out there and the fact that there was not one place where someone practicing Jiu Jitsu can get all their strength and conditioning questions answered. BJJstrength.com is his attempt to give the Jiu Jitsu practitioner and athlete effective strength training programs, advice and content that will complement rather than hinder their progress in the sport.

About Laurence Griffiths

​Born in Wales in 1982, as with most Welsh men's destiny, his early sporting life focused on the sport of Rugby where he played for several local clubs from the age of 7 onwards, then eventually captaining his university side and also playing for Wales in Rugby League at an amateur level. 

Back in 2007 he switched his boots for a Gi and trained at the Roger Gracie Academy under 1st degree Black Belt Cesar in London since the first time he went to the academy, where he received his Black Belt in December 2015. He now trains under Professor Tom Cronin, in Temecula, fighting Carlson Gracie Team. He competes on a regular basis and has medalled in several major IBJJF International and National tournaments.
