How long do you train/prepare for a grappling tournament. Im just curious to know. Obvisiously training long and more is better, but i wanted to know if a full month of good training is worth a grappling tournament. Its just a NAGA tournament in the beginning of August. But im starting training tomorow. Up until then. How long do you guys or would you guys training for an event like NAGA or Grapplers Quest, or something similiar.

Most MMA training camps seem to be roughly 6 weeks.. mind you these are guys who really are just getting back into shape and rehoning skills they already have.. a grappler if you in good shape.. I'd sey 3-4 week is all you should need.. not counting your regualr training through out there year.. but a training camp is not really where you learn new skills its where you hone what you have and get your cardio back up ..
