Stepping onto the mats for your first no-gi BJJ competition is both exciting and nerve-wracking. It's completely normal to feel a mix of anticipation and anxiety. But with the right preparation, strategy, and BJJ training gear, you'll feel ready to compete—and even thrive. Here’s a comprehensive guide to help you walk into that tournament confident and well-equipped.
Six to eight weeks before: Begin tailoring your training to competition-style sparring—focus on takedowns, scrambles, and transitions.
Two weeks before: Start tapering volume. Prioritize technique refinement, visualization drills, and mental preparation.
Day before: Keep training light—stretch, run through your warm-up, and iron out any gear issues. Rest well.
Primary layout:
Nogi BJJ rash guards: High-quality, comfortable fit is a must.
BJJ fight shorts or spats: Ensure flexibility and durability.
Backup set:
Bring an extra nogi rashguard and shorts—accidents happen.
Extras:
Tape, mouthguard, knee sleeves (as allowed), flip-flops, and water bottle.
