Thanks! I mostly focus on pull ups anyway because I could never do them in grade school and I think pulls and swings have the biggest carry over in bjj.
There’s a whole list of stuff that I can’t remember but the big ones are come dressed, because dressing room is closed, temp check at the door, and severely limited training partners. In the old days if you went to 4-5 classes in a week you would have sparred with 20-30 people maybe more if people were training for a comp. Now at the most it is like 3 people. But who knows if any of that helps, I haven’t heard of a school having an outbreak and everything seemed fine this fall playing basketball but I do limit my exposures. I only workout at either my empty work gym or I drive 30 minutes from my place to my parents basement. I don’t go to the grocery store or restaurants. I haven’t been back to a commercial gym and I don’t think I will for awhile, but I rarely went before the pandemic.
If something changes, I will reevaluate going to bjj and my goals for this year. I don’t really need to train, it’s just for inter-relationship bragging rights.
