  • Ep. 48 - Banana Hands - Protect your hands as a Grappler (BJJ - Gi/no-gi/wrestling)
    Feb 11 2024

    In this episode, we discuss what no one ever talks about, the experience your hands will have in grappling. We talk about what Banana Hands means in grappling, how they develop and strategies to avoid getting them.

    I came up with this term because I think it helps bring attention to this subject in a way that can be remembered and so that we can start discussing it (seriously ). If you hear people talking about Banana Hands elsewhere, remember you heard it here first, lol.
