The Winston Churchill Institute of Scientifical Analysations has recently completed a study and come to the conclusion that jiu jitsu is “very similar to wrestling, but not as hard.”
The study is based on data drawn from a number of smaller published reports, including:
- “Jiu Jitsu Players Overwhelmingly Skip Warmups” (2013)
- “Most BJJ Players Own a GTX1080 or higher PC Graphics Card” (2016)
- “How Strong Grips Mask Total Lack of Basic Strength” (2003)
- Fitness: Overrated? (2015)
- “High School Wrestlers Stronger than Most Brown Belts” (2011)
- “Number of Jiu Jitsu Guys with Over 55 Games in their Steam Account Reaches All-Time High” (2014)
When the information is looked at as a whole, the study finds that jiu jitsu is basically wrestling, for wimps.
