Question Dilema

Shall I train wrestling to amplify my jiu jitsu?

Long story short, I'm 32, 6'3 around 125kg . Without counting Kendo and Hema i started martial arts in 2018 with MMA, later found out the importance of grappling and how comfortable and satisfying it was to train it. Now I'm thinking if i can add wrestling to compliment it. I was between this and kickboxing but i wanted to avoid the headache of getting hit with big pillows 😄

Plus i love the explosive power and agility of wrestlers.

Sounds like you have your mind made up, what’s stopping you?

Well nothing really, it's just time and money are limited...

What exercises are you doing outside of it ? For example in CrossFit recently i focus on squats, rowing and farmer walk for the sake of these 2 sports.
