We all get like this at times. Plateaus are not unheard of in grappling sports, and this is why it is important to remember that grappling is meant to be fun. If you’re not enjoying it as much as you used to, then relax, and remember your performance is not that important. It’s better to roll loosely and freely, remembering that this is just a hobby right now! Explain to your coach how you feel, they’ve been there and will always have some words of encouragment for you. If you still have trouble, try taking a break for a few sessions. Get your head back in gear, but don’t wait too long!
