Roll on the clock you compete on.
Most academies roll five or six minute rounds, and most adult competition matches fall in that range too. Training on the same clock teaches you when to push for the pass and when to hold position, which matters more in the last minute than any single technique.
The timer beeps with ten seconds left, at the end of the roll and when rest ends, so nobody has to watch the clock from the wall. The positional pick runs shorter rounds for guard or escape work.
Film one full roll and mmaGPT returns timestamped notes on what went wrong plus a drill to fix it, usually in 30 to 45 seconds. First session free, no card needed.
FAQ
BJJ rolling timer questions.
- A BJJ roll in most academies is five or six minutes with about one minute of rest. Competition match length depends on belt and age division, so check your event rules and train on that number before a tournament.
- Five or six rolls is a normal BJJ class for most people. Beginners often do fewer and sit out a round when they are gassed, which is fine.
- Yes, the timer runs in the browser on iPhone and Android with nothing to download. Tap Start once so your phone allows the beeps.
