Can I get in shape by doing Brazilian jiu-jitsu alone?
I've been going to BJJ classes 3 times a week for about 2 months. I'm seeing some strength gains but wondering if I should add cardio or weight training on top of it to get better results.

BJJ alone will definitely get you in shape, but you'll see way faster and more balanced results if you throw in some dedicated cardio and strength work on your off days! I've picked up a ton of muscle from grappling these past few years, but adding runs and weights made a massive difference in my overall conditioning and power on the mat.
