I'm a BJJ athlete, I don't compete anymore, but when I used to I trained Full Body 2 times a week, that's plenty enough, the majority of your time should be spent in the court, not in the weight room.

No problem. If you ever want high quality information, there's this guy on YouTube "Will Ratelle", he's a trainer for all sorts of athletes, very quality content. His dunks are crazy too for the amount of muscle he has
