cardio help. (its my first event)

[matyboy]

So I have my first jiu-jitsu tourney in over a month. I want to know what kind of cardio I should work on. Should I do sprints? Work on distance running? Do both? What kind of workouts does everyone else do?

Do both but focus more on shorter distance/high intensity stuff. I alternate between sprints and LSD cardio. The slower/longer sessions help remove the lactate from the muscles and are a good form of active recovery.

Apart from regular BJJ training, I do Tabata thrusters and some Crossfit workouts after lifting weights.
