Bernardo recently posted a video showing some techniques he was using for strengthening and conditioning before he got a personal trainer. This sequence is amazing for grappling sports indeed and even if you don't realize it you are performing all of these movements while grappling and some are primary moves you use pretty often. Also all of the techniques are possible to perform inside a room with minimum space.
Always use what you can handle, don't go first try with 40kg . Start with very light weight and work it up slowly. Keep you back straight and your core engaged.
