Ep. 230: Old Bastard Injury Prevention, feat. Mike Mahaffey

This week we're joined again by Mike Mahaffey! In addition to being "the Old Bastard Jiu-Jitsu guy," Mike is a black belt under Chris Haueter. In this episode, Mike shares how all of us (especially us older grapplers) can reduce our risk of injury while remaining effective at Jiu-Jitsu.
