Are you over 30 and just started BJJ? Bit older but still savage and good to roll? If you are coming to Jiu-Jitsu later in life there are some important boxes you need to check before you wreck yourself.
BJJ is not a fitness solution even though it is a tonne of fun. When you are doing BJJ as an older grappler you can't get away with same bad habits you had as a 21 year old. JT & Joey let you know exactly what you need to prioritise so you can feel great on the mat and also in your day to day life.

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
