Episode 209 - Rules For Jiu-Jitsu #8: Age Isn't Just A Number

From Chewjitsu

May 30, 2022 · 54:37

On this episode we discuss whether Jiu-Jitsu black belts who are older and struggle with and even lose to lower belts, are still considered a legit black belt.

We discuss the aging grappler, and how age impacts mindset and performance on the mats.

We also chat about adjusting your mindset, changing your training, and also why and how to humble yourself.

We answer the question of what are the qualities of a legit black belt, why hiring coaches to improve aspects of your game/diet are vital, and dealing with the inevitable changes you go through over time.

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gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.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.
