#306 Steve McKinney: Life Hacks of a 63 Year Old Black Belt

From I Suck At Jiu Jitsu Show

My dad Steve and I have been training jiu-jitsu together for almost 17 years.

In that time we have seen a lot of people who "are in it for the long haul" quit. Whether from injury, life changes, or simply being as soft as butter we have seen so many people give up on their dream of "training jiu jitsu forever."

Today we reveal every secret of Steve's longevity AND we offend everyone in the process.

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gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.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