276 - Loyalty, Mental Strength, and Pressure Passing With 4 x World Champion Dominyka Obelenyte
From The Strenuous Life Podcast
Dominyka Obelenyte was born in Lithuania, emigrated to the United States at a very young age, and became a 4 time Pan-Am and World Championship gold medalist.
In this interview we talk technique, injury recovery, mindset, effective training, the use and misuse of 'loyalty' in the BJJ world, mental resilience and more. I think you'll really like this one.
