Today I chat with Liz Beaver. She's a fitness writer, BJJ practitioner, adventurer, mental health advocate and self-described 'cantankerous bitch'.

It's a wide-ranging yet deeply personal conversation in which we go right for the jugular in many important topics including

  • Workout design - Balancing work and workouts using time management - Are there people who shouldn't train in martial arts - Mental health, depression, anxiety and fitness - Suggestions to help overcome mental health issues - The critical role that getting outside plays - Dealing with injuries - And much more Follow Liz on Instagram at @ironbeaverfitness

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gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.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