138 - National Football League Yoga Instructor Jessica Huneycutt
From The Strenuous Life Podcast
Jessica Huneycutt is the yoga instructor for the New Orleans Saints National Football League team.
In this episode we go deep into how Yoga and other techniques are used at an elite level to help athletes recover as fast as possible, prevent injuries, and prolong their careers. We also talk about surviving sexual assault, travelling to India, living in ashrams, doing yoga for improved jiu-jitsu performance, and her own personal BJJ training.
This is a really good one - I hope you enjoy it and share it with someone else who might benefit from the information in the conversation!
