Bit older but still savage and good to roll? If you are coming to Jiu-Jitsu later in life there are some important boxes you need to check before you wreck yourself. BJJ is not a fitness solution even though it is a tonne of fun. When you are doing BJJ as an older grappler you can't get away with same bad habits you had as a 21 year old. JT & Joey let you know exactly what you need to prioritise so you can feel great on the mat and also in your day to day life.

Victor Estima joins the show to discuss overcoming setbacks in competition, building confidence in your game and the importance of not comparing yourself to others. He also provides great technical insight on the closed guard!

produced by @absurdjunk the simple men talk about jitz. and s**t. Here's a little bit about The Simple Men: Nicky Rod, widely known as the Black Belt Slayer, hail’s from New Jersey, the land of pizza & biceps. He is a two time ADCC silver medalist, an EBI absolute world champion, as well as the world's most beautiful grappler. Ethan Crelinsten, clearly the most intelligent and most good looking of the the three Simple Men, is a two time ADCC trials winner, as well as placing 1st in thousands of other tournaments. His grappling prowess goes far beyond what Nicky rod and Damien hope to acquire. As you listen to the podcast, pay most attention to Ethan as he will most likely be saying the coolest shit. Damien Anderson is an ADCC Trials Bronze Medalist with multiple wins over multiple black belt world champions. Currently ranked 8th in the world at 145lbs and 9th at 155lbs. Also has ownership rights of Ethan Crelinsten Nicky Rod, Damien Anderson & Ethan Crelinsten are based in Austin, Texas and roll daily at B-Team Jiu Jitsu.
