  • Knee surgery

    Love the podcast. Went back to episode 1 and am listening to the whole catalog. Since I tore my acl as a white belt, does that fast track me to purple belt? Or do I have to tear the other one when I get to purple belt to make it official?

Episode 108 - Beards, Elf Books & Gym Egos | The Funniest Jiu-Jitsu Podcast You’ll Hear This Week
Q: How do you get past your ego and how do you feel getting past it improves your jiu-jitsu?
You get past it by losing and generously placing yourself in positions against tougher opponents; it builds growth and awareness in martial arts.
Episode 106 - MMA Drama & 90s Nostalgia Collide
Q: How do you build confidence when coming back after an injury?
You have to build it off of reps and trust your body, as it can take time to feel mentally ready again after recovering from an injury.
Episode 106 - MMA Drama & 90s Nostalgia Collide
Q: Would you throw your match if your professor asked you to?
No, I wouldn't take a dive, even if it was for a professor, as it would mean a lack of respect towards my own achievements.
Episode 105 - Avoiding the Blue Belt Blues | Blue Belt Survival Guide
Q: Is it okay to say 'yes daddy' during rolling?
It's not recommended; that phrase typically carries a different connotation and might be viewed as inappropriate on the mats.
