4.8 out of 5 stars from 655 ratings
  • Intelligent and Thoughtful

    One of my favourite podcasts as a BJJ and a scientist. The host is intelligent and is able to articulate concepts and ideas easily, so that they make sense without any visual content. We are spoilt with good BJJ podcasts. It’s a golden age. But Strenuous Life is one of the best. Highly recommended
