Do you watch or study Jiu-Jitsu? 👀🥋

Since I’m a Jiu-Jitsu nerd, I prefer to study more than just watch. I love breaking down matches and sharing lessons — whether in classes at @gdjiujitsuacademy or at seminars like yesterday @riversbjj in Lawrence, Kansas.

In this short clip, I break down one of my matches from the 2025 @ibjjf Pan Championship and highlight the importance of awareness when the referee says “parou!” to reset a position.

If you want the full breakdown, it’s already available inside The BJJ Mental Coach Masters Community — a space created for Masters competitors to sharpen their mindset, access online courses, join live classes, and get exclusive content designed to help you perform as your most authentic self on and off the mats.

Master BJJ Competitor vs. Overtraining — Free Webinar
🎥 Premiere: Saturday, September 20th, 2025 – 8:00 AM MST
📍 Channel: The BJJ Mental Coach on YouTube

Have you ever trained so hard for a tournament that instead of peaking, your body broke down? That’s exactly what happened to me during my How High Can You Fly? project — and it cost me at Master Worlds.

In this webinar, I’ll share my story and break down Mental Mistake #15: Overtraining — one of the biggest hidden traps Masters competitors face. You’ll learn:

✅ The difference between overreaching (productive) and overtraining (destructive)
✅ How to spot early physical, performance, and mental symptoms
✅ Prevention strategies: periodization, recovery, nutrition, sleep
✅ What to do if you’re already burned out

This isn’t just about medals — it’s about authenticity. How to show up as your truest self on the mats and in life.

👉 Stay until the end, where I’ll also introduce The BJJ Mental Coach Masters Community — an online space with courses, e-books, live classes, and peer support to help you become your best, most authentic version.
