This special is a rapid-fire AMA where I answer your questions on jiu-jitsu, coaching, competing, gym ownership, family life, burnout, bad ideas, good albums, worse warm-ups, and everything in between. From how to suck less as a white belt, to training 2–3x a week, to biggest failures, future goals, and what actually matters after the medals fade.Some answers are tactical. Some are honest. A few are probably controversial.All of them are real.Hit play, start the year smarter, and take one idea into training this week.Sign up for ISAJJxJiu-Jitsu for Imbeciles, feat.
