Скачать или смотреть Missed a Few Weeks of Jiu Jitsu - And It Almost Wrecked My Body

It doesn’t take months. Just a few weeks of missed training, and suddenly your joints ache, your cardio tanks, and your timing is gone. This is what happens when you’re an older grappler and you stop moving.

In this video, I break down exactly how taking time off from Jiu Jitsu impacted my body; the pain, the stiffness, the slow mental fog that crept in, and what I had to do to get back on track.

This isn’t a motivational speech. It’s a warning.

Because for older grapplers, movement isn’t optional. It’s survival.
