In today's video, I'll talk about the #1 mistake I see BJJ "Athletes" make regarding their athletic careers.

I try to avoid this and it's an uncomfortable conversation for up-and-coming athletes in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

If you participate in sports Jiu-Jitsu, then what do you think?

I'm going to try to do 4 comps per year. I'm just a 35 year old dad white belt, with about a year of training. We'll see how this goes.

If you consider yourself an athlete ( which usually means your full time) you also should be keeping your post career in your mind. I’m still looking to win bigger tournaments like adcc opens pans etc for at minimum my future academy or getting hired as a head coach . (Heck even for master divisions it’s still a tough medal to get so it’s helpful .), also things like seminars private lessons instructionals etc like it or not people see winning as important..

I wouldnt label this as immature, more like simply not knowing how its a job not just competing. I trained with pro boxers years and years ago, and my day began with 6 mile jog each morning, then hit the S&C gym, and later at night, sparring. At first, it was fun to have that run with pro boxers, until I had to help some of em prep for their pro fights, outch.
The morning jog became colder and colder and colder, sparring more intense and guys were far more technical as time went by. I'm 52 now, and wish I could go and compete BJJ. But I will no longer have my doctor's medical clearance cause my knees are f&%$/, my shoulders are f/"% and waiting for few other potential injuries to rear their heads. So I roll for fun.
