I loved this. Very inspirational. I especially liked your take on the benefits of Jiu Jitsu. It really resonated with me. I’m a 56 year old white belt with a year and a half of training so far. I am definitely getting comfortable with being uncomfortable… lol. It doesn’t bother me as much and getting smashed has become less of a big deal. I really appreciate your channel and content. Thank you. 🙏

Hi Rick! You are an inspiration ❤️! Am 68 yrs old male started training December of 2022 now a 3 stripes white belt actively training 2hrs per day 5 days a week; with several injuries I got since started Jiu-Jitsu I think I'm beginning to love it

[@exterMEnator83]

If you're training that much you should already be at the blue belt transition to purple belt. I don't know who's your instructor or professor is but that's not cool.

67 year old 2 stripe blue belt here. Just remember, tap early, tap often, stay in the game, and be humble

Love the videos! Always great insight, very fun to listen to your thoughts.

[@tomtrader6559]

Awesome info as always brother!

[@BlueKimura]

Excellent. I enjoy these Q and A segments. Keep on rolling them out sir.

[@kracylatin01]

Love the channel: You are on point with all the segments. I'm a 3rd strip purple belt 53 year old and I have been adding strength training and l flexibility training. I'm the oldest member in the Academy trying to achieve my brown belt . Any tips you can give me towards getting my brown belt? Keep up the good work.

[@NextScamdemic]

Don't understand why no-gi doesn't have ranks. Just have a belt that stays in your bag for promotions. Or colored rashguard, etc

[@dimitardobrev3296]

How about the film "The Raid", ever seen that?

[@GrapplingAutist]
