I decided to check out this video today and it is very interesting that these were the same benefits I had discussed with my wife as to why I want our children to train BJJ, even if they never compete. I have seen so much growth in all of them character wise and seeing them learn how to problem solve has been a blessing. I think my personal challenge was learning to change up how I rolled to conserve energy and strength because of burning out my forearms from grips or trying to use pure strength to "finish" submissions so much when I competed as a white belt. This led me to learning about using cupping grips, hooks with various joints like my elbows, ankles, and the crook of my knees rather than relying on gi grips.

Great insight! Thanks for watching and sharing your experience.
Saad, you were a terrible white belt 😂. But you had that I dont care how bad I am attitude so I knew you'd be a black belt one day.
Thanks my friend! Always great to hear from you.
