Elbows Tight Podcast: The Beginners Journey Through Jiu-Jitsu

Adolfo Foronda - Overcoming Procrastination and Self-Doubt


Listen Later

Adolfo hosts Forever White Belt's trailblazing podcast and a two-stripe blue belt under Tryfon Stathopoulos at North Bay Jiu-Jitsu. 

Adolfo's story is incredibly relatable to many practitioners. His journey began in his early 40s, but he had to take a 4-year hiatus due to some serious medical problems. Finally, after recovering and feel up to the tasks again, Adolfo started looking for another academy to train at.

Like many of our stories, Adolfo found himself "doing drive-bys past academies" with his toes hanging over the edge of jumping back into the cosmos of jiu-jitsu. He would finally leap of faith and stopped procrastinating when a school was located within a few minutes from his work.

Adolfo is very open and vulnerable about his struggles with self-doubt, difficulties learning and retaining information, and not being "that guy" in class asking too many questions. He puts it all out there for people to relate and find common ground in their journies to his.

Be sure to check out his show Forever White Belt and follow all of his social media to stay up to date with him.
