Bulletproof For BJJ Podcast

Episode 319: Nose beers, steroids and Lady boys! Sounds like the Hang Over movie but as entertaining as the rockstar, influencer life appears- is this good for the culture of BJJ? Openly promoting steroid use to make money is questionable, some might say it's just honest and real. But is this the type of person you want teaching your kids BJJ class?
In the rush to be entertaining and keep up with social media trends Jiu-Jitsu has more and more of it's top performers functioning as Rockstars more than role models which makes sense if you are trying to stay in the spotlight as long as possible. But the spotlight fades fast! Has the need to be popular on social media made BJJ top practitioners lose purpose? Or has modern BJJ just grown up differently and are certain values a thing of the past?

This is a candid conversation about the rollercoaster of injury and recovery where JT asks Joey about the mental marathon of maintaining a sunny disposition amidst the aches, and how my post-injury ritual is more comforting than a child's cherished band-aid. Dealing with injury is part of the game and this is just the first chapter...

Episode 318: Do you do Gi pull-ups? Do you know where to start in the gym? Joey and JT talk about the many mistakes made by grapplers in the weight room, and how they should be training.

Have you ever followed your curiosity and ended up down a weird rabbit hole?! JT has been caught up in an adult learning odyssey. He stumbled upon Brilliant.org and has gotten bitten by the learning bug, found himself doing high school algebra... and liking it.
This discussion gets into a different side of human psychology where being internally driven makes all the difference in what you enjoy doing as an adult compared to being forced to learn it as a teenager. Maybe this is something you already do or has it been something you have always wanted to try- this could be your good omen to learn something new, might change your life...

Episode 316: Are you the type to share the love? You find something great and want to get your mates in on a good thing! JT & Joey came up with the Bulletproof Academy Subscription to help Gym owners keep their students fit, strong and healthy.

This program gives Gym owners an easy way to connect their students with a supportive network of Jiu-Jitsu folks as well as the tools and resources to help you get back on track while providing the BJJ specific programs that have proven to help grapplers around the world stay on the mats.

Joey opens up about years of sinus struggles and how mouth breathing has affected his sleep and general energy levels. Better breathing has profound connections to jaw development, facial structure, and better sleep. Joey shares his insight from a life hindered by mouth breathing to discovering a new liberating transformation from a simple procedure and the effective practice of nighttime mouth taping. We also go deep into the waters of jaw development, discussing how our modern lifestyles have altered our dental destiny, often leading to the common rite of passage—wisdom teeth removal. Joey discusses his Medical advisor Cole from the Happy Kids Clinic and how certain developmental changes can affect behaviour, shedding light on an alternative angle to understanding ADHD.
