In this week’s episode we sat down with Max Viney, a Brazilian Jiu-jitsu (BJJ) black belt and multiple-time state and national champion who’s competed on the biggest stages in the sport. Max now brings that grappling expertise into the AFL and AFLW world, helping players gain a real physical edge through principles and techniques that translate directly to on-field performance.

Join Big Bros, Jeremy and Ilan, as they sit down with Max to explore what drew him to BJJ, and how the lessons from the mats have shaped his mindset on life, performance, and career. Expect to learn why BJJ is such an effective martial art, how growing up in a football-obsessed household sharpened Max’s inner competitive drive, how he translates elite grappling into practical tools AFL players can actually use on game day, the most underrated mindset lessons he learned from grappling, what consulting with AFL players has taught him about pressure, ego and performance, Max’s best advice for building real confidence and staying steady when nerves hit, his best tips for AFL tackling, and much more!
